Seems good so far. It had one blemish where it never formed quite right that went right through from top to bottom of skillet. Bigger name companies probably would have culled these out or sold them off as seconds. I don't think it will affect long term use will just require more seasoning and maybe a bit of a hot or cold spot relative to the rest of the pan, time will tell. One note, just to clarify "with handle and Silicone cover" means that it has a silicone handle cover.
