Customer Reviews of Lodge Logic 12-Inch Iron Cover
Customer Rating: Summary: Lid is more expensive then the frying pan Comment: First of all let me say that I only use cast iron and stainless steel cookware. I don't use aluminum (brain damage) or non-stick (carcinogenic) cookware ever. Cast iron cookware takes years to season because it has to smooth out from use and the deposit of microscopic carbon molecules. Because of that pre-seasoning is kind of useless. I think every cook should have 3 pieces of cast iron: A grill pan, a dutch oven and a frying pan. If you can't cook it in one of those, it probably can't be cooked. As far as the lid goes; it fits tightly on the Lodge Logic 12" frying pan. I wouldn't say it's an essential item (especially if you have a dutch oven) but it's nice to have. I think the price is too high considering that the frying pan (with more metal) is about 1/3 less expensive. This lid was $10 in 2007. Customer Rating: Summary: Get your cover and a Dutch Oven on the cheap Comment: I looked at it like this: The 7 Qt. Dutch Oven cover fits the 12" skillet. The 12" cover is $20.01 The 7 Qt. Dutch Oven w/Spiral Handle is $38.98 If I subtract what I'd spend for the 12" cover the D.O. only costs $18.97 more. That's a huge hunk of iron for a mere $18.97. I did the same thing by buying the 5 Qt. D.O. because the cover fits my 10 1/4" skillet. Also, I found a brush that works very well to clean the pans and lids Power Tip Dish & Glass Brush Customer Rating: Summary: Packing Comment: Worst packing I've ever seen from Amazon!!! It's amazing the Lodge cast iron lids (10 and 12 inch) survived unbroken. I did have to "re-season" the lids to cover the scratches from all the banging around they did in shipping!! I was lucky... If you need lids, I would find another source to eliminate the potential headache of returning due to damage. Thanks Amazon. I've read other reviews concerning shipping on this product and thought it must be a fluke or just another pinhead review... not so! Customer Rating: Summary: It's a good deal Comment: The Logic 12-inch pan seems to be a good deal to me because it is healthier to use than the no-stick pans. I grew up with my parents using that kind of pan, and so I was used to seeing it in use. I thought I was progressive using the modern cookware, but now that I've gone back to iron pans, I feel that I'm now doing something even more progressive. It cooks hotter than my other pans, but I like the honest crispiness it gives to food. I'm looking forward to using it in the future, and am sure it will last my lifetime since I'm now 66. I recommend it! Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect fit for the Lodge 12" Skillet Comment: Well, it's very sturdy and well made. The only kvetch, and it really is minor, is the huge logo on the cover. Did they have to? Otherwise, very pleased. More Reviews 12" Diameter, Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet Cover. Choosing Appliance -> Stainless steel bowls These are the best all purpose bowls for a multitude of applications. Choose a wide range of sizes (be sure to get a large bowl for whipping egg whites and whipped cream). In general, the heavier the bowl, the higher quality. Choosing Appliance -> Built-in Ovens Keen cooks may want to take advantage of multi-function ovens - usually aimed at the top end of the market. As well as traditional cooking, fan or fan-assisted cooking and grilling, these ovens offer up to nine further functions. These include: Top element only (browning), bottom element (final cooking of pastry dishes or pizzas), fan and bottom element (delicate cooking), fan only (thawing). Lodge Logic 12-Inch Iron Cover Tips How to Maintain Appliance -> Cleaning & Maintenance Oven Never use a scouring pad of any sort to remove stubborn stains or soiled areas, since these pads scratch the finish and any future soiled areas won't clean up as well, especially with the self-cleaning models. When the oven is cool to the touch, place a cloth or sponge, dampened with warm to hot tap water, onto the soiled area and allow it to sit, for about ten minutes or so, to help loosen the soil. |
