Proctor Silex 38520G Nonstick Electric Skillet, Black

We use this skillet several times a week & LOVE IT!!!It's way better than the Presto non-stick 16" skillet we tried because that one didn't leave much room for anything else in the dishwasher.This one not only leaves room in the dishwasher but has non-skid pads on the feet.The Presto slid around on our stove/counter top.We love the clear lid on this new version of the Proctor Silex & the fact that you can order the handles only if 1 gets broken but the rest of the skillet is fine.This is our 2nd or 3rd Proctor Silex non-stick electric skillet in 20+ years of marriage (1st 1 was a wedding gift that we wish we would have started using a lot sooner).They last a long time if you are careful to not damage the non-stick coating--do NOT use metal utensils in it.

Well, let's just say I was a more than a little underwhelmed by the Proctor Silex Electric Skillet. Why? For one, the lid was bent out of shape -so much so that it wouldn't fit on the skillet. Granted, I wasn't expecting too much, as it is bargain priced, but at the same time...jeeze, you want the basics. A lid that's not made of very pliable aluminum would be one of those basic items. Secondly, it's not at all sturdy. Not that I'm planning on dropping it on the floor, but accidents do happen. One fall from the counter, and this thing will be done for.

Other than that, the skillet warms up nicely and is ideal for basic cooking. We tend to use it for pancakes, so the lid really isn't too much of a n issue there.

Would I get it again? No, probably not. I'd go with something a little more sturdy, a little more high-end, and a name brand. You do indeed get what you pay for.

My old skillet was smaller so I do like the extra space.I was concerned about the thickness of the aluminum being so much thinner compared with my old one.However, since I have some problems with heavy appliances/pots, etc. this lighter weight is quite nice.I really enjoy the glass lid for keeping and eye on things.The nonstick is so far just great.I would have liked some method to hook the lid to the pan which forms a splatter shield and is somewhere to put a hot lid (had one years ago).However, being glass, it might be too heavy or otherwise not possible.Haven't used it long enough to give it 5 stars, since one of the drawbacks may be when simmering if the thermostat has too long a response time.It is a good skillet.

Sorry to say, they just don't make 'em like they use to.

The center area of the pan did not heat up well, and the areas ( where the heating element is on the underside of the pan ) seemed to have varying temperatures of heat . In browning pork chops, some chops were browned .... then others weren't. Overall,inconsistant heating throughout.
