Amazon.com Review

This attractively shaped oval electric skillet has the capacity of a 15-inch round skillet and cooks breakfast, lunch, or dinner for six to eight people without requiring you to turn the stove on once. Equipped with a warming setting, this skillet also works as a buffet server to conveniently brown sweet and sour meatballs or grill appetizer-sized cheese sandwiches and serve right from the same pan. The heat control ranges from 200 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (in 50-degree increments) and automatically maintains the proper heat setting so foods cook at the same rate as they would on the stove but in a more energy-efficient manner than a range or oven. Made of heavy cast aluminum, the skillet has a beautiful white-colored nonstick interior and exterior surface so meals won’t stick and clean-up is easy. The durable tempered glass cover shows what is being served at a buffet and lets you monitor cooking progress. The skillet rests on two plastic legs that won’t transfer heat from the pan. With the heat control removed, the skillet is fully immersible in water and dishwasher-safe. Presto covers this electric skillet under a two-year warranty and warns against using metal utensils with it as they will scratch the nonstick surface. --Cristina Vaamonde

One Fine Skillet! - Faye L. Bowring, May 04, 2008

It has been so many years since I cooked with an electric skillet and didn't realize how much I missed having one until I received and used the Presto Electric Skillet and Server.

After using it several times, I have no complaints other than I do wish it had a steam vent in the lid. It is a great skillet-large enough to produce family meals, easy clean-up, and a very attractive item if you choose to serve from it. Other reviewers mentioned having problems with the handles which, so far, I have not.

Presto includes a small paper quick guide without recipes. However, they do give you their web address where you can download an instruction manual and buy their electric skillet cookbook, parts/accessories and other Presto products.

Perfect size - Garline J. Wheatley, Feb 11, 2008

I was concerned that this Presto electric skillet would be too large and hard to clean. I was worried for nothing. It seems to be the perfect size, no matter what I'm cooking. After dinner I load it in the dishwasher and it comes out looking brand new. I've never been happier with a small appliance. Highly recommended.

Electric Skillet Is Great - Martha J. Rogers, Nov 03, 2007

Presto 06841 Professional Electric Skillet and Server:

This Electric Skillet is perfect especially if you live in a casita that
has no kitchen...you can throw in a pot roast with all kinds of vegetables and you have cooked the entire meal in the skillet. It is
great. There are so many things you can do with this skillet...such as
cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner in it.

So far So good - Cloureen A. Mahabir, Jun 27, 2007

I have owned my new Presto Skillet for a little over a month, and I love it, I believe that this is what non stick should be like, food never stick to the surface, its easy to clean, most of the time I just use a paper towel to clean it, depending on what I cook in it. I recommend it.

Great Skillet - Mother Goose, Jun 10, 2007

The finish on this skillet is the best I've ever worked with. Cleaning is a breeze. It is a little large for two people but I can now cook almost the entire meal in one pot. It arrived well within the delivery estimate. I would deal with this company again in the future.
