My fried chicken got burnt a tiny bit, it was still edible. But for a skillet that has never been used before that is better than great. Next time I cook I should get the hang of things and prevent that from happening. My mother and mother-in-law both cook with skillets that have been well seasoned, and I'm very happy to achieve the same with mine.
This is the perfect pan whether you are a gormet cook or just want to brown some ground beef and serve manwiches or hamburger helper. Nothing sticks and it is amazing.
Instead of getting the farberware sets like my friends were getting for their weddings, I didn't register for cookware. I bought this paella pan, a 2.5-qt saucepan and the short and wide stockpot from Calphalon. I didn't wash them in the dishwasher and all have held up well. I'm back at Amazon today to get some more calphalon cleanser. Amazing how this product is a quality product and I fully expect it to last a lifetime.
We are a family of five and definitely give this pan an A+
This pan is great. I bought a smaller one and fell in love with it, that I had to buy alarge one. Nexti am going to add a lid. It is great that It comes pre-seasoned, basically it is ready to use. It reminds me of grandma's house, grandma's always have a cast iron pan.

I purchased this pan about four years ago, and last week had to send it back (for the second time) to get it replaced due to the teflon non-stick surface degrading and peeling. Customer service is excellent. The first pan was replaced quickly free of charge. I only had to pay for shipping back to them which ended up costing about half the cost of a new pan.
High heat is the cause of the teflon degrading. One must be very careful not to exposing the pan to the highest heat level on electric or gas oven and never leave unattended for long periods of time.
Having said that, I really love this pan and use it every day, usually twice a day. I use it to make perfect three egg omelets in the morning and sometimes fry up a turkey ... Read More:
I hated my mother's cast iron skillet, it was so big and heavy, but she had to feed a family of nine. Now I am getting reaquainted with cast iron, and wish I hadn't stayed away so long. The 8" is perfect for me, not so much heavy, as solid. Heats pretty quick, clean up and care is simple. I have left teflon on the burner before and am not surprized that the horrid smell is also toxic. I'd rather have the added iron in my diet instead of teflon or alluminum. It's easy to see why Lodge has stood the test of time, quality and affordability together are hard to find! Quick shipping too! Two forks up!

I purchased these pans to replace some aging Simply Calphalon pans that I'd used for years and liked. I thought I wanted 8" and 10" pans but have found that the 10" and 12" sizes are more versatile. This is a good deal for the price except there are no covers to contain the splatters. Fortunately I was able to get some covers that fit the pans so I am a happy camper. I use these pans daily with olive oil and canola oil and get great results. Just be sure to use nonstick utensils and don't use spray oils but then, you won't need much oil.

I needed a heavy, large pan with a lid and this one is perfect. Not only is it the right weight for even cooking, but it's non-stick and has a clear glass lid as well. It's a great value for the money, and just what I was looking for in a fry pan.

This is a great pre-seasoned cast iron pan. It is a little larger than I had invisioned and it is super heavy. I have had no problems with cleaning or caring for the pan itself. Amazon by the way had the best price, even better than the lodge website. If you are looking for a larger cast iron pan than this is the one you should get.

Bought this to accommodate family meals when everyone is here (8 of us)and I am not just cooking for 2. Well made and love the lid. I'd buy it again.
Great as a wok and all-in-one dinners.

Yes, it's small and cute! Perfect for a single person cooking one chicken breast, one fried egg, one garden burger,or one salmon patty. Why wait for a huge heavy skillet to warm up? I love the preseasoning, but consider it just a beginning, getting you to that excellent patina that much faster! I definately would recommend it.
