My item was rec'd today and I absolutely LOVE IT! This seller has been the BEST throughout the entire process!! The item exceeded my expectations, was exactly as described and then some!! It was packaged exceptionally well, shipping was quick on the seller's part but slow on USPS part due to holidays I'm sure. Hats off to this seller for great communication and kindness dealing with my frustrations! Would absolutely do business again!! It was worth the wait!! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!

Arrived earlier than expected given the holidays. Very well packaged and arrived in great shape. Shipping cost was reasonable. Exactly as shown and described in the photos. Really nice a skillet and glad to have this Canadian skillet to my collection. Hard to find nice clean skillets like this one. Thanks tnosek for letting this go. It will be used and well cared for. My pans don't all go on a wall, most get used.
