Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron 8-Inch Skillet

There was a small chip on the edge. I could peel it off. About half-inch seasoning and coating came off. It's not like I'm buying this stuff from TJ Maxx or Marshall. I expected the full quality from Amazon store. But I received a defected one.

Great product, perfect size for only 2 people in camper or tent. Light enough to carrying in camping gear. Cheaper again at WM or Target.

This is one of 5 Lodge cast iron skillets and 4 Lodge Dutch Ovens and camp Dutch Ovens that I own; obviously, I'm a big fan of cast iron, and Lodge specifically. I bought it for when I want to whip up some eggs or another single-serve meal for myself. As with my 8 other products, I've not been disappointed. Just remember to take care of it (no soap, no leaving it wet in the sink, make sure to oil it when dry) and it will take care of you. I can't imagine not having this small skillet in my pantry.

Received this skillet and discovered it had scratches in the bottom of it which marred the pre-seasoning. It also had a large scrape on the side inside which was rusted so there was no preseasoning on it. The handle is so short that it is always overheating.

I own 2 other Farberware larger pre-seasoned cast iron skillets and they arrived in perfect condition. They also have longer handles which are more ergonomically designed so they are easier to use and never overheat.

I love cast iron since it is so durable but it would have been too expensive to ship the Lodge skillet back for a replacement so I kept it the way it was. I will have to do the seasoning myself on it.

I personally think that Farberware makes a better, more user friendly product and would recommend their cast iron products over Lodge.

I love my two new cast iron skillets. I do not know why I have put up with cheap, easily scratched and damaged teflon pans for so long. These pans are solid and well made. They are alrady seasoned when you purchase, and you just need to follow the directions and clean after use, and treat by rubbing in a bit of oil while pan is still warm. That way these pans are as "stick-proof" as teflon, so they are easily cleaned. Make sure the pan is hot before you add food! It's almost impossible to find cast iron skillets at department stores etc. [...].
