Overview
Not a fixed pan, the Hamilton Beach electric skillet has a removable ceramic pan and a detachable power cord, with a tempered glass lid on top. The surface suits sautéing, stir frying, simmering and braising for family meals.
The reason to consider it is the large surface and the ceramic coating without PFAS, PFOA or PTFE. The limitation is size: it needs counter and storage room, and the dishwasher rating is not listed.
Who it's for
A household that cooks family-size meals on the counter and wants a ceramic non-stick surface. A solo cook, or anyone short on storage, may find it larger than needed.
Pros and cons
- Large cooking surface
- Ceramic coating without PFAS, PFOA or PTFE
- Detachable power cord
- Tempered glass lid
- Dishwasher rating not listed
- Large for storage
- Three settings only
Performance notes
A heating element under the pan sets the temperature and the ceramic surface releases food, so sautéing needs little oil. The glass lid lets you check progress, and the detachable cord makes the pan easier to carry to the table.
