You won't be disappointed - I have several pieces from the Copper Core line, and this fry pan is truly one of my most-used and most beloved pieces. You have already read its countless merits (even-heating, beautiful browning, etc.), so I won't repeat. But to new users, the key to making the most of this cookware is to turn your heat down a notch - especially if you are used to cooking with hard-annodized/nonstick. Also, when browning meat or vegetables, allow the food to sit in the pan without immediately stirring or flipping. As the foods natural moisture and oils are released, the food will brown carmelize and release itself. Deglazing in this cookware is a dream. With good tools and ingredients, cooking can be amazing pleasure and adventure in creativity rather than a chore. This is cookware that will re-inspire your time in the kitchen.
