Beautiful But Shallow,
January 30, 2004 "kacarlson2" (Oregon Coast, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rival SS120 12-Inch Stainless Steel Electric Skillet with Tempered Glass Lid (Kitchen)
Needed to replace 6 month old, unattractive Black and Decker teflon skillet. Read Amazon reviews on 16" version of this skillet. Decided to get the 12" one. Skillet and probe arrived in perfect condition. 16" skillet would have been HUGE. It's a beautiful appliance, but I wish it were deeper for larger capacity and to help contain splattering. So far I've fried chicken and the next morning I did pancakes. Took time to season the skillet and carefully followed instructions for first time use. Found it easy to clean, cooks evenly, and if it were DEEPER, I'd rate it 5 stars. Rival, please make one.

I've found that this skillet heats unevenly, therefore making it necessary to frequently stir things to assure uniform cooking. Moreover, there is virtually no "simmer". If a low temperature is set, the heat goes off and eventually comes on again briefly. Cooking items that require simmering requires close monitoring and regularly reseting the heat, a real irritant.

Cooks and looks great. We have cooked many meals in this frying pan and it has done so well that we ordered a second one for our cabin. As for looks, we used it to keep our gravy warm on a serving counter for thanksgiving dinner. Thanks Rival.
