Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lodge Logic L14SK3 Pre-Seasoned 15 Inch Cast-Iron Skillet
Customer Review: You must try it to believe it.
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my heavy-duty non-stick aluminum pans started flaking off, and I needed replacement. Being lazy, I decided to try something bigger than the regular 12 inches across, so I could cook enough to store it in the fridge and be free from cooking for couple of days. I was a little apprehensive, as I never used cast iron before. Believe me or not, the thing is NON STICK to about the same degree as the non-stick pans. Being much heavier, it does not have cold/hot spots. Cooks on lower heat, too. Surprisingly easy to clean. Now that I know, I will look for something cast iron to do my roasts... preferably another pre-seasoned Lodge Logic. Oh, last but certainly not least: it is still quality made in the good old USofA.Customer Review: Great pan
Summary: 5 Stars
I am well pleased with the performance of this pan. It is LARGE, and takes a while to properly warm up. Because of its size, it seems to hold heat well - great for searing, which is why I bought it. The only down side to this pan is the weight, due to its extreme size. While I can muscle it from the stovetop to the oven and back without problems, my wife has a lot of difficulty moving it, especially when hot and full of contents. Lodge would do well to find a lid cover to fit this pan - one made from aluminum - since covering is an important part of cooking many dishes. It is not easy to find a cover to fit it. Overall, I am well satisfied with the pan performance.Customer Review: I'm now hooked on cast iron skillets

I don't have a lot to add to the other reviews, except I now love cooking with cast iron. This skillet is fantastic for everything, including grilled cheese sandwiches, tortillas, quesadillas, blackberry cobbler (seriously!), and many other things. When you sautee mushrooms and onions (toss a little red wine in there) for your hamburger, they get this richness to them that no other pan can achieve. They blacken things so effectively, but without burning or charring them like a Teflon pan does. You can also make skillet cornbread in them, and it is incredible...so crispy and nice. I'm rambling, but that is how I get when I really like something.Customer Review: Great all purpose cast iron skillet
Summary: 4 Stars
While this baby is very heavy, the size is perfect for many kitchen tasks. Great for frying but doesn't have a pouring dimple as pictured. Handle is rather short but better as it fits in our oven as well. Wonderful for doing steaks on your stove top. As it's pre-seasoned, you can immediately begin to enjoy it and cleanup is simple but you need to follow the directions. I never realized you should not use soap products on cast iron cookware. This is our first kitchen experience using a cast iron skillet (sure wish I saved some of my Mom's) and we can't figure out how we cooked without it. A must have for anyone who enjoys cooking.Customer Review: I love this pan.

I love this pan. I was frying my steak for Philly steak sandwiches and was destroying the non-stick pan when I would chop the steak in the pan. Not so with this cast iron beauty, you can cut, chop and dice anything in this pan and you can't hurt it. And because it's pre seasoned the food doesn't stick. I fry bolonga without oil and it doesn't stick.
Just a post script, the old lady would let me have it with the frying pan when I would sneak in late at night. Well this cast iron beauty is so heavy, she can't even pick it up, haha. Well I have to go, sweety is just returning from the gym. I wonder what she's going there for...
