This is an awful electric skillet. As mentioned, it doesn’t heat evenly, and it takes FOREVER to cook anything. The handles on the pan get hot like the rest of the pan, so it’s a little deceiving because you think you can just lift the pan off when you’re done, but instead you burn your hands. Don’t buy it!

We got a new Rival electric skillet and the heating element stopped working within months. The manufacturer sent a replacement and that, also, lasted just a few months. So we are now on our third heating element (the whole bottom part that plugs in – not the pan itself or the lid) and it has also failed. We’ve had enough! This item cost about $60 and we had great expectations for it. We also have a great need for it. But, we would rather work out another solution than to continue with the headaches of this product. If you decide to purchase this item, good luck to you!

This is the 12 x 16″ model with the dial control that is not digital. The pan is removeable. The light still comes on when you turn the dial but the coil never heats. There is a small button on the heating element that matches up to a bump on the bottom of the pan and it is very obvious when you have the pan seated correctly.

Great design in concept and appearance, but you would do better to hold a candle under a frying pan. This skillet is raised in center so oil and liquids run off to edges. Even after checking and re-checking to make sure that the pan was properly seated on the base, it took forever to brown pre-cooked breakfast sausage and even cook scrambled eggs while this thing was on high (400). I’ll bet that had I left them in the pan and walked away, the skillet would not have been able to burn the eggs! I’m not going to keep it long enough to see whether the non-stick coating peels off after 3 or 4 uses as others have reported. What is most disappointing though, is that Rival continues to market this piece of garbage. They had to be aware of its performance long before making the decision to put it on the market, and that speaks volumes about the company.

This is an example of a failed design. The skillet worked once. The glass lid should have been a clue to the engineer’s incompetence, because glass lids are known to cause additional vitamin losses during cooking. I had originally thought that my bad experience was isolated; until, I read other reviews. There should be a rating for incompetent engineers.
