Great value for an electric skillet.
The coating in the electric skillet seems to be very high quality. This has been the problem with previous skillets that we would just throw away. This one seems to be a winner.
rethinking the electric skillet
I bought this skillet anticipating it would be handy while my kitchen is being renovated and I'd be without cook top facilities. The skillet is beautiful and has nice features but I decided it was not really necessary at this time. The size of it, quite large, could only be justified for me if it was getting consistent use as storing it would be a challenge in a house I'm trying to downsize. I'm returning it but for no other reason than I didn't think I'd make use of it enough to warrant the purchase.
WEAK
I received this skillet and the bottom of the skillet was dimpled in about 5 places. i sent it back. Looked very very thin for a base. For the cost its not worth it. Poor quality control.
Great Product, But . . .
I have had a love/hate relationship with this product. My first one worked wonderfully for about six months until the heating unit failed. While it was working, it was wonderful. Because I have a substandard stovetop, I use this product almost every day. I purchased another one. I used it almost daily for a year, and it again was terrific. Heats up quickly, and evenly, and has a nice, large surface area. Then, the nonstick failed. Now, everything sticks. I am debating whether to even consider this product again.

I bought this for my sister, who entertains frequently. It cooks evenly and clean up is a snap. She thanks me for it often.
