Universal N180 cast iron skillet set.

I bought this set after the recent issues with Teflon. I did my research on all non-Teflon items and decided upon iron cast pans as the Aluminum pans do give off some aluminum into the food and may (key word here is may) contribute to Alzheimer's (according to some), and the Stainless steel gives off chromium and nickel into the foods, both of which I am allergic too. Pure copper with no aluminum is extremely expensive; a good set of a few items are $600+. There are also ceramic glass pots and pants made by Corning/Pyrex called Visionware (also known as Visions) that can be found on eBay (and a few are left here on Amazon) as they are no longer in production. Finally, there are also items made of ceramics and clay that should be safe alternatives

The items have been great so far, however, you will really want to do some research in google (or any other search engine) on how to care for them as there are some things that you really shouldn't do such as rinse a very hot pan in cold water (it will crack or break) etc. In addition, you will also want to so some research on how to "season" them which makes them very close to being non-stick (you basically smear them with an oil than can take high temperatures and "bake" the pans for an hour at 350 degrees Fahrenheit). I did this and I just made eggs from eggbeaters without any oil which always used to stick in my nonstick Teflon pan, but very little stuck in my seasoned cast iron pan.

The downsides are that the handle can get hot when it is left on the stove for long period of time and that you cannot stick the pan into the dishwasher (and I tried....it will come out a little bit rustier-but the little rust does come off very easily). The sizes are also a little bit on the smaller side for me. So I think I will buy one more in a larger size.

The upsides are price, no chemicals (except for some iron) in your food, easy to care for, and very non stick when seasoned. This is a great starter set.

So I have a set of cast iron pots inherited from my grandmother need I tell u there from the 1900's so the best way I can tell you is to Use vegetable or corn oil to rub down your pots and pans down. With the new pots and pans this may take several times to do before u get the shine that I have on my pots keep in mind my grandmother had them from along time ago so it's prob the original. When washing them do not use SOS pads for this will scratch your pots .after washing and drying just take a Lil oil and rub the pans down and this will help season and keep from rusting. I'm 40 and my mother is 60 and the pots are still in good use and I hope to pass down to my kids as my mother still has several sets my grandmother sure did love her cast iron pots

I hope this helps but all in all they are the best. Did I mention that my pots are black oh and if you wash your dishes in bleach like u do please make sure you run it down with oil

Buy Universal N180 cast iron skillet set. Now

I purchased this set of pans based on the product description which described them as natural cast iron and that they need to be seasoned.Well this is not the case.The pans arrived and in big bold letters read "pre-seasoned". I was very disappointed.I do not wish to have a sprayed on chemical on my pans.I am not sure what pans the one reviewer received because she stated that they need to be seasoned.Obviously she received different pans from the ones I received.I spoke with Goodmans and they said they would send me an RA label to return the pans.I will get back to everyone as to what kind of credit I am issued and the time it takes to receive the credit.

I bought these pans because I thought they were unseasoned.They all came pre-seasoned.I called the company and they did not even know the difference.I asked for a refund, because they did not have any unseasned pans to sell and they assured me I would be reimburse for shipping and the price of the pans.When my reimbursement notification came in the mail I was only refunded for the price of the pans.Really dissapointed.
