I really like cast iron and am a fan of Lodge. However, do not buy anything directly from Lodge unless it is from one of their outlet stores. The prices are outrageous. Anything Lodge makes can be bought from Walmart or other suppliers substantially cheaper than direct from Lodge. Strange, but true. If your local WM doesn't have it in stock, you can order it from WM website and have it shipped to a local store for free.
Yep.....I've done just that with a couple of pieces.
Like most manufacturers you can usually buy their products for damn near half what they want if you buy direct.
