Enameled Cast Iron Signature Iron Handle Skillet, 10.25" (1-3/4 qt.), Marseille

This is by far my favourite pan I have ever owned. I use it for almost everything! The weight of pan ensures no hot spots, just complete even heat throughout the entire cook surface. It's NOT a non stick pan but a lot of the time you'd be fooled by how easily food releases. I cook steaks, chicken, vegetables, fish, bacon, sausages, pizza, bread, shallow frying and pan sauces galore with no issues. The pan practically lives in the oven now and I also use it as a baking tray. One of it's greatest conveniences is the ability to finish off food in the oven without worry about any plastic handles melting or Teflon getting into your food. It's heavy, being a cast iron pan, but the extra handle on the end really helps moving it about. The spouts on either side are great for pouring off excess fat or liquid with ease. I don't have any issues with corrosion and you don't have to season it like other cast irons. It's hand wash and dishwasher proof if you don't care about seasoning the pan. You also do not have to worry about any coating and I've used metal on it for years with zero noticeable wear. Just about the only bad thing I can think about it is that the handle gets HOT... and if you're not careful you can brand the palm of your hand with "le creuset" so buy some silicon handles for it or be very careful. This pan seems so durable I have no doubt this thing will outlive me and be in my last will and testament as a family heirloom.

One of the best out there! As others mentioned, it works like a charm straight from the box. As soon as I received it, I cleaned it and made a nice scrambled eggs without having anything sticking anywhere. It is strange though why some individuals blame the pan rather than their cooking skills?

First off the coating inside this pan is ceramic and NOT non stick. The cast iron range doesn't have any non stick coatings (as far as I know) so some of the disasters reported in reviews are to be expected! With a bit of skill it's possible to cook without the food welding itself to the coating, it's about hitting the right temperature which is not full blast and glowing red, if you go too hot it will get sticky. There is a slight learning curve to get the most out of Le Creuset cast iron but once you get it they can't be beaten. I'm on gas and this pan is great, once hot it holds and distributes the heat very well and requires a surprisingly low flame to sear steak to a dark caramelisation whilst still rare inside. I've had mine for almost a year and it's used very frequently but still looks like new. A non scratch scourer is all I've needed to keep it spotless and the black ceramic interior still has the same lustre as it did when new. I also have a 16cm one that was my late Grandmothers that dates from the early 1970's that's seen better days but is still a great pan so I'm expecting this one to last well.

Beautiful-looking pan. Excellent quality. It's perfect for frying steaks and fish, as it makes the skin nice and crispy. Easy to wash. Once you learn how to use it correctly, it's perfect. I put it on the lowest gas setting, wait a minute when it gets hot and then fry, which makes it environmentally friendly. Don't use the medium setting because it will burn the food. It fries faster than other pans and retains heat, so, for example, it takes me less than 5 minutes to fry thick salmon fillets. The only food items that stick to it every time are eggs, and it's a bit heavy, therefore 4*. It's non-toxic, unlike Teflon, so better for your health. Overall, it's a must-have in every kitchen and I'd buy it again!

108 quid is quite cheap from Le Creuset! Got the black matted one in 23cm. I think other colors will chip away at some point and have black cracks, but a black one will always look the same. Just cooked some sausages with it and you don't need high temperature on an induction hob to cook to distribute heat evenly. It's very pretty, good quality, and the bottom is very flat. Very easy to wash with a soft sponge. Not as heavy as I imagined but also not as deep as I liked. Still very happy with the purchase. I find it so pleasing to look at I just leave it on the stove all time.

I was looking for a reliable and good-quality frying pan. Unfortunately, everything sticks to this pan no matter what I do. I gave it many chances — I tried preheating it properly, using more oil, and adjusting the heat — but nothing helps. It’s really disappointing and feels like a waste of money. Everything sticks to it, no matter how you cook.

Best pan I’ve ever owned. First time le creuset owner. After seasoning the pan multiple times as instructed prior to use, the pan has become totally non-stick. It’s incredibly easy to clean, wipe down with a non-scratch sponge without soap, dry with tea towel, light season and it’s ready to use again. It has a heavy quality about it. I use it for everything from eggs in the morning to steak at night. Great addition to any home chefs kitchen.

I was under the impression that this did not need seasoning as it was enamelled cast iron, although with a slightly grainier finish. Therefore I was chagrined to find my pancakes resolutely sticking to the pan. This resolved after the skillet was used a few times and had a chance to acquire a slight patina. Results have been uniformly fantastic thereafter. I would advise a little patience therefore, before passing judgement on this item. I find the size handy for my needs, and the weight easily manageable with one hand despite painful joints.

Très bonne poêle, elle est très pratique au niveau de la cuisson c’est impeccable me demande pas beaucoup d’énergie car ça chauffe une déformé et longtemps,mais un petit peu lourd Les aliments restent chaud assez longtemps , niveau nettoyage, se nettoie très facilement un peu d’eau et du savon y a rien qui accroche reste impeccable, je recommande à 100 %

Le Creuset Signature Gusseisen Brat und Servierpfanne This Le Creuset Signature Gusseisen-Bratpfanne (cast iron frying pan) truly feels like my first "grown-up" kitchen essential. From the moment I held it, the weight and quality construction were undeniable. There's a certain heft to it that screams "built to last," and I have no doubt it will be a cherished part of my kitchen for many years to come. While the 23 cm size might seem a bit small, it's perfect for everyday meals for one or two people. I love that it heats evenly, ensuring perfectly cooked food every time. The smooth enamel surface makes both cooking and cleaning a breeze. Plus, it just looks so elegant on the stovetop! This pan is definitely an investment, but the quality and potential longevity make it worthwhile. In fact, I'm already looking forward to expanding my collection with a whole set of Le Creuset cookware! I can even imagine passing this pan down to my children someday. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a beautiful, durable, and high-performing frying pan

Cosa dire, è bellissima ma soprattutto estremamente pratica e funzionale. Facile da usare e da pulire. Ovviamente non è antiaderente ma con alcuni accorgimenti i cibi non si attaccano. Le stelle sono 5 ma ne avrei date di più.

Super produit à tous niveaux et livraison rapide . Je suis enchantée.

It's a solid heavy pan that gives you much of the benefit of cast iron with less of the hassle. I can't speak for the durability of the surface but I see no reason why it shouldn't last if it is hand washed and not banged around and abused.
