Looking for a dedicated non-teflon egg pan. Should I go with this or cast iron?

I have the 12" version of this pan and use it for 4 eggs over easy at least five days a week. However, there is a learning curve with this pan and you will need to spend some time properly seasoning it and maintaining that seasoning it. When I first started using it I cursed it every morning but forced myself to adjust to it as I was coming from a nice Teflon pan. That said, for the value cast iron will also be terrific and honestly is a little more forgiving ( just remember to keep the heat on both pans a lot lower than you are properly used to and let them preheat: I go about 2 min. On medium and then reduce to just a hair under medium low on my gas range for another 2 minutes before adding butter and then frying the eggs). The 12 inch version is a must if if you are cooking for more than one. I also use it for scrambled eggs and omelets for which it now does a good job after having been seasoned well beyond what comes from the factory.

why is this black vs DeBuyer's which is silver? both say carbon steel. thanks!

As a response to Jim who also answered this question: No, Lodge does NOT use Flaxseed oil. It says right there in the item description that they use soybean oil which is a decent choice of oil overall, but a much better choice than Flaxseed oil. I personally prefer refined 100% Avocado oil from Chosen Foods. It's mono/poly-unsaturated fat makeup makes for an oil that polymerizes wonderfully with the carbon steel. Grapeseed oil is BETTER than avocado oil in this respect, HOWEVER, refined 100% avocado oil has the highest smoke point of any cooking oil on the market at 520°F which means I can really get the most out of these pans which can handle incredibly high heats and do things like use them in a 500°F oven or directly under the broiler without the seasoning smoking and imparting a bad flavor in the food.

What are the true dimensions of the griddle? I see two sets of dimensions: 18 x10 and 21.2 x 10.2.

18 x 10 are the cooking surface dimensions. 21.2 x 10.2 are the exterior dimensions which include the handles.
