Which one should you buy?

The Lodge 10.25 inch skillet is the one to buy first: pre-seasoned, oven and induction friendly, and backed by more owner reviews than anything else here. Cook for a crowd? Size up to the Utopia 12.5 inch. Hate seasoning? The enamelled Le Creuset never needs it.

For full context on why we ranked these the way we did, what alternatives we considered (and rejected), and the broader buying-guide framework, read the full Best Cast Iron Skillets in Australia (2026).
