Amazon Basics Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet, Heavy-Duty Oven Safe up to 260 C, Large 15-inch (38.1 cm), Black

superb cast iron frying pan , very large and fairly heavy , using it on a 5 ring propane burner , cast iron is finished fairly smooth , unlike others , will get decades of use , if oiled regularly , absolute bargain , very happy, thank you , amazon..

A great frying pan but I think I under estimated the size of this , its massive it takes up half the cooker top . Its probably going to last forever , besides the problem of ever carrying this to the bin at any point as it weighs a ton . I think with the recommended care this pan should last a lifetime honestly .

The pan was nicely seasoned but unfortunately I didn't look at the measurements when I purchased it. The pan was massive, and definitely too big to fit in my pan cupboard or to use on the cooker. If Amazon sell a cast iron skillet in a smaller size, I'd buy it because the pan was good quality.

This thing is a beast. My kids can hardly lift it, it doesn't fit in my sink. But I can cook smash burgers in it, 4 of them easily at a time. I can brown off 750g of mince in it, using my gas hob's wok burner. Get the pan hot, throw the huge lump of meat in and it just browns off while I do other things. Its cast iron, so when new, I cleaned it with soap. Threw it on the hob and let it get hot. Rubbed some oil in it with tissue. Let it cool. Repeated a couple of times. Then I just scrub it with hot water and wire wool when it gets dirty, no soap ever and it just works. Maybe let some water soak in the pan before cleaning. I cannot stress how lazy I am, and the days of spending ages scrubbing burnt on crap from stainless steel or destroying yet another teflon pan are over. My wife the other day did scrambled eggs in the pan, threw it in with the pan hot and no oil. I cried, but the pan just did its thing, and no egg was stuck. I could season it properly, I could take better care but I have abused this pan for over 6 months now and it is awesome. I do re oil it once in a while if the pan looks a bit grey or rusty red rather than dark black, but I can do that just by cooking some thing oily in it. The main thing that concerns me is deglazing it, throwing hot water into the pan to clean it of chorizo oily bits that all goes into a naughty chicken and chorizo pealla, after that the non stickyness seems to be worn away somewhat. I have abused a cheapo cast iron pan for many years, it was just too small. I am now abusing this pan in my neglectful manner, and I will never go back to non stick pans again.

Large heavy great material can last for decades

I don’t use this frequently, but it is prone to rust. Had to scrub and scrape multiple times. Not sure why this happens. I’m told it’s not normal.

Very happy with skillet pan, great quality and much larger than I expected, very solid and heavy. Should last a lifetime with care. Should have ordered the medium size though ,as the large one won't fit in my oven and is very heavy, but still glad I purchased. Heats up really fast and evenly.Great price and very well packaged. Highly recommend.

This is the first cast iron pan I've bought and I'm glad I did. It does take a bit of work to season it when you get it as it's definitely not pre seasoned and everything will stick to it at first. However after a few seasonings and use it quickly became nearly completely non stick. There's a bit of work involved in cleaning it but if you don't mind that this pan should last forever. It also doubles up as a serving dish which I like the rustic look of when presenting food.

Es un sartén excelente. Se me envió un pequeño manual con instrucciones de cuidado y uso me parece que esto habla de interés por la calidad. Ya hice mi primera pizza y quedó extraordinaria.

Frigideira basica chegou bem temperada, tem o seu bom peso mas confecciona comida boa sabendo utilizar a mesma. Tendo todos os cuidados a tempera la e lavar correctamente aguenta muito tempo. Melhora a cada dia que passa com mais utilizaçao. Recomendo devido ao preço e a qualidade da mesma.

Ottima padella di ghisa! La mia prima padella di ghisa. Lavorando in un ristorante ho optato per la dimensione maggiore. Che dire, fantastica, arrivata già trattata. Ovviamente ci vuole passione e soprattutto pazienza per la pulizia senza spugne abrasive e agenti chimici. Ne vale comunque la pena.

Before I begin my review, I would like to state that iron skillets (be it any brand) are not something that is easy to handle and clean. To start with, they are very heavy. You will observe that they are not non stick and the handles get heated while slow cooking. Besides, such skillets need to be maintained well (should not be washed with soap after every use) and periodically seasoned for long life. So I would give an adverse review just because of these points. Pros: The cast iron skillet is well seasoned and polished. The finishing is really good and the skillet in itself lookes sturdy and good value for money. The skillet dissapates heat well and perfect for slow cooking. The thickness of the skillet was uniform and had looked Like a product that you would pass on to the next generation. This skillet is way better than the Rock brand skillet (I bought one and had to return as I did not like the quality). Cons: As written earlier, the handle of the skillet gets hot and one needs to use a cloth or a silicon handle (sold seperately by Amazon). This is something that Amazon provide with the skillet. Or, a wooden handle could do wonders. Secondly, I felt that the skillet was so big that I did not have a lid suitable for it. This is a big downside. I did not see Amazon selling this seperately either. Something that I would love to have. Overall, i feel that this product is highly recommended.

Excellent quality. Delivers everything that is promised. Great product. Must buy if u r looking for a sturdy pan. Highly recommended.
