I used to be intimidated by cast iron pans.... I used non-stick for the most part then noticed that none of those pans last very long even if properly cared for. I was pretty diligent to use only plastic on them but inevitably they always got scratched somewhere down the line. It was also not recommended to put them at high temps and if I had a recipe that required both the stove-top and the oven I'd have to change out my pan- very annoying. Buy these and you'll never have to repurchase one again- even if it gets rust! I honestly use at least one of these items a day, for the most part. Very reliable and doesn't get rusty if you look up how to take care of it. I only use a paper towel to clean after use for the most part. For stubborn bits that stick and for fragrant dishes such as fish, stir-fries, etc.- I scrub out the pan using a nylon brush using hot water- NEVER soap! I then dry it, put the pan on the stove to make sure any excess water is removed and then re-season with oil before putting it away. The pan gets exceptionally hot so for the germiphobes out there that insist that soap is the only way to sufficiently clean pots and pans- cookware becomes sterile at 212ºF. Cast iron cookware reaches around 400ºF in 4 minutes on medium heat- more than sufficient. This process only takes a few minutes, often less time than scrubbing out nonstick or stainless cookware. You can also use coarse kosher salt and oil to get stuck on food removed from the pan with a paper towel. It really isn't as high maintenance as you'd think so don't be scared! To prevent food (i.e. eggs) from sticking in the first place- make sure to preheat your skillet for a few minutes to get it scorching hot, add a little bit of butter or oil, and then crack open your eggs. The only times I've had them stick is when I've been too impatient and skipped this step. The lid that comes from the pan fits on the dutch oven, skillet, and griddle and definitely comes in handy. I thought I would rarely use the griddle- but it turns out to be my most used pan in the kitchen and hardly ever gets put away. Easier to flip in this which is perfect for eggs, pancakes, grilled cheese, etc (I always put the lid on-top of the griddle to fully melt the cheese when making grilled cheese, yum!) I use these babies to make a wide array of foods such as baked goods, pizza, fajitas, fish, frittatas, and mostly everything. This set really changed how I cook and I am better for it!

These cast iron pots and skillets are great! They do the cooking to near perfection. My advice is to take care of them as described being specific with the instructions provided. I kept these pans out and available with each one nesting with the provided paper that was with the product so they all fit together well. These are not suitable for acidic dishes nor leaving the lid on for too long after cooling thus creating condensation thereby potentially rusting the underside of the lid or even the exposed pot. It doesn’t matter while cooking or heating just afterwards. They are heavy as expected, safe using your favorite potholder, as well as are very versatile for so many dishes. Yesterday I braised, marinated and cooked short ribs, potatoes and carrots in another pan and cornbread in another size to create my own feast. Be creative and know you’ll get some iron added to your diet.

Very heavy in weight, but nice in size. The handle of the pans gets hot, due to the handle and entire pot being cast iron. Be sure you always use a pot holder before you touch the handle, so you don’t get burnt. It’s easy to clean. I did have to buy cast iron soap, scrub, and oil to keep the cast iron pans seasoned. I did not know at the time that it needed to be regularly seasoned. It’s very well made. Love it so far!

I have been looking to add to my cast iron collection for a while & finally did when I saw this set on sale. I wanted to wait a while to write a review until I used them enough to give a fair review. I have more good to say than bad, but there has been a downside. Let me start by saying all the cast iron I already had was handing down from my great grandmother, grandmother, mother & rescued from garage sales & needed TLC. So my expectations about newer cast iron was a bit lower than the older cast iron. I read reviews on Lodge (mostly positive) & also did some research. When I saw this set on sale I bought it. It arrived nicely packaged, no chips ( I saw a couple of reviews saying there were chips) & already seasoned. I washed the pieces & seasoned them. I don't really see any difference in the cooking which is good. The quality & sizes are good. I'm a huge fan of the griddle. However, I do have an ongoing issue with the lid to the Dutch Oven. First, the underside spikes are a bit sharp & it's a challenge to clean in between them. The 1st time I used the Dutch oven it was for a roast that I cooked for about 6 hours. I didn't notice until the roast was done the underside of the lid was completely rusty. Really disappointing & rusty enough that I wasn't comfortable feeding the roast. I cleaned it really well and seasoned it but it happened when I experimented with water the second time as well. It was not nearly as bad as the first use but still not good. I have my grandmothers Dutch Oven so I just use that when I'm doing a long cook needing a lid. I use the Lodge Dutch Oven without the lid for baking. Overall, I have had no other rusting issues with any of the other pieces & would most likely purchase Lodge cast iron in the future.

I LOVE these!! Wife bought them after throwing our nonstick pans. They cook soooo nice on the stove. Wish I had a gas stove, and these would be 💯. Quit using non stick, it's not good for you. Buy these.

I have to say that this purchase turned out to be a really good one. I'd wanted a cast iron set for camping for years, but had always been put off by the price and care required to maintain cast iron. I eventually got over the latter, and with the price of this kit, who can say no? I've used this set for about a year now...we do a lot of camping and cooking every year, whether it's setting up a tent in the national forests or using forest service cabins all winter long in the relatively harsh Montana winters. This kit (or parts of it) have gone with on all those trips and has been good to us and our food every step of the way. We've done cobblers, chili, traditional American breakfasts, enchiladas...dozens and dozens of ethnic and traditional foods and enjoyed using this cast iron kit every time. Whether setting it up in on a campfire, using a cook stove or even wood fired cooking stoves, it's been a reliable companion to have along the way. About the only complaint so far is that they're heavy...duh...it's cast iron! I expect these to last for years and years to come, maybe even a lifetime...who knows? Overall, this kit is a much better value overall than the piece meal approach...but you do need to consider whether the contained items will work well for your purposes. We did accessorize our units with some of the other Lodge products. This certainly isn't a necessity, but some are nice to have. In particular, the silicone handles and lid lifter have been essential additional tools we added to the kit. Other than those, this kit's been pretty much complete and hasn't required any further augmentation. We did re-season the units after it was received and just again recently for the new season. This is definitely a benefit overall and we would recommend learning about the procedure as it's a necessary component to maintaining cast iron for the long term. If you're looking for a relatively inexpensive cast iron kit, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this kit in particular.

Muito bom, a qualidade que é referencia de marca

EDIT: 09/16/16 - I have had this set for about 4 or 5 years now. Still mind blowingly amazing. Never going back to Teflon again!! I have fallen in love with cast iron set over the last year. I have owned this set for about 9 months now and I have nothing but amazing things to say about it. I even have friends who want to convert solely to cast iron for their cooking needs. I have used every piece of this set many times and like how I can use metal utensils on it and it's a breeze to season. Although I did do a very botched seasoning on all this whole set (the oil was too thick and I never wiped it because it was hot, and now it is uneven (visually, although it hasn't changed how well the set works) Some advice: -I warm the cast iron before I cook in it, rather in the oven if it's a baked item, or heat it on the stove when I prepare the dish - I always use when the cast iron is pipping hot - I have heard this helps with items not sticking. -WIPE AFTER SEASONING - don't do what I did. although they work great, visually they don't look as beautiful as the pre seasoned pan -take out leftover immediately, don't store anything inside - it'll make the iron rust. I learned that the hard way. -These are easy to clean, I bought a stiff brush and run some hot water inside for an easy clean, I don't use any soap. Well I'm'm not really a reviewer but though I'd'd review a product that I LOVE hopefully it'll help someone out to make this great purchase!

Después de mucho documentarme sobre estos sartenes puedo decir que son una excelente opción para cocinar. Requieren, como todo, su debido cuidado para evitar el óxido pero una vez que comienzas a usarlos y a adaptarte, se vuelve rutina. Considero que no es tan difícil ese cuidado, mientras sea constante. Así mismo, recalcar que el mango se pone muy caliente y es necesario usar un guante con recubrimiento de silicon o ponerle mangos de silicón, NADA de tela porque puede derretirse.

I bought this set a couple of weeks ago and I am throwing it in the garbage can. The whole thing is rusty and the black paint is coming off . The food I was trying to cook was stained from the paint. I’m afraid for my health.

ماشاءالله جودة ممتازة جدا ؛ ولكن فاجأني الوزن ؛ ثقيلة جدا ولكن روعة الطقم من كل النواحي ويستحق الشراء
