Clean and still seasoned!

Exactly what I was looking for - makes cleaning up easy and zero risk of losing my seasoning layer!  :)

I believe I first purchased this off an infomercial back in about 2006-2007 and got the Showtime knives/holder as a bonus.  This has been my primary cooking source ever since.  It's stained and somewhat rusted from being in storage for a few months but still works like a charm.  I've grilled, toasted, baked, broiled.  It crisps things up nicely without the need for frying.  I'm actually writing this review because I was researching to see if Black and Decker still made these.  I've not had the bulb issues others have complained about except briefly when I got too aggressive while cleaning.  I let it dry for a day and it's worked fine since.  The only reasons I would consider replacing this is mine is starting to look pretty worn and I expect they've improved the technology somewhat over the past decade.

I found this product awesome. I read a few reviews complaining about the pre seasoning, but I've had no issues with it (and cast iron is my go-to for anything seared, fried, or requiring high heat). I just make sure to only wash it in light, soapy water and dry it COMPLETELY afterwards. Also, after every couple of uses, I wipe it all over with a lightly oiled (usually vegetable or canola) paper towel, and then again with a dry one. Helps keep the finish and prevent rusting.

My mother bought this pan many years ago and it has served us well. She recently bought a new one from Amazon (exact same pan) and I took the old one! The old one is getting worn out but still heats evenly and works well. When new, it's like having a buttery coated pan - nothing sticks to it!! As it ages, the non-stick coating still works pretty well. I mean, this isn't a super expensive pan, so set your expectations accordingly and you'll be happy! Highly recommended.

I received the 11-3/4 inch cherry skillet around the holidays and have been using it every day since. I cook chicken with the skin on, and make crepes, eggs and bacon in it, which many other users have mentioned in their posts. I've made several other dishes as well and find it browns everything perfectly. As far as sticking is concerned, if the pan is oiled and brought up to heat properly, it is practically a non issue. I just made chicken thighs in it last night and the skin remained firmly in place. It never stuck to the bottom as it did in my previous pan, which was a Scanpan. I really wanted to love the Scanpan, which I used for several years (and will still use it for a few things), but chicken skin and eggs always stuck to the surface.

As for cleaning this pan, after you let it cool a little, add some water, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wipe it out. Hardly anything sticks--and if it does, the rough side of a sponge should do just fine. It has an enameled interior, so it does not need to be seasoned or cleaned the way a solid cast iron skillet would be.

Some people asked about lids for it. I was able to get a remnant Calphalon glass lid from a local store to fit on it. The pouring spouts are exposed, but it doesn't seem to pose a problem. I used it last night for the last 15 minutes on the chicken and it worked beautifully. The inside rim is about 12" in diameter.

The other feature of this pan that I love are the handles and pouring spouts. The spouts are perfect for draining excess oil or liquids, and the extra handle makes this task much easier. Five stars!

One word comes to mind when I hear Orgreenic. Awesome!! I bought two of the ten inch pans about a month ago. I seasoned them as directed, twice just to be sure. I have been using them ever since and nothing has ever stuck in them. Actually I don't really even have to wash them. I just wipe them out and put them away. I don't have to use oil or butter anymore. I even scramble eggs in them without using anything. They really do work. I am amazed! I am planning on purchasing the larger one soon. I think it is very important to season them before using them. It's simple though. All you do is spray them with cooking spray and put them on the stove on medium heat and leave them until they start to smoke. Let them sit for ten minutes and then wipe them out. That's it! Like I said, I love the Orgreenic pans!

We've had this pan for almost 9 years.  Clean it with a baking soda paste and you'll be in the clear.  This pan has served me well over the years.  I would say I use it on average of 2-3 times per week and it has never let me down.  When I thought the coating was having issues, the manufacturer recommended scrubbing it with a baking soda paste. This, combined with a new dishwasher, made it so the build up disappeared. There was no issue with the pan, only the dishwasher that was unable to clean the pan adequately. I grill meat, vegetables, and quesadillas regularly on this pan.  In fact, this pan is usually on half my stove for most weeks as there is no point in putting it away at any given point. Buy this with the knowledge that it will serve you well.

Great skillet! We had one growing up so I decided to get one for my family. It says it is seasoned but you still need to season it before use and keep it well oiled after first few uses. It is now perfect. I love that it has the silicone handle! I even use it for things that may stick. When done I just fill with water and heat to boiling and turn off to let soak. It cleans very easily.

Very happy with this broiler pan so far!  I have made both salmon and steak on the pan.  For the steak, I lined both the bottom pan and top grid in foil, so of course clean up was a breeze.  I put the skin-on salmon directly on the grid with no spray or anything.  The skin stuck a little during broiling, but I let the grid soak for just a few minutes in hot dishwater, and it all came right off.  And this broiler pan is the perfect size for our family of four (and probably up to 6).  We can fit plenty on it, and it still fits well in the sink for clean up.  Over all a great buy!  I would definitely recommend this item!

I was asked to review this product. As an avid cast iron user I have been snobbish about the brands I have used. Shame on me! I have quite a collection and a dear piece that was my mothers (I am a greatgrandmother now myself) so it is smooth as glass. There is a learning curve to using cast iron and the proper seasoning before use is non-negotiable! A must. But you will never get better performance out of a long lasting piece of cookware. The Westinghouse Select series is a new brand to me. The price is out of this world! So much cheaper than others. Ok, price is awesome but would it perform as well. This piece arrived to me just prior to a camping trip in our RV and I liked the fact that the lid could be used as a skillet. Even though it says it was seasoned I never take a chance and ALWAYS season a new piece. Good rubdown with oil and set my oven to "clean". Never fails me. Seasoned pan and clean oven at the same time. I was very impressed by the performance of it. Quality is good and I look forward to using it for years to come and passing it on to the grandchildren some day.

I have made 4 loaves of bread in this pan so far and I love it!  When it arrived I made sure to season the whole pan (inside and out) with bacon grease...I don't care what anybody says, it worked really well!  I know it comes "pre-seasoned", but I always like to be on the cautious side and season it myself.  Before plopping the dough in the pan I make sure to coat the inside of the pan with butter.  There is no need to wash it doing it this way.  The bread comes right out with out leaving a crumb behind.

If you're looking for a nice cast iron bread pan that you'll have for the rest of your life, this is a good buy:)

So far so good, have used this new skillet twice since it arrived and both times, no problems. Heating appears even, and the coating remains intact. I hand wash it, and the finish has not discolored. It does mention that if you wash it in the dishwasher it will discolor the metal. It's easy enough to clean, food wipes off without much effort.

Have had the product for several months now, use it at least twice maybe 3 times a month,  and I am pleased to say that the finish is very good, like new, and it heats evenly. I still hand wash it, and it wipes clean easily. Love this appliance!

Update: Use my skillet every week and have had it for quite a while. There is a very slight chip in the nonstick surface around the rim of the pan, but it does not seem to be getting any worse. I think this pan has held up well for how often it gets used. I still hand wash it, and it looks like new. Continues to work well, heats evenly.

This is a great pan and we use it often.  I would prefer it were a bit more smooth and polished, but it still performs pretty well.  There is a black pre-seasoning coating that wipes off black sometimes.  I prefer a pan that is not pre-seasoned, but this has been working well so far.

I owned the older model of this grill for over 10 years until yesterday. I passed it on to my daughter. I am now replacing it. It still looked new. I never washed it in the dishwasher. I have always hand washed it. This was by choice of course. Though I am sure it would have held up just fine in a dishwasher.
  I found for me, after all these years, the key to keeping this grill in great condition when washing by hand, is cleaning it soon after use when still abit warm so the grease and etc comes right off. Dry it and store it away. You don't want to have to scrub it therefore the coating is protected for many years.
  The only negative thing about this grill old and new, is the temperature control. From reading the previous comments I see T-fal has yet to give us numbers or something to better see what the cooking temparature is.
  There has been many healthy meals made on this grill over the years. It is excellent for small meals and large. Whether you have a family of 5 or 1 and I have used it in all cases.
I have done chicken (all parts, bone-in and boneless), steaks, chops (bone-in and boneless), seafood, veggies, and of course pancakes. If it could be grilled, it went on THIS grill!
  I gave my daughter the "sermon or care" for this grill when I handed it over and she knows I will be checkig to make sure she is maintaining it. I think she can get many more years out of it. I know I am buying a great product when I purchase the new one. I can't wait until it comes!
  As far as the price, I can tell you, buy it. When this grill first came out it was ranging from $89.00-$119.00 reg price in my area. I happened to be at a store having a great sale one day and I got it for $59.99 back then, good for me! I think it is great that you can still get it for that price range after all these years. I just hope the grids are as good of quality as they were then. If not, my daughter will get the new one and I will be Reclaiming my Original one! Hey, all she wanted was "grill like mom's"!...lol

I've read the reviews where they say it rusts if not seasoned. Well I avoid that whole season it or it will rust scenario by covering the bottom with aluminum foil each time I use it...it never gets dirty, never sticks to my food, doesn't rust, and if you still prefer the grill indentations (to prevent steaming) the foil can be pressed to the shape of the grills. I feel this is the most convenient way to use it...just throw away the dirty foil and put the press in your cabinet! Easy peazy lemon squeezy!

No wonder The Wok Shop gets such great reviews!  I must admit I just got this wok and I have only used it twice but it is as good as expected and better.  Seasoning was a piece of cake given the instructions and the handy Wok Shop video on YouTube.  I ordered one for a friend at the same time and seasoned both at once.  I seasoned them in the oven twice.  They came out a lovely bronze colour the first time which deepened a bit more the second time.  It did smoke up my place a bit.  You may want to do this on a day when you can open windows as I set off my smoke alarm when I stir fried the chives et al to the point of charring per instructions... in two woks.

With just those two steps the wok is VERY non-stick already.  I almost pour the food out on the counter when I dished the contents out on to the plates.  :)

This stuff is great! Had to learn how to cook all over again - alot less heat necessary. But even burnt food cleans easily. Washing as opposed to loading dishwasher is no big deal. Most of the time I didn't have room for pots and pans anyway and these clean so easily it doesn't pose a problem. I did buy a couple of additional pieces because I do alot of cooking, have all the family on holidays... So that just gave me some cushion on what I use. You won't be sorry if you get this.
