Great product.
Simple assembly out of the box. Heats evenly. Warms up quickly. The skillet is thick-walled and holds heat well. It is very heavy-duty and appears as though it will last a long time. Easy to see cooking progress through the glass top. Also, it's great to have it in black considering how difficult it is to keep an electric skillet looking great long term. The 25 year old skillet I retired for this one looked scary. I've been shopping for a larger, well constructed skillet for a while but thought they were all quite pricey. (I know, if I only buy one every 25 years I shouldn't be so cheap.) Anyway, this one sale-priced at Amazon was a better price than I was able to find at any of the national chain stores on sale. I have tried many electric skillets and this one is the best so far.....it's extra deep and the glass top really makes it easy to see what your cooking
Awesome skillet for the price
I love this skillet! I really can't say it enough. I am in college, and living in a kind of crappy house that came with a crappy stove. This skillet is great for everyday use for me. I use it to make grilled cheese, fry eggs, stirfry...pretty much anything! You just plug it into an outlet, and turn it to the desired heat, or just put it on "keep warm" if you want to keep like toast warm or something. It takes literally a minute to get to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
I definitely recommend this skillet. It is easy, quick, and great for one or two people! I have had it for over a year, use it every day, and so far no problems.
There are more expensive options on Amazon but for the 29.99 I paid its definitly doing the job well. I wouldn't spend anymore unless you are looking for something to use on a commercial basis.
Poor Quality Item
I am very disgusted with the quality of this item. After I got it out of the package I noticed the one side handle / legs combo was loose. I try to tighten the two screws, the one was apparently stripped, would not tighten. a month or so later that screw just dropped out. That handle is loose, and I have to handle in gingerly. The dial, the numbers on the low end in dark red, 200 to 250 degrees are next each other, no markings to keep a refer to each time. The next set of numbers is 300 to 425 degrees, right next to each other with black lettering in a dark brown, hard to read, no marking to be able to come back to each time, for consistent cooking.It's a hassle to repack and return to Amazon an item such as this. It does heat up quickly, but I'm not really sure what the temperature is at or near, just have to watch it carefully. From now on I'm buying small appliances locally, then I can see up close what the item looks like, and return, right to the store, instead of going to the...
