Where is this made and is it already preseasoned like Lodge?

Yes, it's preseasoned but there is no "made in" stamp on it. I no longer have the sleeve it came in. I visited the Norpro site and it didn't say either. I use mine almost everyday. Lodge makes one that is made in U.S.A.

According to the Lodge website, the Seasoned Cast Iron Cookware is made in the U.S.A. like the skillet I purchased. However, the enamel coated cast iron cookware is made in China...

It is seasoned with paraffin wax. You'll need to re-season it, once you receive it.

Lodge manufactures all their products at South Pittsburg, Tennessee. They are the last remaining ironware caster in the continental US.

I cannot even notice the preseasoning. It's not greasy and there is no visible seasoning on it. It is an awesome pan! I've used it to cook steaks, sauces, and deep frying. You will not regret buying, I'm going to buy more soon.

I believe China. But not sure. I do know not the US as the only US manufacturer of cast iron cookware left is Lodge.So if you are not buying Lodge, the cookwrae is made outside the US. I will reiterate that I find this skillet to be of very good quality, I love it and have used it constantly for years and it looks like the day I bought it.

Lodge Cast Iron cookware products is the "only" cast iron cookware made in the US today. All others either come from China or Taiwan. Some of the accessories sold under the Lodge name are imported such as lid stands, camp tri-pods, silicon ovenmits, etc. etc.. I have been using "Lodge" products for more than 40 years and I can tell you will find "None" better. As a matter of fact I still have and use several pieces which I bought about 40 years ago. No I am I do not work for Lodge, but I did grow up in the backcountry of Montana and Idaho learning to cook with cast iron cookware and a "well made" Skillet or Dutch oven will out preform anything on the market today.

The Lodge bacon press I purchased from Amazon is made in China. All the pre-seasoned cast iron cookware, though, is made here in the good ol' USA. Food Network's "Unwrapped" did a show on Lodge's foundry in TN.

It IS NOT machined. I just received mine today. Although the bottom is much smoother than Lodge, the bottom is textured rather than pebbly. I hope that with a few years use it can be used to fry eggs and will become smooth. Meanwhile there are NO manufacturers in the U.S. that machine it's cast iron. Our only resource is estate sales and yard sales. Good luck finding the 'Prize".

No one really knows for sure. But mine (2011) came with with a nice insert on how to season it and did mention that it was made in the US. Did I get fooled? Possibly. It's still a nice wok and I'm happy with it.

There are no markings on the pan to indicate where it was made. Sorry. The pan is a very nice one, however.

Lodge's century-old tradition of excellence continues as we marry the benefits of cast iron with the beauty of porcelain enamel. Workhorses in the kitchen and show pieces on the dinner table, our enameled iron will become your go-to cookware. And with Lodge's pledge to quality, it is sure to be a part of fond memories for many years to come.Our enameled cast iron is made to our strict specifications by our partner foundry in China..................This sounds to me like it is Cast AND Enamel applied in China
