Product Description
Amazon.com Review
From warming and crisping to cooking a frozen pizza at 400 degrees F, chances are this electric skillet from West Bend will have your cooking needs covered. The deep-interior nonstick skillet is ideal for frying, roasting, simmering, and sautéing, and the adjustable temperature control makes it that easy. When dinner is ready, it can be served in the 4-quart glass casserole cover if desired (a wonderful feature for bachelors and students). Once the temperature control is unplugged, the skillet can be fully submersed in water or it can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Some assembly is required for the legs. --David Drury

Warning Serious Design Flaw Can Cause Injury,
By A Customer
This review is from: West Bend 72132 12-Inch Electric Skillet with Glass Cover (Kitchen)
When I received this skillet as a gift, I thought the glass cover that doubled as a casserole dish was a great idea. Unfortunately, there is no way for steam to escape while you cook with the lid on until you lift it up. The only way to lift it is by the sides -- two glass lips on the edge of the lid. Unless you are wearing two oven mitts that fully cover your hands, you run the risk of getting seriously burned by the escaping steam. I have a fairly serious burn from lifting the lid using hot pads. I even lifted the lid slightly with a fork to allow the steam to escape before I grasped it with the hot pads -- unfortunately it was not enough to prevent the injury. If you purchase this item, I would recommend using it without the lid.

Too hot to handle!,
By A Customer
This review is from: West Bend 72132 12-Inch Electric Skillet with Glass Cover (Kitchen)
If you are going to use this item, please read the instruction booklet completely. Not only (according to the instructions) is the glass cover prone to breaking, shattering, cracking, etc., handling it while cooking appears to be an adventure all by itself. You can burn youself a number of ways from lifting the cover without a great deal of protection, to just tilting it the wrong way which may release hot steam on your body (it's all there in the book.) It looks good, is pleanty big and has an easy to use heating control switch (it appears). I didn't try it, though. After reading the instructions and noting the "caution" inscription on both handles of the cover, I quickly repackaged it and returned it. No adventurer, I.

Burned more than once!,

This review is from: West Bend 72132 12-Inch Electric Skillet with Glass Cover (Kitchen)
I own this fry pan. I am looking for a new one. This one is hard to use. The glass top has glass handles on the sides of the lid. When the pan is hot the lid and handles are very hot. You have to use pot holders on each side of the lid to lift it off. Steam escapes as you lift it off, and you rarely escape getting burned. I would give it no stars if that was an option.
