Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The weight of this pan is not too heavy so as to be cumbersome. While the weight is a testament to its durability, it's something to be mindful of.

The lodge crs12 carbon steel skillet combines the best of both cast iron and non-stick cookware. From searing and sautéing to frying and baking, this skillet's ample surface area provides enough room to prepare meals for both small and large gathering...  Read More



Cons

Not even worth using. But the warp makes it pretty much worthless. I won't be fooled again in to thinking carbon steel is suitable for anything but open flame. After five shipping delays, this thing is a monumental letdown.

There is a gap large enough for about 2 quarters, 1 pictured, between the level and the pan. My homemade flour tortillas all burn in the center and don't cook on the edges.

It's very rough and should be sanded and re-seasoned. All oil immediately flows to the perimeter. No way this will ever even remotely be non-stick without significant resurfacing.

Price

Packaging/appearance

Competitiveness


These both perform wonderfully and i have other carbon steel pans that cost 2x-3x more than these, but i prefer the lodges.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I see a lot of returns for this carbon steel pan i’m almost sure people are not seasoning the pan correctly do not use to much dish soap i just run hot water on it and wipe with a sponge everything comes right off after each use season with olive oil until it smokes wipe off excess oil that’s it done lodge pans are very good quality

    I would say the factory seasoning is mainly for rust protection and is great for that

    Did a test cook of bacon then eggs still did not keep the eggs from sticking
