Presto 06617 Fry Pan Review

(More customer reviews)
I got an electric skillet in 1975 and used it until it quit many years later; then I didn't have one and didn't realize how much I missed it. I have this one now, and it is perfect to make pancakes in for one thing; I also use it for casseroles and keeps it warm when done cooking.I really like it for that reason; when family members can't eat together, it keeps it warm and tasty.It is an easy clean up and can all be immersed in water except for the probe that plugs into the wall and then into the pan base.Get one of the skillet cookbooks to go along with it; great gift for the son or daughter in college too.Casseroles, spaghetti, sloppy joe, grilled sandwiches, fry meats like hamburger or pork steaks, fry an egg and bacon, etc.Excellent for party buffet warmer. I will never be without it.

Black & Decker 12" Skillet Review

Black & Decker 12' Skillet
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was initially drawn to this electric skillet because of its capacity and after using it for two months, I'm still really pleased with that aspect of it. However, I'm really disappointed with the vast temperature difference from one end to the other and can't even make pancakes in it because of how easily one end will burn before the pancakes can cook through on the other end. Even if I start the "cool end" first, I'll still have the hotspots and burned pancakes. I have yet to make something like coq au vin where it will simmer unattended for a period of time and frankly, I'm even a goosey to try that because if history repeats itself, one end will cook much hotter than the other. This skillet certainly has wonderful nonstick properties and I love the surface area, but I truly wish that I would have used it more within its first 30 days so I would have had a better handle on its performance and I would have returned it.

Eclectic Electric Skillet CookBook Review

I purchased this book to go with the Presto Electric Skillet that I purchased at the same time.The book has some good recipies and definitely shows some of the fancier things that you can prepare with an electric skillet.The problem that I have is that I purchased the skillet and cookbook for my 11-year-old because she wanted to expand her cooking abilities beyond microwave meals and toast.Unfortunately, there are not many recipies in the book that appeal to an 11-year-old.I think it would be better if it included some more very basic meat and potatoes recipies that are more her speed.

The book does have some nice pictures but only has pictures for about a third of the recipies in the book.

I just purchased this skillet, and for the price, I am very pleased.I haven't used an electric skillet for years, mainly because they weren't durable.This one is attractive, heats quickly, and is easy to clean.I'm enjoying cooking with it - from simple chicken dishes to meatballs with sauce.The only disappointment, there are no recipes included with the unit, just a flyer describing a cookbook available for purchase (discounted, of course).All in all, I feel this was a good buy.

Continental CE23721 Small Electric Grill Review

Continental CE23721 Small Electric Grill
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This little skillet is not meant to replace something larger, but it's a great convenience and useful to take traveling. It took preparing two batches to make bacon and eggs for two, but they turned out perfectly, along with the fried potatoes that followed. I have even made complete meals - fried a cup and a half of vegetables (they cook down), emptied them out and scrambled eggs, mixing together in a bowl when done. It's really a very versatile little pan for one or even two people. It would probably make good French toast and grilled cheese sandwiches, tho I have not tried them. It maintains a decently high heat so you can fry things well.

However, the handle is really not easy to remove. So I don't, which means some danger when it's on the counter with the cord hanging down. If you have kids, this pan is probably dangerous - not only dangling parts if you don't want the effort of removing the handle, but it looks like a toy. You can't set a regular temperature, but you get used to using the tiny dial. I agree with the other reviewer that it would not work well with arthritis. The little glass lid works, but does not fit very well. Don't try to carry it with the lid on it - it wobbles off. If the pan was hot, this would be an additional problem.

The non-stick coating has worked so far in terms of holding up, but it does stick a bit over the area that has the heating ring, and sometimes requires paying attention to keep from burning. Still, at the price, it's a very useful little tool for small, quick jobs like caramelizing a few onions for a dish that doesn't otherwise require frying, scrambling up an egg for a snack, reheating a serving of something that needs a birt of browning, and as a traveling companion. Despite its quirks, I love mine and would buy it again.

I bought this skillet with high hopes, however, I was very dissapointed after using it, and I ended up returning it.The biggest problem is that the heating is extrememly uneven.Someting you are cooking near where the heating elements (under the skillet)may cook in 4 minutes while things not near the elements will take 12 minutes.The skillet also, did not have enough power to keep all the oil in it at a high enough temperature to properly fry things.

Presto 06852 16-Inch Electric Skillet with Glass Cover Review

Presto 06852 16 inch Electric Skillet with Glass Cover
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The 16" size of this Presto skillet actually ended up saving room in my kitchen because it replaced both an electric griddle and an old 12" electric skillet. This pan can be used for all kinds of cooking: griddling, frying, grilling, braising, roasting, even baking. The sides are high enough to use it as a chicken fryer or for stirfry. I can check how bacon is frying through the glass lid, minimizing spatter, if any. The temperature control is accurate and the pan heats up quickly, unlike my electric stovetop. In fact, you can get a perfect simmer by turning the knob down just till the light goes out. Also nothing sticks to it. The only two things you have to remember are: 1)spray it with Pam or some other cooking spray the first time you use it (just the first time), and 2)to maintain the nonstick coating, never soak it in water for extended periods (you won't need to soak it, it cleans up fast and easy). I really like this skillet and recommend it highly. I bought it in February and have used it regularly ever since.

NOTE: It is now May 2008 and I still use this electric skillet at least once or twice a week. It has held up beautifully and still looks new. I have to tighten the leg screws now and then but I'm not complaining. I would give this pan six stars if I could.
NOTE: It is now October 2008 and we still use this skillet a couple of times per week at least. It takes about 3 minutes to clean after it cools. I can cook just about anything in it. I like its temperature accuracy and the quick control I have over the heat. I use it all the time.
NOTE: It's now February 2009, and two years since I bought this skillet. I still use it at least once a week and it is holding up just fine. Other than tightening the leg/handle screws now and then, it works as well as the day I received it.
NOTE: It's now January 2010 and the skillet is still going strong. No problems with it at all. We use it every weekend for egg & pancake breakfasts with all the trimmings.

Product Description:
Made of virtually warp-proof heavy cast aluminum, this jumbo-size electric skillet features a wide 16-inch base with high side walls that neatly contain a variety of home-cooked meals. Use it to make anything from pancakes, scrambled eggs, French toast, and crispy bacon to grilled cheese sandwiches, hamburgers, fish fillets, steak, and more. Its Control Master heat control maintains accurate cooking temperatures automatically, whether roasting, frying, grilling, baking, or making casseroles. The unit's tempered glass cover traps in heat and moisture while making it possible to check on cooking food at a glance, and its stay-cool lid knob and generous stay-cool side handles help ensure safe lifting and transport. For added versatility, the sleek-looking skillet can also be placed on a buffet and set to "warm" to hold the temperature of previously cooked food for an extended period of time. Best of all, the skillet comes with a durable nonstick finish, inside and out, for effortless food release and quick cleanup by hand or in the dishwasher (with the heat control removed). The 1500-watt electric skillet measures 23 by 13 by 9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
