sotv Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Normally pay over £90 for the smaller ones over here. All Import duties and taxes included in price from Amazon USA. Ordered stuff from there before takes 2-3 weeks to come but delivered to door, (customs cleared) same as a normal UK delivery. Cheaper cast iron cookware out there, but I think Lodge Cast ironware is worth the money and an investment that will last you a lifetime if looked after.

sotv Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 For a tenner more I would order from Amazon Uk in this case, if any problems, much easier to return something big like this. Amazon Us I have found isn't always cheaper, but they have a much wider choice than Amazon Uk stock and sometimes have better offers on the same products available in the UK not in this case though The price has only been £7 cheaper in the last 3 months in the UK, and has only been a £1 cheaper in the US over the same time. So seems to be holding around this price for this particular model 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice, not sure the Lodge is worth it at that kind of money? If you where in the USA, then it’s reasonable, but in the UK? Have you looks for Ronnie Sunshine or Petromax (German)?

Icefever Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 We have loads of cast-iron dishes for the kitchen (red ones to match, it's a girly thing) but only one proper cast iron dutch oven. The problem I find is the one we bought is as rough as hell, so I find it hard work. Reading up on DO you find that a lot of it now comes from China. The one we have does, so I thought it would be good to buy a really good one. Ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotv Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) Since Xmas I had been trying to decide on either the 3.2 Quart Lodge Cast Iron Combo Dutch Oven/Skillet or the Lodge 5 Quart Deep Skillet. Went for Combo in the end last week , should be getting it later this week. Was looking for something to use on my grill and although the 5 quart is a 12 inch skillet and lid and the combo is only 10.25 inch the fact the lid on the combo doubled up as another skillet with handle swung it for me and they were both the same depth anyway,. I already have a dedicated Lodge Dutch Oven so to have another smaller one that doubles up to a double skillet with handles, should suit my needs hopefully Understand what smokin is saying there are cheaper options out there than Lodge. personally I have been happy with the quality of Lodge products I have purchased previously and have chose to stick with what I know, than take a gamble on something I don't , although I realise probably are just as good. Also added a non Lodge 10" Chestnut Pan a couple of weeks ago to my collection. Not had chance to use it, and won't till October as they're seasonal😀 But I do like hot chestnuts so hopefully will be worth the wait.

Justin Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I believe you are right mate, When you consider how long it will last you then the cost over time is a minor point. a quality product that last time which is joy to use is much the better option than a long term compromise. Like my Weber kettle which has kept me going over a decade and still works really well with no rust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icefever Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 "I done gone and done it" read like a redkneck.....cus that's how you have to talk when you use cast iron. I've gone for the Lodge, looked at so many and reviews on some of them, thought it's better to play safe. Ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) I also have the weber cast iron skillet which is a good size and brilliant perfomer. You will have seen at the tailgates when I make the tomato provencale dish for breakfast. Edited February 4, 2020 by Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
