My 8" pans have 6" flat spots. making two medium eggs not perfectly round. Two jumbos might be just right. The smallest pan, Baccarat, is 6" with 4" bottom. You would have to flip very carefully
It is also heavy enough that it stays in contact with the stove top despite it's normal size handle. Think it was $5.99, never use it.
