Finex 8-inch Skillet

Expert Opinion

Professional reviewers applaud the FINEX skillet for its spectacularly smooth, polished surface that behaves like a near‑non‑stick pan, its even heat distribution that excels at searing steaks and salmon, and its innovative speed‑cool stainless‑steel and brass handles that stay cooler to the touch. They also commend the octagonal shape with dual balance rings and the chemical‑free, flaxseed‑oil pre‑seasoning, while noting the heavier weight and the separately sold lid as minor drawbacks.

What Users Say

Everyday users consistently praise the skillet’s effortless release for eggs, its striking heirloom aesthetic that serves as a kitchen conversation piece, and its versatility across stovetop, oven, grill and induction. Common themes include love for its searing capability, easy cleanup, and the fact many call it their “favorite cast iron.” Recurring complaints focus on the skillet’s heft, the need to buy the lid separately, and the premium price relative to more budget‑friendly cast‑iron options.
