Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have to admit, one of the factors that lead me to buy the Lodge Pro-Logic 12" skillet was that it looked sexy.I read a lot of reviews, which were all generally favorable, but now, after having used it for a few weeks, I feel I might have been better off with the more classic design in the 12 inch.
A few things I'm going to keep in mind if I decide to replace this skillet include the size - the 12' measurement refers to the outside diameter.When you take into account the sloped sides, the flat cooking surface is more like 8.5 - 8.75 inches.A friend has a "Wagner 1891 original" in a 10.5 inch and the cooking surface is the same, give or take a quarter inch.The sloped sides may also make it easier to tip food out of the skillet or maneuver a spatula, but if you're interested in this feature for tossing and flipping food then you need to be a strong person with strong wrists, or get ready to have both hands on the handle (or handles) - this skillet is pretty heavy.
I was also expecting the handle to be more ergonomic, but It's broad and flat (about 1.5" wide) which turned out to be a little awkward for me.To hold it comfortably (and I have fairly large hands) I have to place the palm of my hand more fully on the underside of the handle for a more "underhanded" grip.Perhaps it's just me, but that's not usually how I hold a skillet.
The pre-seasoning works well - there was a little bit of sticking the first time around, but I was expecting that.All reviews I've read about the best non-stick performance of cast iron say it simply comes from years of use.
If you want sloped side cast iron for tossing and flipping food, I would recommend the Lodge Logic 10" chef's skillet.It's smaller, lighter weight, has a nice curved version of the standard handle, and if you're a stickler for detail, you might enjoy the presence of the pour spouts, which are not on the pro-logic 12".
Experienced Cooks may like or need some of the features of the Pro-Logic, and some might like a collection of different shaped skillets made out of different materials for all sorts of cooking, but I'm just an average guy who liked the idea of buying one skillet which would last the rest of my life.I would recommend a time tested design over the update.
