Maybe it’s becuase i watched the pot, but this thing never got hot enough to boil water. After 20 min I gave up and packed it up to be sent back. Got warm, but not hot enough to cook on. Would be fine to keep coffee warm, but not much else. Very disappointing.

I purchased this to add to my outdoor kitchen as I needed some additional cook tops.
We use this outside, store it indoors.
It arrived very well packed. Is easy to use and it looks good.
The burnes are a bit slow getting hot, but that is to be expected with the cast iron. However it does a good job.
If you set it up to 5 it shuts itself off when it reaches the appropiate temp. At max it keeps going. We have used it for deep frying, boiling water etc. Pretty much all regular cooking is being done on it.
It runs about 1400 watts I believe, I am running it on a 20 amp circuit and it is fine.
Good product, good price.

I’ve been looking for quite sometime for a Good Quality Waffle maker and finally a Belgian Waffle maker that makes great waffles. The unit is great and clean up isn’t a problem, and the waffles come out great. Now only if i can find some great tasting waffle badder. If anyone knows or can suggest a waffle badder that not only looks great but taste great as well. Thumbs up on this unit.

I bought the WMK600 on April 2010 as a replacement for a VillaWare waffle maker I had used for 4 years. The Waring appeared from the product description to be well made. It had the desirable extra benefit of producing 2 waffles simultaneously. But this waffler was a DISASTER from the beginning! The waffles are inconsistent in texture, the first batch after seasoning the waffle maker invariably sticks to the waffler, the temperature control is erratic and unreliable and the waffles are soggy and, as far as I’m concerned, inedible. I’m not used to this: my VillaWare, which was also a rotating model, was dependable, made delicious waffles with no effort and no errors, produced waffles that were “crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside” (advertised, but not delivered, by the Waring) and was infinitely adjustable using the very accurate browning control. Please bear in mind if you’re considering the Waring that my experience, reported above, is based not just on one or two uses when the waffler was new, but on a dozen or more disastrous attempts at breakfast waffles over more than 3 months. My advice, in case you haven’t guessed: DON’T BUY IT!! I’d return my Waring and purchase another VillaWare in a heartbeat if Amazon’r return policy allowed it.

I bought this item for the sole purpose of deep frying. I used to have a 8″ pot, although deep, it would barely fit two pieces of chicken side-by-side. This dutch oven is perfect, I can fit three pieces of chicken with enough room between them. The heavy lid creates pressure inside the pot, essentially deep fry and pressure cook at the same time, which cooks the meat next to the bone without burning the skin or drying out the chicken.

This pot is perfect for cooking any number of dishes – from frying on the stove, baking in the oven or cooking on the barbecue. It is heavy, of the best quality and so good I’ll have to designate its future recipent in my will.

Again I found I can trust Amazon that I won’t be disappointed whrn I order something on line.

An excellent acquisition to cook buffalo meat patties on a gas grill. Buffalo with its 3 to 4% fat content falls apart when used the gas grill grids when flipped to cook on the other side. This Lodge cast iron grill allows me to spray PAM on the surface and cook away. It is used on a 22 year old Sunbeam cast iron gas grill.

Great product. We took it on a week long camping trip and cooked fajitas, pancakes, eggs, bacon, you name it on this little griddle. It fits perfect on a dual fual coleman camp stove and was a treat to use. One thing to note: since the camp stove has two different size burners one side gets much hotter than the other. If both burners on your stove have the same output then the griddle will heat evenly. No fault of the griddle, just be aware of what you are using it with. Love the product, considering buying another for our other stove.

I bought this griddle for my mother for Christmas because of its surface size. I didn’t see anything else this wide. My mother makes flour tortillas and this looked perfect. I also wanted something to grill on indoors. The day after Christmas, I gave it a quick light wash in soapy water, rinsed it well, and dried it. My mother made pancakes on it, which is always risky with new cast iron but they didn’t stick a bit!

The next day, I grilled chicken that had been marinating in a slightly sugary marinade all day. Even with the marinade, the chicken did not stick to the grill and they turned out absolutely beautiful.

I made hamburgers on it the next day. I just can’t stop using it. I love it! You’d think I bought it for myself.

I haven’t had any uneven heating issues, but I use it over an elongated center burner and I give it plenty of time to heat up all over before throwing my food on it.

Be ready to get a workout. It’s HEAVY. But, what do you expect from a cast iron griddle that is 12×20 inches? It’s a little too much for my 60+ year old mother to lift, but that’s mostly due to joint issues. Don’t be fooled though, she absolutely loves it and doesn’t mind a bit that I have to haul it out (and wash it) for her.
