Seasoned, ready to use. This 12 inch skillet is a kitchen's most essential item. The even heating of cast iron is necessary for golden, tender, perfectly pan-fried chicken. What other cookware can rival the heat retention, versatility, value and durability of cast iron.
Pancakes, eggs, and bacon somehow taste extra hearty when cooked in a heavy cast-iron skillet. Cast iron creates superior heat retention, heats evenly, and loves a campfire, unlike flimsier pans. Fry up a mess of catfish, roast a chicken, or bake an apple crisp in this generous 12-inch pan that features two handles for heavy lifting, and two subtle side lips for pouring. While the skillet comes preseasoned to prevent food from sticking, it works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. Whether used in a kitchen or camp, this virtually indestructible pan should last for generations.--Ann Bieri

I love this skillet!!:
I bought one of these for my dad as a gift a while ago. After hearing him talk about how much he loved cooking with it, I decided to buy one for myself. I do NOT regret it one bit. It cooks everything so nice and evenly. It does takes some getting used to if you are used to cooking with lighter aluminum skillets. I plan on buying several more cast iron pieces. For the price (and quality), you can't beat it.
complete unadulterated awesomeness:
The title pretty much says it all. Buy one now, you won't regret it. It's probably a good idea to season it yourself before you use it and re-season if it ever feels sticky.
Good Solid Cast Iron Pan:
I've been using this skillet for a few months now and it works great. I keep mine pushed to the back of my stovetop. The clean up is easy and I use it for everything. The only downside might be the weight of the cast iron, that is why I keep mine ready to use at all times.
Great price for a great skillet!:
I picked this skillet up as a gift for my fiance and we both just love it! The weekend I gave it to him we were off camping and took it with us... we cooked everything that weekend in it. We use this skillet now more than any other pan in the house. We both love this cast iron skillet.
