Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Le creuset cast iron frying pan is the best frying pan i have ever used. The second skillet is as good as advertised. Cook eggs as normal - plastic spoon as usual.

The special enamel coating is unlike any pan i have ever used. It is a unique enamel formulation that acquires a patina.



Cons

This is genuinely, the very worst pan i've ever owned or used. It's more like the lodge layer-nothing more. The oil on one side of the pan bubble while the other side barely shimmers.

The orange enamel appears insufficiently applied. Takes an extra 20 minutes chipping away at the pan and running water over it to get whatever it is you cooked off. Even after soaking for 24 hours it still will not come clean.

This item is now also no longer available from this seller at this time. Your lifetime warranty is a lie. Vendor says it's by le creuset but i highly doubt it.

It is so heavy to lift this cookware that you have to be careful not to develop carpal tunnel syndrome. The nonstick surface is definitely not nonstick. A seasoned cast iron skillet works much better with no concern about special handling.

That gift has cost me hundreds of dollars.

Packaging/appearance


The surface diameter (cooking area) is about 8–8½ inches in the 10¼-inch (26cm) skillet.

Competitiveness


My partner says it makes her feel like a chef.


All stovetops vary, but the point is that these skillets will get ripping hot—and hold that heat—without ever needing to crank ...  Read More
