As soon as I saw "Designed in Australia" I figured it was made in China.

Some folks say the smooth polish is a good thing, and that it makes it more non-stick.

But, my old lodge frypans are bumpy and ancient. They never had sticking issues, even after I screw up, destroy the seasoning, and have to re-season it.

Is there any reason to go with something smoother?
I've smoothed out a number of Lodges now and it does indeed make a significant difference. (Flap disk with an angle grinder is the best method I've found). Once it's seasoned, it becomes much easier to clean if needed, but almost all of the time now "cleaning" is simply wiping it down with a paper towel and a little olive oil.

At this point I'll probably never have to smooth down a Lodge again, but if for some reason I needed a new cast iron, I'd definitely: a) buy a Lodge and b) smooth it out and re-season it myself.

Does milling remove that much weight. Your losing 3.5 lbs (almost a milled pan weight) choosing milled pad which assume would translate to less heat retention.

12" Unmilled - 7.5lbs
12 milled - 3.94 lbs
I think that has to be a typo. Milling should only remove a little material off the surface.

Is that for the milled version only? They have two different types with one being unmilled.
Great point. I stand corrected. Still going to pass. Maybe I'll find what I'm looking for at a yard sale some day.

If you need to seer meat at a high temp and don't own a cast iron pan, you can use Calphalon brand pan as a substitute.

Calphalon makes a whole range of products. To simply say "all you need is this brand" is reductive and not accurate. Not all Calphalon would work, and loads of non-Calphalon would work.

Chinese pan. Wonder how many people will fall for the "Australian" marketing ploys.

I think I'm going to buy some Chinese pans off Temu, change the name to "Kangaroo Pans", and sell on Amazon. I'll make millions!

Pictures in reviews put me off. Looks like the surface texture has varied throughout the time they've been making these. I've got enough vintage stuff but would like a decent 12" skillet with a helper handle for certain things.

Edit: Someone pointed out that the pictures are probably all mixed together for the milled and unmilled versions.
If you have vintage ones already, why don't you buy a vintage 12" with a helper handle? I would never buy one off of eBay as those people ask the moon for their vintage Cook ware but it's not too difficult to find in person sellers who ask a reasonable price.

Great point. Copper works great too, albeit its expensive. I have a Mauviel copper pan and it's mega heavy and works great. One of my kids will love it after I pass it on and I'm sure one of their kids will love it.

Lodge stopped offering smooth cast iron in 1998 because it barely sold. They said it was less than 2% of their sales. Lodge can produce either. It's pretty well established that texture holds onto seasoning better. And it does not affect non-stickiness at all. There are videos comparing this. It will eventually smooth out anyway.

If you do sand/smooth it out do not polish it to a glass finish. It'll have trouble holding onto seasoning. But if you're going to smooth it out I'd rather get a thick carbon steel pan anyway. I was all into cast iron. Even picked up a Griswold. I've since converted to carbon steel with no real world downsides and all upside. More expensive upfront but so much more carefree with seasoning etc. My cast iron pieces are now backups.

You need to be pretty strong to use a 7.5 lb pan...

To be honest, I don't see many vintage pre-60s skillets with helper handles in my area. I'm not a expert on timelines but appears the helper handles where added later in the 20th century. I'll probably end up buying a 12" Lodge new at some point. Don't want to put the effort into refurbing a 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s skillet. It's worth it to me to refurb a 60 to 100 year old skillet but not some rusted, crusty 80s Lodge.

Agree about the ebay stuff being overpriced. I've paid so little for my vintage stuff that I kind of feel bad sometimes. I've gotten Favorite Piquas ($3!), Griswolds, Wagner, all for less than $20. But I have to clean them up myself because they are in bad shape.
