Pre seasoning is a plus.Created perfect grill marks on foodPerfect size for preparing 2-4 servings

Great choice for either stovetop, oven/broiler or grill. If using on a grill it keeps delicate items from falling through. I love the double handle design since it’s heavy. Make sure you get their grill scraper as well for cleaning.

We didn't "need" one but I really wanted one. And this particular one because it has the grill ridges. Bonus handle piece too ::thumbs up:: When I can't make it to the grill this is my go-to pan now. Grill marks and not having items directly over the heated surface is the way it needs to be done. I say not over direct heat because it has the ridges as compared to a flat cast iron skillet. Burgers in each are awesome I just prefer the grill over the flat.I really do my research because I prefer to buy things that will last and won't have to be replaced which is why I chose this product. We already know the brand is well established and has been producing quality products since they began. I've come to find that their price range is definitely best quality for the dollar. I'm not a professional cook I'm a guy that has a wife and we both love to cook.I use this on the grill, over a fire, on the stovetop and finished in the oven. It's cast iron. Just don't microwave it lol.For people that are looking for cast iron products for the first time I highly suggest this product. And of course those of us that are a little more seasoned with cast iron products already know that cleaning and caring for these items is very important. There are the basic steps you need to do to keep your pan in the best condition. However, I've not used cast iron before and it showed signs of surface rust and after a little cleaning and seasoning it's right back to new.Cast iron seems to be a little daunting when learning how to maintain them but it's more than simple once you have done it once or twice. So I highly suggest this product.

Product delivered on time and was exactly as presented on website. No complaints, exactly what I required.

Love the product - knocked off one star because seasoning doesn't stay on raised grills. Steaks and chops get stuck!

I use this on my grill. Put it on and close the lid to let it get hot. Works great on food that you want to sear or char. When I get done I also oil the outside of it after I clean it so it doesn’t get rusty on me. Use a plastic scraper to clean it you can find them on amazon. Lodge makes the scrapers also.

We're now living in a no-grilling condo and miss our charcoal and gas grill cookouts. We took a chance on this cast iron pan but didn't have the highest of hopes. Pan fried steak isn't something we ever did.The pan is well made with no apparent defects, edges etc. Our first use was modest. I picked up some good quality ground beef at the butcher and made burgers. We were pleased beyond expectations. The pan seared good grill marks into the meat and created an excellent hot grilled taste. A+ for the first try.Second attempt was some choice sirloin steaks. These aren't as forgiving as burgers but again things turned out great. Another A+. We'll probably try boneless chicken breasts next followed by more beef, likely rib eye or tenderloin.Cleaning was as expected. It took a little work but not bad. We bought the Lodge silicon grill cleaners and they helped.If you're limited to cooking indoors, this is a great product and highly recommended. We cook on an electric glass top stove which wasn't a problem. Once the pan got to temperature, it was easy to keep it hot and do its work.

The pan arrived on time. The handle cover was not included. Amazon told me to contact Lodge. Lodge told me they do not sell through Amazon and the sale was through a third party. Eventually I got someone from Amazon on the phone. They offered a $6 rebate...Disappointing customer service..
