Presto Electric Skillet (06850 16-inch)
A convenient addition to any busy kitchen, this electric rectangular-shaped skillet provides exceptional versatility. With its 16-inch-diameter cooking surface, the skillet can be used as a griddle for pancakes, French toast, and grilled sandwiches, or with the high-dome cover in place, it can bake a casserole, fry chicken, or cook a roast or a stew. The unit's heavy cast-aluminum warp-resistant base heats up quickly and distributes heat evenly, while its Control Master heat control maintains accurate cooking temperatures. The skillet's innovative EverNu cover won't dent, warp, peel, or bend, and the lid handle and side handles stay cool to the touch for safety. The appliance also supplies a nonstick surface, inside and out, to ensure effortless food release and easy cleaning. With the heat control removed, the immersible unit can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. The 1500-watt electric skillet measures 5-3/5 by 18 by 13-8/9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
Customer Reviews Of The Presto Electric Skillet (06850)
My skillets grew as my family grew. I still like the big skillet for when they come home for mom's fried chicken, I can't seem to fry chicken on the stove without burning it and the electric skillet is perfect for that. Anyway, my last one was scratched up which tends to happen over time but still was adequate, I just wanted a new one. I do want to mention that there is not a steam vent in the lid, I think that would have been better, it's just a solid lid (thus 4 stars). Unlike another review, I feel that this has a very durable coating, it looks like it could endure a lot b/c it is like my previous skillets as far as coating goes. They make plastic everything now as far as utensils so don't use metal!! I also use my skillet for fried potatoes, stir-fry, pancakes, pork chops and so many other things. It's a great skillet and I use it often.
It is exactly what we needed. It's got a lot of cooking surface, easy to clean and a heavy, tight fitting lid. (The lid isn't the common stamped sheet metal usually found but instead two layers with insulation inbetween.) Temperature accuracy is dead-on and cooking any dish is easier than on stove-top. It's large size makes it difficult to store, but it's worth it. I highly recommend the Presto 6850 electric skillet.
