Community Reviews
The 8-inch Lodge skillet is a compact cast iron pan that works well for everyday cooking, especially small jobs like breakfast tacos. It is widely described as a solid value at this price, and the cooking surface can improve with seasoning and regular use. The pan does arrive rough and heavy, so the first impression may be less refined than vintage cast iron. The silicone handle accessory is also a weak point because it can slip during cooking. It is a practical little skillet if you are willing to season it and live with cast iron weight.
Common Questions (4)
The factory surface can feel very rough because of the casting sand, so it is worth feeling one in-store if possible. With regular use and seasoning over a year or two, it can smooth out and become more nonstick.
Yes. The 8-inch Lodge skillet is described as high quality cast iron and $14.39 is a good price for it. It is also positioned as a very reasonable buy for everyday use.
Season it in the oven at 500°F a few times before cooking, then keep using and seasoning it normally. Care and maintenance are described as not bad aside from the weight, and a silicone handle or oven mitts can help with handling.
No. The silicone handle is reported to slip off even when dry and can become oily during cooking, so oven mitts are the safer option.

They are actually running out of the sand for very smooth cast iron skillets.

Con is that the burned in non-stick season doesn't last long.
Edit: Today it's there; wasn't yesterday.
I tried putting 3 of these in my cart, which gets it over $35. But was still being charged shipping.
Not sure if Amazon is updating code for their website or what; I was surprised.
