Lodge Logic 10-Inch Chef's Skillet

I've been cooking with this for about 2 months now, and you simply can't use it the same way as you would a teflon pan.

The pros are: its healthier to use, it lasts longer, and if you cook correctly on it, its just as easy to clean as teflon.

The cons are: you will have to cook on a higher heat. for example, if you cook scrambled eggs on a low heat they will fuse to the bottom of the pan. if you cook on a high heat, they dance on it and come right off. So, you have to learn how to cook differently.

So far, I've cooked eggs, french toast, pancakes, reheated pizza, reheated steak, diced potatoes... the list goes on.

As for cleaning, I have to put about as much effort as I did into my teflon pan, but, its a different kind of effort and I don't like cleaning it as much.

If you want to consider this as an alternative to the teflon you are used to, I would highly recommend that you be PATIENT and WILLING TO LEARN. Otherwise, you will get frustrated with it.

Overall, for what it is, its a great pan at a great price. Of course, i'm a member of Amazon prime, so that made it fast, cheap, and quality, which is really hard to get in one package.

Recently my wife got rid of all the non-stick/Teflon dishes due to health concerns. We got this pan especially for cooking eggs etc. Although a little heavy, it is a excellent product and we are very happy with this.

I did not give it 5 stars since I believe the handle could be a couple of inches longer and have something like a wooden "cover" to avoid overheating and make it convenient to manage.

Overall, I have no hesitation in recommending this......you will not regret the buy!

This is the most incredible skillet I have EVER used! I use it every single day to cook for my large family.
Can't believe I 'fell' for the teflon-type or anodized skillets; I was purchasing a new one every 2 or 3 years as they do not stand up to daily use. The one improvement we made to both our 15-1/4 and 10-1/4 inch Cast-iron Skillets was to subject them to some serious sanding with our orbital sander. We started with 80 grit and worked up to 220 grit - took more than an hour, but boy was it worth it! The pan finish is now like glass and is 100% stick free!

I just received it this morning. It looks really black and shiny so beautiful! After washing it with hot water only, patting it dry thoroughly, oiling it all over with vegetable oil I gave it a first try by frying an egg. It works better than my Teflon skillet!! Nothing stick on it!!! Excellent skillet!!

to go with my original finish Lodge cookware, but this one didn't take any effort to season. Good going, Lodge!
