Great Quality Skillet!
I have tried a few cast iron pans and I always burned everything I ever cooked. I bought this pan because we have the high end regular Calphalon pots and pans and love them. After more research and trying to cook with this pan, I really love it. Its great! Just make sure you season it regularly for the first few times to make sure food won't stick/burn.

Works great!
After 40+ years of having coated pans which were too thin (Okay, I'm cheap) and suffering for another 6 months with those in which the coating wore off and I had to scrape all my food off the bottom (crunchy is tasty, right?) I was skeptical whether this one could really match coated pans. More than once I prematurely ruined those pans by setting pre-heat and then getting a phone call or otherwise distracted until I smelled chemical smoke. Oops, another $25 burned up.I did the conditioning 4 times in my oven, doing as they suggested, after baking it for 2 hours, turning off the oven and leaving it in there for at least 6 hours, or overnight.Well, I love fried eggs, and with just a thin coat of oil or Pam, it's as good as any coated pan. I can't express it well, but it's a better 'cook taste' for things like veggies. Yes, it does require a pre-heat, but then I have an electric glasstop cooktop, so I can't be accused of being a gourmet.For frying eggs, the handle will not be warm enough to require a hotpad to move it off the hot burner after the eggs are done. For things which require longer cooking, a hotpad on the handle is a good idea. If one gets a magnetic hook, one can hang a pad right on the stove, always handy. Between cooking, after it's cooled down, I wipe down with a paper towel. One can clean it by using a dollop of cooking oil as if it were soap, on a paper towel.

Lives up to the reputation of a cast iron skillet
I was always skeptical of what people said about cast iron skillets, but this one has proven it all to be true. It came pre-seasoned, but I seasoned it myself again. The first time I used it, it was really hard to clean, and I tired myself out with the steel scrubby. But after a few uses now, it's amazing! Even burnt-on, carbonized drippings from pork tenderloin or steak just slide right off. I used it to make perfect steaks the other day, and clean-up took almost no time at all. It's getting nicely seasoned, and I'm looking forward to using it for other foods soon.

Well designed cast iron skillet at a great price
I love the curved corners between the bottom and the sides. It says it’s lighter than other 12” skillets and it’s still hard for me to control with my left hand while emptying so any heavier than this would be a challenge. Like all reasonably priced cast iron the interior cooking surface is too rough for my taste for food to not stick more often than I’d prefer. Rather than buy a very pricey Field, Finex, or Stargazer (only available in 10.5” now), I decided to pay an extremely reasonable amount for this larger skillet and grind down the existing seasoning and rough iron interior with an Avanti pro disc and then sand it with 40, 80, 120, and 220 grit sandpaper to get a very smooth interior cooking surface. Then I seasoned four times with olive oil and four one hour stints in the oven upside down at 425 degrees. It cooks beautifully now and is a lovely smooth black.

Two freatures set this apart.
There usually isn't much differentiation pre-seasoned cast iron skillets but this piece is indeed different in two ways that make a difference to me. First, it seems to be a thinner cast iron, making it lighter. It's actually lighter than a "regular" smaller 10" cast iron skillet that I have (weighed them, the Calphalon is about a pound lighter!). Cast iron is never lightweight, to be sure, but this is somewhat easier to maneuver for cooking and cleaning than it would otherwise be. (The product description says 6.8 pounds; another 12" skillet shows at 8 pounds.) Second, the bottom and sides meet in a slope, a curve. Most cast iron skillets are sharply angled at that juncture. The curved corner makes foods easier to move around (fried eggs, for example; also scrapple, burgers, steaks, and grilled cheese sammys) or to stir (stews and the like). The curved corner also makes it easier to clean - nothing gets stuck in the angle between bottom and sides. I've had this skillet for a little over three weeks and it has performed up to my every expectation. It has taken additional seasoning well (the bottom is now almost as slick as Teflon - some of that may be due to using chain mail on it). My only criticism I have is that Calphalon doesn't make 10" and 8" versions of this skillet.
great
Very good
