What reviewers didn't like
Needs to be pre-seasoned before using. Requires maintenance. Material isn't non-stick—oil is needed in cooking. No pots or lids in the set.
The heavy design may not make them ideal for the camper who prefers to travel light, but that same weight helps to effectively disperse heat evenly throughout your food.
Little expensive. Not dishwasher safe.
Very heavy. The seasoning isn’t as good as advertised.
Pieces are heavy. No lid for small skillet. Needs special care.
Not well-suited for ranges with glass cooktops; dragging the pans can leave scratches. Cast iron cookware requires a little extra care compared to other types of cookware, particularly when it’s brand-new.
Lacks the more specialized cast iron bits some might want.
Expensive. Hefty- 28.1 pounds (13kgs).
