Lideer 26cm Smooth Cast Iron Skillet CN¥303.76 (~A$67.13) Delivered @ 立德尔旗舰店 via Taobao

20

This is the cheapest machine smooth cast iron skillet I have seen from looking online and it's actually got a great design. I personally find the handle comfortable and easy to hold. My lid came broken however, after telling the seller this (and I spoke to them entirely in English), they sent a new one straight away which I should be receiving soon.

      Correct me if I'm wrong, but these tests were mainly on enamel coated pots.
      2 pots without coating were tested, specifically regarding Lodge, these were the findings.

      The HK$1,788 Lodge iron pot was found with chromium, iron, manganese and vanadium levels exceeding Council of Europe standards by 0.7 times to 54 times.
      The Lodge pot was found to have 2,200 micrograms per kilogram of iron, 54 times higher than the 40 micrograms per kilogram allowed by the European body.
      The manufacturer of Lodge products said iron was a key mineral needed for human beings, which explained why the Council of Europe fixed its standards on the principle of keeping it to a reasonable level. It also said manganese was among the least poisonous metals and had not seen any food-related reports of excessive intake.

      Hard to actually make sense of this without being a toxicology expert and I couldn't find the actual results tabulated anywhere in the article.
      Good link though, thanks.

      • I wouldn’t be concerned about extra iron, that is a feature of cast iron cooking.

        Typically you avoid high acid food in your cast iron cookware anyway to avoid destroying your seasoned cooking surface.

        High acid levels at 95c for 2 hours is not typical for a lodge cast iron pan during normal cooking.

        • Some people would see iron content as a bonus.

    Why not grab a carbon steel if you want a smooth surface? And why do you want a smooth surface to begin with?

  • Where did you get the shipping info?

  • Don’t forget you need to pay for surcharge when you pay using Austrian credit card for taobao. Than you also need to pay for your credit card company for transfer to Chinese dollar, I was total spent $350AUD ,Taobao charge me $9.52AUD than my ANZ credit card charge me $13.57AUD

    • I get charged in AUD from Taobao and pay exactly what I am quoted. It comes up in my bank as either "TAOBAO.COM AU" or "VISA TAOBAO.COM Melbourne"

      How many on Ozbargain are using Austrian credit cards?

      • Grüß dich mate.

        • Brb going to practice playing my doodelsac

  • When did tmall start shipping to Australia? I can cancel my pandabuy account?

    • A few months ago iirc. Though you could always get it shipped if you knew how.

    • Yeah, it started a few months ago. They have an English version of Taobao now.
