I have been using the 12" Lodge carbon steel pan now for about 5 months. Finally pulled the trigger on the 10" and 8" to complete my set.
I bought from Lodge direct this time. Any order over $50 got free shipping and qualified for a $10 discount. So I got both delivered for just under $63.
I used the 12" and wasn't sure about it in the beginning. I had some food stick a few times at the start. I scraped it off, used some course salt and re-seasoned it a couple times and now it's working great. Just as non-stick as a coated pan, I love it.
Some of the other pans had a better rating from ATK but you had to scrub the wax off and season it from the start. Plus I wanted to buy American made.
Can't wait to get the other two pans up to speed. Highly recommend getting carbon steel.
