bella 12" Make & Take Electric Skillet with EverGood™ Ceramic Nonstick Coating, Adjustable Temperature, Dishwasher-Safe Glass Lid, Plum

Get this one, not others. (Honestly, I am not sure if the electric power in my area at certain times of day fluxgates or what. or if this item keeps it or not at same degree.) 1.) The instructions are very clear, %26 it does say how it will pause at certain times for some impt. reason. 2.) All I know is that you should get it because it has a CERAMIC lining, not a black Teflon- type lining. 3.) Instructions state that if there are "stains" --meaning stuck on foods- and all these elect fry pans can stick at times -for tougher stuff, just put some baking soda and a little water or dish soap for a minute -and rub it off. Also, just lower the temp overall. 4.) It also says you can add water or liquids any time to the cooking process, as it will not hurt the pan. 5.) It is a pretty light aqua color. 6.) It is a bit heavy, but made to last. 7.) It has two lid clamps so the lid does not slip off when stationary %26 some kind of feature with it that you can stand it on its side to store it on some shelf like that to save space. 8.) Because of this feature, it is a bit heavy and cumbersome to flip around in the skink to clean it. And those base- plastic parts are not removable. 9.) What is nice about this one in addition to the ceramic lining that is safer, is that it is nice %26 deep, has a heavy glass lid with a little hole in the top to let out steam, %26 it does not spray all over on the sides or thru the hole. 10.) The cord feature has a simple dial setting, no silly digital nonsense to work with. A simple cord %26 setting knob where you inject into the contraption to cook. 11.) The outside of it is also very easy to clean, as is the lid %26 entire thing. 12.) Also, it is not too wide like some that requires a lot of oil. 13) I use it for everything: frying, boiling, whatever... No major complaints. 14.) Get this one because I've ordered several others companies' over the years %26 they have really fallen from grace this year, but this one was the best with everything comparatively speaking. 15.) For example, one company's I had been using, the coating came off, and it was made poorly so that the circular cooking element on the bottom of the pan burned the food, %26 its new lid has a bad design- a large open pouring-lip/ spout on one side of the pan and/or the cover made the liquid evaporate too suddenly, as you can't ever cover it completely, so boiling pasta and other stuff spay all out of it! Just get this one and endure the initial heaviness / cumbersomeness, so if you have a big sink or a two- sided good- sized sink, it will be fine. Your hands and arms will get stronger too. LOLL 16.) Food does stick to it a little in that fry-pan circular element on the bottom like I think they all do nowadays, but the first week, it prob won't stick. LOLL , but just keep the cooking temp lower than usual... heat of breaded meat or whatever lower than you might 17.) I wish they'd make one that goes hotter than 400 degrees to fry special things. 18.) Elevated legs

When I saw this Bella Electric Skillet, I knew I had to have it! First of all, it's purple. It's not easy to find purple things for a kitchen, especially appliances. When I do, I buy it! It comes in several other pretty colors, if purple isn't your thing. We've had it three days now and have used it every day. It's so versatile! It heats and cooks so well, every meal! Clean up is easy because nothing sticks!! I am very glad I bought this!

Bella has a place in my heart. Beautiful addition to your kitchen for its efficiency and overall quality. Powerful enough as it heats up the whole pan cooking area. Well made to have handles cool during cooking. It may be too big for my current cooking needs but definitely worth the cost.

Great quality, excellent design and functions flawlessly. Even heating and exact temperature control over entire surface. Professional performance at a remarkably low price.

i just used it for the first time and love. Great for summer as a stove warms your place more than this cooker. Also it doesn't stick in the middle like a large frying pan.

The style and look of the skillet is protected by a riveted circular metal surround, that many other skillets have. The big problem I have is that the Plug easily disengages during cooking and is hard to insert. After using, the prong tip is changed in color and hard to remove. The unit takes a very long time to achieve max heat which may be attributable to a faulty control connection.

I thought I would like this design. Actually I thought the pan seperated from the bottom. I think it would be very hard to clean. I returned it to the store.

The product failed to maintain heat. My attempt to utilize the product. The second time it seemed as if no heating element was present since it is currently passed my 30 day return limit. I am totally unhappy. Beautiful product to look at but functionality is poor.

I thought I would love this skillet. It was beautiful, and it had features that others don't have such as cord storage. Unfortunately I purchased and returned to because they were cracked. Metal was actually cracked. They weren't dropped or mishandled. I used the first one before I noticed the crack and they gave me my money back. And I didn't even use the second one because I turned it over and noticed the crack right away. I don't know if it's a problem with shipping or a manufacturer's defect.

The vent hole in the lid is unfinished. A hole cut in glass with rough edges. I included pics. The 1st is Bella the 2nd is T-Fal sauce pot. I expected a vent liner like the 2nd pic.
