Presto 06620 11-Inch Electric Skillet

All I could ask for, almost...
I've been using this pan on a daily basis for about two weeks now and I can say it has met all my demands of it. Eggs and bacon are cooked to perfection without burning either. It heats up quickly, and low temperature works for most foods. I like the fact that the heat is contained in the pan and doesn't heat up the room like gas or electric stove top burners do. The lid is deep enough to allow you to cook a small chicken or roast. The last test I wanted to do was fry pancakes as one reviewer said it wouldn't get hot enough to do it. Well, I was amazed at how well it did fry pancakes. Using thin batter was better than thick, but it fried either one to a golden brown. As far as I'm concerned this is a top quality product and will do anything you require of it. The temperature control is in degrees instead of warm medium and high as some of the others I've looked at. That feature came in handy with the pancakes as the instructions were to preheat to 375 degrees. Well, that's what I did...

Great value for the price!
A nifty little electric skillet that fries, braises and bakes! I bought mine for fish fries but use it for much more, especially during the heat of summer since it doesn't heat up the kitchen like a conventional stove does. A great bargain for the price and lasts forever. Makes a great housewarming or shower gift too!

love this little pan
I think this is my 3rd or 4th of this little 11 inch Presto electric skillet. They don't wear out. I keep giving them away, trying new cookware. My space is too small to accommodate more than one cooking appliance like this.

This version of the Presto skillet is a little different from previous ones. Mostly cosmetic. It works great, fits nicely in my small space, is very easy to clean. The nonstick doesn't come off. It's light weight. It heats fast and cooks evenly. Not much splatters on the heating plug, which goes below the handle for some protection. Of course, the whole pan is submersible once the heating plug is removed.
