Cucina Pro 1453 Review by J. Hitesman (Sacramento, CA)
I bought the stainless steel skillet because I don't like cooking with Teflon coated pans. This is a very nice looking skillet. It heats evenly and works well. The handles don't seem to get hot even though they're steel. The legs have rubber tips so it sits firmly on the countertop. The heat control takes a little getting used to since the skillet seems to heat very hot on any setting just at first before adding the food. (The directions say to preheat.) Once the food starts to cook I find that I have to adjust the heat several times before I get it just right.
I emailed the company before purchasing and my questions were answered quickly. The customer service person also suggested that "the best way to season it is to cook bacon in it. You can use something like Brillo in the stainless steel skillet, but don't do it in standing water. Steel wool will flake off and it could float around in the water and enter the plug receptacle and possibly short out. I just let mine stand on the counter while I use the pad." I found this additional note very helpful. It does have vents on the underside so I don't immerse the pan in water anyway, just in case. It cleans up very easily when I add some hot water and let it sit for a while.
I had a Farberware electric stainless steel skillet for over 35 years and I loved it. But after a few years the control went bad and I had to buy a new one. Then several years later the legs started to fall off (the bakelite burned up.) So I have emailed the CucinaPro Company to order another control and some legs as spares; I haven't heard back on that yet.
My only problem was that I couldn't find one in any local store so I could see it before purchasing this unit online.
Cucina Pro 1453 Review by Susan Manfredi
We have a traveler trailer and I prefer to use an electric skillet instead of my stove. I've had other skillets with teflon coatings thinking they would be an easy clean up, but instead the teflon was coming off/scratched too easily. Since my other stainless pans clean up so well, I wanted to find an electric skillet that was completely stainless. The skillet might seem pricey to some, but considering the other skillets I've purchased and discarded, this one was well worth the money and I have been completely satisified with how it works and the ease of cleaning! If you are hesitating on whether to buy this skillet, DON'T!!
Cucina Pro 1453 Review by Laura Roberts "Laura Roberts" (Waddell, AZ)
I wanted an electric stainless steel skillet, because I was tired of having to replace the teflon coated ones, because no matter how careful you are, the teflon flakes off. So I spent a lot of time looking online for one. This skillet (as well as the larger 16 inch size) had 5 star reviews whereever I looked (Amazon, Cooks.com and a few other places) but it was really expensive. I had to wonder, could it really be worth the money? Well, it is!
I have had it for a few weeks now and I have made french toast, ham and eggs, chicken-fried pork chops and cream gravy, creamed corn (from scratch using heavy cream) and several other things. The skillet is amazing. It cooks evenly all over (not just where the "heating" element is), and when you turn it to "keep warm," that's exactly what it does. Totally fabulous.
It cleans up like a dream. Once it cools down, I put some soapy water in it for a few minutes, then use a sponge to get what's left. Absolutely beautiful. And no teflon to flake off.
I only have a couple of cons with this and they are so minor, that I still give it 5 stars--the instruction booklet gives recipes, but no temps, and I find that almost everything cooks at 250 or 300. Also, the instructions for seasoning it, are flat out wrong. Thank goodness I checked the reviews and used bacon for the job. Otherwise this is the perfect skillet!
