Unfortunate failure
A couple of things to know. The first is that any cast iron pan will work with a nuwave. So will any steel pan or any pan that has iron or steel on the bottom. Aluminum no. Take a fridge magnet. It is sticks to the bottom of the pan, it will work.This is a heavy cast iron pan made for the nuwave. Unfortunately, in their zeal to make a superior product, they screwed this up. The pan has a thick, ceramic, supposedly non-stick surface. This is the exact opposite of the point of a cast iron pan....which become non-stick with use due to seasoning.The problems:1. The insurmountable one is steak doesn't fry right on this pan. The taste is very much like what you get with a George forman grill, The surface Maillard reaction isn't happening right. This reaction is the point of using cast iron.2. It's not non-stick. This is a two fer. Hard to clean (although due to the coating it can be washed with water) and seasoning sticks to the pan, not the steak. Standard Nuwave non-stick cookware actually works far better than this for both blackening (500 F) and bronzing (350 F).3. The handle heats up. Of course, this means you can use it in an oven but that's not what this is for.4. Oil beads on the surface...so it splatters everywhere. This does not happen with small amounts of oil on a well seasoned cast iron skillet.Ironically, this is really, really well made...just by people who understand engineering really well, but not cooking.

Do not buy this product!
I'm 69 years old and have owned two diner type restaurants, and was everything from a busboy / dishwasher to cook, waiter, and general manager of four other establishments. I think I know a little bit about cooking and cooking utensils. I have been using cast iron cookware for well over 45 years. This is the first NuWave product that I have bought that I cannot recommend and even recommend not to buy. Porcelain covered cast iron sounded to me like a very good idea, but in practice it stinks!! I think hot water would stick to this. Let alone any and I mean any type of food that you cook on it. Just got done frying some bacon on this griddle, which I preseasonef as I would any other piece of cast iron cookware. I added about a 16th of an inch of pure bacon grease to it preheated it and put five strips of bacon on it and it still stuck. Tried making pancakes on it and they stuck. Tried making a simple grilled cheese and it stuck. Absolutely worthless product at any price do not buy. If you want a cast iron griddle by a Lodge. Preseason them the way they tell you in the directions, and you will have a non-stick griddle that's better than the best Teflon coated piece of aluminum cookware you can ever buy-period!!!

Wishful thinking
My husband likes it. The skillet is quite heavy, more so than expected. Looks beautiful. BUT from the very first use everything sticks to it. He uses low heat, never high on any of our cookware. He has used vegetable oil, olive oil, butter & finally Pam spray & food still sticks to it. We wash by hand after it soaks for awhile. Never used any scraping type of sponge on it nor anything gritty, just soap, water & regular sponge. Read many review before buying. Some said everything sticks & some say nothing sticks. Not giving up on it yet.

To Shallow...
NIce looking pan, but too Shallow for anything but searing a Steak. You'd have a hard time, deglazing this pan to make a nice Sauce without it spilling over... :(And it's not good with the Nuwave (I have another brand it works well with) as the Nuwave heats on the center, so your by the time your Steak is Medium rare on the edge it will be Well done in the middle :(

Very Happy I Bought It!!!
I am very happy with this NuWave Cast Iron Griddle!!! I already had a Lodge cast iron griddle the same size as this and I love it and have used it a lot, but the NuWave griddle is porcelain enamel coated and therefore adds a whole new dimension to my griddle cooking!! I love it and I am very happy with it, and I almost broke my arm patting myself on my back for buying it!!!

It is handsome and functional.
I love the look of it as well as the.fact that it is cast iron and works on my heat induction range and NuWave induction burner. It is new so have not used but will for pancakes,griddle cakes and numerous things!
