Cast Iron cookware is a good investment,You need to season it again,I sanded down the bottom insides of all the pans, i washed it and , well i had bacon grease, greased it down outside and inside and baked it for an hour on 400 degree's, It turned out Great!, Excellent non stick surface

I was really impressed with these. I loved the easy clean and the way they cook. More expensive pots and pans have a certain evenness in the heat when cooking. The metal core of the pan/pot dissipates the heat evenly. I've bought cheap pans that will have certain areas of the pan that burn food while other areas do not get hot. These work just as good as expensive copper core pots/pans at a bargain price. My only beef was that the must have been sitting a for a long time in some dirty warehouse. They arrived pretty dirty. Not a biggie though. I cleaned and seasoned them. Gonna BBQ with these this Summer! :-)

These are my first cast iron pans so I don't have anything to compare them to but I love them. I've used the frying pans most often and the dutch oven only once so far since buying this package a few months ago. I think they were pre-seasoned but the two frying pans did stick a bit on the first few uses. I've seasoned them a couple times on my own which really improved the non-stick surface. The combination of items in this package is really amazing. Everything you need and good quality for such a cheap price.The one complaint that I have (4 stars instead of 5) is that I'm not so sure about the heat conductivity. I have a burner on my stove that is out in one spot, which is always a problem when cooking. I thought this shouldn't be a factor for cast iron because every inch of the pan should distribute heat evenly but I've still have this problem with both of the cast iron frying pans. Overall though I love the way they cook. Cast iron is, by nature, versatile and a great companion in the kitchen. These are good cast iron pans.

I bought these cookware set a month ago. I have seasoned them, although they are already pre-seasoned. I would recommend doing it to avoid stickiness. They are great pans, but require care, not to say that they are healthy. I am satisfied with my purchase.
