After reading about the cancer-causing properties of Teflon, I got rid of my Teflon cookware and purchased the 10″ and 9″ LeCreuset skillets. I was a little skeptical at first because I had tried cast iron before and wasn’t happy with their results and upkeep and general dirtiness (Hey, it is not for everyone). What more can I say then I am completely sold on my LeCreuset now.
This is what I have found: Though they are less ’sticky’ then stainless, they are not as non-stick as Teflon. They clean up just as well as my stainless. I can pick up the hot skillet bare-handed without an oven-mitt, but it does get warm. My 10″ skillet chipped (a small chip) when I accidentally banged the edge against the other skillet so you have to be careful when wielding them. And compared to stainless, they weigh a tonne.
All in all, I am completely satisfied with them as a Teflon replacement, and will buy them again when the need arises.
