Lodge Logic Skillet Description: Product Description
Made by the cast iron experts at Lodge, this revolutionary pan is preseasoned, so it's ready to cook right out of the box. It's perfect for making virtually anything from bacon and eggs to grilled sandwiches, pan-fried fish, and fabulous cornbread. Each has dual pour spouts and a helper handle.
Lodge Logic's new preseasoning process penetrates the metal's pores thoroughly and uniformly, so it looks and performs better than traditional home seasoning. You still get the even heating, superior heat retention, and inherently stick-resistant finish that has made cast iron cookware a favorite of professional chefs. Oven safe. Made in the USA.

Comment: cast iron skillets are amazing and the one i got from the shipper was no exception. There was nothing amiss with my order (kind of hard to mess up a solid iron pan), and I'd totally buy from them again!

Comment: I actually bought mine at a local sporting-goods store because I didn't want to have to pay shipping on that much cast iron (you can get them at Wal-Mart, Academy Sports & Outdoors, and most camping stores in my area).
I read around first so I knew that "pre-seasoned" didn't really mean it could be used as-is, right out of the box (I also have my grandparents' small Wagner frying pan, which is glass-smooth, but only through 70 years of use. True seasoning doesn't come easily).
I seasoned it in the oven, the way I read about online, and have tried to maintain it, and so far it's worked great. I haven't had any problems with sticking as long as I'm careful to "lube" it properly before putting the food in. I'm looking forward to making cornbread in it and getting that crispy outside.
For the record, since I saw some people complained about it: Yes, the handle is that small. You've seen the picture. Mine is a 10.5 inch and it's heavy: I have carpal tunnel syndrome in my left hand and it's a bit difficult for me to lift and tilt in one hand, so if you have hand problems, be aware of this. You will need good hot-pads.
Summary: excellent skillet

Comment: This a nice cast iron skillet. It's a really good size. Perfect for making corn bread.
Can't beat the price.
Summary: The best pan I have ever owned!

Comment: I love this pan! Everything they say about it is true. It heats evenly, its easy to clean and maintain, and when seasoned and cared for properly it is better than any non stick pan you could buy. And the price can't be beat! I love this pan so much I keep it on my stove top all the time and use it daily. It is a bit heavy, so if you have week arms or wrists it may not be for you. So, if you're looking for a good but rather inexpensive pan. This is it. Just remember to use oven mitts with it, because it gets hot fast and that includes the handle.
Summary: Good size pan for everyday meals

Comment: I had a larger skillet - 14 in, I believe - and it's great, but it's SO heavy I can't maneuver it with one hand. So I bought this one, and it's perfect. My pan of choice for all my cooking.
