Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Oster 3001 12-Inch Electric Frying Pan
Customer Review: Good size but lid gets very hot.
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this because I just love electric skillets and I needed a new one after my skillet of 5 years bit the dust.It arrived yesterday and I washed it as per the directions and then proceeded to season it and at dinnertime, I cooked chicken breasts in it. It did a very good job, the lift feature is pretty cool, drains the grease away from the food. The quick release latch is a much needed improvement over some of my past skillets. It says it is a tempered glass lid but it got very hot and the plastic handle on top got very hot as well. Maybe it was first time use but it just seemed too hot for normal use.
The small cookbook that came with it has some nice recipe ideas.
Overall, a good product.
Customer Review: The numbers on the temperature dial rub off!
Summary: 4 Stars
I thought I would put in my two cents, having this skillet for about three years. The good: It has served me faithfully and continues to do so on (almost) a daily basis. It cooks well and it is the most-used of all my electric kitchen appliances. I would recommend this product to anyone, minus ONE small detail. The numbers rub off the dial after a while, rendering the multiple temp settings nearly useless. I have adapted to not having numbers on mine, however. I just guess at it and have had no problems cooking anything. I have considered making new labels for mine, but I am afraid they would melt, given the heat that comes from the element.Customer Review: A better electric frypan
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased a larger electric frypan with a removable pan for serving and it was too big and the removable part was the part that was hot, even the handles. This frypan is the right size for us. It heats evenly, has stay cool handles, sits on the table nicely for serving. The only drawback is that the control fits under one of the handles which is a little awkward but I'm getting used to it.Customer Review: The Good and the Bad
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased the 12" Oster electric skillet to replace my 2 year old Villaware Electric Skillet.
The Good--The Oster cooks evenly, no non-heating spots, easy to clean. Large side handles keeps control from getting very greasy.
The Bad -- The control unit is very hard to put in place and keep connected, my husband has to do it for me,
and I'm an able bodied woman.
Customer Review: Nice Product
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently purchased this skillet at my local Kmart for $29.95. I have used it a few times so far and it seems to perform very well. It seems to get hot very fast so cooking time is quicker than I'm used to but I will adjust to this. I'm happy with my purchase.
