Customer Reviews of Lodge Original Finish 15-1/4-Inch Skillet with Assist Handle
Customer Rating:  Summary: Will NEVER be better than THIS baby! Comment: My God I feel like such a MANLY man whenever I make this skillet hot! And it works like a dream! Now that it's well seasoned it's better that ANYTHING Teflon, glass, ceramic, stainless, ANYTHING! Very good design. Great even heat. Seasons well. Customer Rating:  Summary: Old fashion cooking Comment: The lodge is a very heavy skillet. It is almost 15" on the inside and requires a large burner for heating. Howver, it does cook very evenly. Clean up is simple, just make sure you have a large enough space for storage. Customer Rating: Summary: As wonderful as expected Comment: This pan lives up to the high quality I've come to expect from Lodge. Customer Rating: Summary: Cookware for life! Comment: I am absolutely sold on cast iron. I have 4 different size skillets plus covered casserole, fryer, dutch oven. I really enjoy using this giant one (pick your size for your crowd). I pre-heat it in a 350 degree oven for stove top cooking. I bake coffee cakes, corn bread and fritta's in it. It's roomy for grilling sandwiches. I have also broiled and "oven fried" meats in this skillet. I love to bake one pot meals (casseroles from cheese to rice)in the dutch ovens. Wet roasting is nice too but the pots do need to be re-reasoned after. I agree with two other reviews 1) clean up while still hot on the burner 2) no tomatoes! (acidic foods destroy the seasoned coating). Making gravy in these pans really cleans them up. I will never "need" to buy another set of cookware! Customer Rating: Summary: Deceptive Sizing Comment: In the twentieth century, and before, cast iron pans had the size stamped on them which told you the diameter of the cooking surface. Twenty-five years ago I bought the Lodge 10SK which is a 12" skillet with a 10" inside cooking diameter. OK. With this skillet marked 14SK the inside cooking surface is only 12" and it should be marked 12SK. They deceptively flared out the sides to get an overall top diameter of 15 1/4" as a selling point. This isn't very helpful to my pork chops being 36% less space than I thought I was buying. I'd watch out for the 10SK too. I guess to get a real #14 cast iron skillet, I need to get a Griswold. Hilditch PS: It weighs 10 lbs. More Reviews 15-1/4" Cast Iron Skillet. 
Choosing Appliance -> Dishwashers Check the capacity. 'Standard' 60cm wide dishwashers can take 12, 14 or 16 place settings, whilst slimline 45cm models may cater for 7, 8 or 9 place settings. Compact dishwashers tend to be 45 cm wide and can be placed on the worktop or built in, depending on the model. They may take 4, 5 or 6 place settings. Choosing Appliance -> Spatulas Buy a sturdy stainless spatula for general uses and a Teflon spatula for your non-stick pan. In addition, buy a silicon baking spatula for scraping bowls. Silicon is an amazing substance which is heat resistant up to 550 degrees. Lodge Original Finish 15-1/4-Inch Skillet with Assist Handle
