This Lodge L8DSK3 Cast Iron Deep Skillet is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and versatile frying pan. Pre-seasoned and measuring 10.25 inches in diameter, this skillet is made of cast-iron for slow and even heating. It is 3-inches deep and comes with a looped cast-iron side handle and an opposite helper handle for easy maneuvering. With its great owner satisfaction, quality, convenience, and value for money, this skillet is one of the best cast-iron frying pans available.Aisa Brown: I love love my Pan grew up with cast iron and now I'm starting my own collection

Dindalungy: I have waited for years to find just what I wanted by a company I trust, at a reasonable price. Love it all: the size, depth, regular and helper handles and it being Lodge. I am very weak and often struggle to lift pans but this one, though heavy, has the helper handle which makes it very easy to lift and move it. I finally made Fried Chicken without having it either steamed in the Dutch oven or splattered to Kingdom Come with the shallower pan. Perfect chicken finally.

SolarbuddySolarbuddy: I bought this on Prime day because I was impressed with the use made this item by the Collard Country Cooking people. It works great, but for something “proudly made in Tennessee,” the workmanship (or quality control) is terrible. Look at the raw edges near the handle.
I still recommend it, but weep for American manufacturing when I use it.
Update: Check out the SUPERIOR workmanship in the third picture—a no-name Chinese skillet at Aldi’s for $12.

JustaDude: Can't argue with cast iron for cooking. This can go from stove top (don't know about induction) to oven to grill to open fire. Hard to think of something else that can do all that. Yes, taking care of cast iron is a bit different than your typical cookware. Stop and think though, how many of your ancestors used the same type of cookware for how many years? With proper care a cast iron can be something that you can leave to the next generation, and then the generation after that.
Whole heartedly recommend

Teacher_Mommy_on_Wheels: VERY heavy. Lots of TLC required. Versatile. Multi-generational. Reasonably priced. Lodge seasoned CI-made in USA.
First of all, for those of you who care about country of origin, rest assured that Lodge seasoned cast iron is made in the USA (the enameled Lodge cast iron however, is made in China).
Before I delve into the review of this LCI, let me just warn my readers that CI is rather heavy! If you have arthritis or a weak arm and had, you may want to consider a lighter-weight cookware.
Now on to the “meat” (pun intended) portions of this review…
Cast iron is a forgiving but high maintenance mistress! She will forgive almost anything (even allowing her to rust!!!), but she does require a little TLC before, during, and after each use. The TLC she needs is:
1. Before using: season CI
1) Cast iron must be seasoned before any use; luckily, Lodge double seasons its cast iron so that customers may use the product right out of the box, but if you need to re-season the cast iron product, follow these steps:
i) Scrub CI well in hot soapy water.
ii) Dry thoroughly.
iii) Spread a thin layer of oil (I like avocado oil, but vegetable or...

Ford David: The quality control could have been a bit better as there were some sharp edges on the handle and a small unseasoned area on the bottom that had started to rust. But, with a little cleanup and re-seasoning it is everything I expect from an iron skillet.
