This Electric Skillets give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Wonderful Skillet!!!
I cannot believe some people think this skillet is awful! I love my skillet and have been using it since Christmas. I can cook virtually anything on it, even pancakes, and cleanup is an absolute breeze! If there is anything stuck to it all you have to do is put in some water, heat to 200 degrees and it all comes off so easily. I do not think the metal is cheap; in fact, it is more non-stick than any non-stick pan I've ever used. Barkeepers Friend is useful in keeping it looking brand-new.I have found the heating to be perfectly even, much better than cooking on the stove. My only gripe is that it does not fit into my small dishwasher, but that is not the pan's fault. Truly, I love this skillet and use it all the time.
UPDATE: 06/18/2010
After two years there are some little issues. . . the skillet does warp, so liquid puddles in the middle, and the bottom screw comes loose every time I use it, making it even more wobbly. I still love to cook on it as it...
2. Disappointing !!
This product is made from very thin, cheap steel. I haven't seen quality this poor in many years. The manufacturer claims that the glass lid is tempered. This lid is the thinnest glass I have ever seen on a cooking utensil. Even the directions that come with the pan explain how easy it is to break the glass lid. On my first attempt to cook egg whites in the pan I turned the dial to 300 degrees. The canola oil in the pan immediately started smoking. This shouldn't happen, as the smoke point of canola oil is 400 degrees. At a loss for what temperature to use, I turned the temp down to 250 in hopes that I wouldn't end up with runny eggs. By the time the top of the white cooked, the bottom was burning. I highly recommend that you save your money and buy something else.

Presto Model 07300 electric skillet
Presto 07300 Stainless Steel Electric Skillet 12 inch
Presto Model 07300 has poor heat distribution. The area above the heating element heats up within seconds, leaving the rest of the pan cool, especially in the center. After less than satisfactory fried eggs and pancakes, my husband filled the pan with 1/2 inch water to see what goes on. Even at a low setting of "warm", water boiled at one spot above the heating element. At 250, the water boiled nicely near the heating element, but nowhere else in the pan, even after ten minutes covered with the lid. Nine months later, after making do with the bad temperature distribution as best as I can, the plastic support structure broke near the center. That is the end of this skillet. I hope that others have better luck with it.
