We have a couple but they really aren't any better than the cheap
Chinese or Korean cast iron frying pans we also have. One of the Lodge
pans just doesn't heat evenly and didn't from when it was new.
Whatever sort you buy check that the metal is thick enough, the bottom
is flat and the handle well secured.
