like others have said, it does not heat evenly. Nor is it even level. When I put oil in the skillet to heat, it pools on the side closest to the plug. So I have to prop it up with a potholder to get the oil to flow evenly. Plus even on the lowest setting it is way too hot. If you turn it lower, the light goes off. Sometimes if you tweak it, the heat will stay on but other times it just shuts off. So it is very difficult to control a lower temp if wanted. All of these things can be worked around with patience and effort, but one should not have to do that.

Absolutely love!

this is NOT A SKILLET…. It IS a slow cooker(crockpot) style control— low to high. IF it were a skillet it would have temperature controls. Dont buy this if expecting a normal electric skillet like Presto makes. Im hoping the photos will help people who are expecting a skillet to see the difference.

I would have given this 4.5 stars (but alas there's no option to give half-stars). The heating element is not "centralized" but moving the food around helps even out the cooking. Heats up well, I would have PREFERRED if the dial had a Temperature Range instead of Low to High Settings. For example if I wanted to cook something at 325* F, there's no way of knowing what the exact temperature is unless you use a Meat Thermometer! I hope Manufacturers takes HEED - people NEED the Thermostat, not a "well this between here is medium - medium high"! I am a very precise!

After 2 months, the light stays on but it doesn't heat. Also, it never did sit level - it rocked a little when stirring food. It didn't heat evenly either. This is a very cheaply made skillet, which is so dissappointing because the size and color were perfect.

The pan was a welcome addition; its rapid heating and generous size are appreciated. After five uses, I am very satisfied, and the accompanying griddle is a useful complement. However, the skillet has malfunctioned, and despite suspecting the probe cord, replacement parts are unavailable. Therefore, I will have to discard it.

I am using my skillet for the first time today to make some sausage and peppers. I have it set on low. The unit heated up very quickly but now is shutting off for about 15 seconds and then coming back on. Is this a feature of the food is too hot or is this malfunctioning?

Love the size and you can cook about anything in it! Pizza, pasta, cakes, cookies, etc... I love how it doesn't burn my food it's an even steady heat. You can bake, boil, sear, saute, braise, simmer, and scramble. I just got it about 2 weeks ago and I've already used it 7-8 times. Also it's been so easy to clean most of the time you can wipe it right out. It is big but I wanted it that way. You even get an awesome lid and spoon holder with it.

I love the size. It has even heat all around it. I have a square skillet, but the heat isn't consistent. This one is very consistent cooks beautifully love that you can have a selection of colors. Also, it's nice, It has a stand for your lid and to put your spoon. Highly recommend.

I'm so glad I bought this Dash Family Size Electric Skillet! It heats up quickly and cooks evenly across the whole surface. The nonstick coating is great—nothing sticks, and cleanup is super easy with just a wipe-down. It's large enough to cook full meals for my family — I've made fajitas, pancakes, burgers, and even one-pan dinners in it with no problem.The temperature control is simple to use, and the lid fits perfectly to help things cook faster and stay juicy. I also love that it's not bulky or hard to store, even though it's a good family size.Overall, this skillet has become one of my favorite kitchen appliances — totally worth it for quick, easy, and delicious home-cooked meals!
