 Great Deal on These Pans January 7, 2009
WE LOVED THE PANS!! WHAT A GREAT DEAL. THE ONLY GRIPE MY HUBBY HAS IS THAT THEY WERE NOT MADE IN THE U.S.A. THE 12" PAN WE BOUGHT ALONG WITH THESE WAS MADE IN THE U.S.A. SO HE WAS HAPPY ABOUT THAT....LOL. GREAT DEAL!!
 One look and they went back in the box. November 28, 2008

This purchase was a big mistake. I want good quality cast iron for cooking. However, this black paint looking stuff on modern cast iron that is described as 'pre-seasoned' is nothing but another contaminant for our food. I have already seen too many of these in stores with the 'pre-seasoning' chipping and peeling off. I won't risk cooking in these even once.
Why can we not purchase cast iron that has to be seasoned by the purchaser the old fashioned way? At least then I would know what was getting mixed in my food. I didn't send these back to Amazon only because the shipping would have taken 2/3 of my refund. These will go in my next garage sale still in the original box and unused.
Also, I was not aware that these were Made in China until I saw the paper sticker on the bottom of one of the skillets. With all the dangerous contaminants that have made the news in the last year on products made in China I certainly do not trust that the 'pre-season' material is safe. If the Chinese found a way to make it cheaper with some dangerous substance they probably did it.
I did manage to find a vintage Wagner skillet of the size I need most listed on an auction site and purchased it. No 'pre-season' paint on that one.
Unless you enjoy eating black paint, buy something else November 13, 2008
These cast iron pans are heavy and appear to be of good quality except for the fact that after only two or 3 uses, I get black paint from the pan in everything I cook. I have some lodge cast iron pans and they are wonderful. Spend the extra $2 on lodge pans and you'll love them. The smallest pan in this set is useless.
 "The preseaoned coating is meant to be temporary"??? October 9, 2008

I purchased this set a month ago. Let me first say that this is a small skillet set - be sure you pay attention to the listed sizes. I didn't and was a bit surprised at how small they were.
After reading the reviews prior to ordering, I made sure that I RESEASONED all three skillets prior to using and also used no detergents, only a brush and water to clean. I only used the largest skillet a handful of times before the coating started to come off! I decided not to go through Amazon and complain, but go directly to the manufacturer, Heuck. This is their response:
"Thanks for your purchase of Heuck cookware. The preseaoned coating is meant to be temporary - it isn't a permanent coating. Normally it wears off with use in 6 months to a year; afterward the pan has to be seasoned. In your case, the use of the brush may have caused the coating to begin to flake off. Sometimes there are rough spots in the coating and part of the coating could flake. It doesn't represent a hazard, but you'll want to season the pan according to the use and care instructions right away to make sure it doesn't rust. You also have the option to return to Amazon for exchange or refund if you'd rather do that."
Interesting that because of the coating I did not have to SCRUB with the brush, so I doubt it was the fault of my brushing. I believe this to be the fault of poor manufacturing. I realize this was a cheap set and I guess I get what I paid for. Too bad really. I love cast iron and will continue to purchase cast iron, but never again any product from Heuck.
Used properly for a couple of months & now paint is coming off! July 25, 2008

I thought these were awesome for the price as they seem to cook well as long as you preheat and season (able to even cook eggs fine). But after using them for a month and a half or so the paint is coming off (we never use soap just warm water and a wash cloth or soft scrubber to clean). The reason we went to cast iron was for the health benefits but now I have to wonder??? I plan to purchase a Lodge pan as they seem to have very good reviews.
