Presto 06850 16-inch Electric Skillet: Effortless Cooking and Versatility in One Appliance Review

So this is our second Presto electric frying pan of this size. We had our first in many years. Part of the leg broke off at one end. Sticky but doesn't last long. So we removed the cover, power cord and serviceable leg through the rest. So if and when this one breaks I have a spare.

I love the Presto 16 inch electric skillet! It's well made and food doesn't stick to it like other electric skillets! Also, Revain was about $10 cheaper than any other store in my area!

I finished dinner, let it cool and went to wash it in the evening and the handle broke off in my hands after pulling it out of the sink. I was really looking forward to this pan as I prefer the domed lid to the flatter glass lid that I had. I will exchange but shame I didn't have to. I think this is an older model.

Due to an injury that has not yet healed, it is difficult for me to stand at the stove and cook food. I had a smaller version of this pan that worked in a pinch, but I needed more cooking space (my sister now lives with me). We use it to make burgers, roast chicken breasts (whole and sliced). Bacon cooks up like a dream in the pan, we plan to use it for other dishes and the uses are endless. This way I can sit and still be in control of my food. Sometimes I find it difficult to adjust the…
