Does it come preseasoned?

I don't know for certain as I went ahead and seasoned it anyways. Ours is to be used primarily on an outdoor grill, so I liked the idea of seasoning it with bacon fat.

I didn't have any problems with sticking ..but saying that...I oiled it down good and preheated it on the grill as I do all my cast iron. We use it for stir fries and hibitchi grilling. I love mine although it is heavy. Just wish it was another couple of inches wider.

No, it doesn't. It isn't difficult to season. Just rub some oil, I use olive oil, and heat slowly on low. It is quite large, and does need some smoothing due to the casting process. As with a lot of casted cookware, it is good to take a sandpaper for metal and smooth it out more. You will like it much better.

No. You will have to season it. Also it is too big to fit in a standard oven.

No. This needs to be refrigerated, but is the best product I have found. There is only one place that ships refrigerated and it is pureformulas dot com. They also have the best prices.

Yes, it's preseasoned but there is no "made in" stamp on it. I no longer have the sleeve it came in. I visited the Norpro site and it didn't say either. I use mine almost everyday. Lodge makes one that is made in U.S.A.

Not that I am aware of. Almost all new cast iron comes this way now. You still need to oil each batter well with about a 1/4 t. of oil. It's just a head start on the seasoning process for cast iron now. You don't have to spend a month seasoning and curing your pan now before use. You still need to treat it as cast iron though. NO SOAP, and a light oiling before putting away. I love this pan. I use it at least a couple of times a month. Have never had an issue with my Ableskivers sticking in this pan, from the very first use.

Yes, it comes equipped. However, I'm gentle with stuff and mine broke after the first use.

Yes it does, but the peeling happens slightly over time and is not major, so you can do it the night before you go to work.

Every season I guess, I think the box has printed but I can't find. Sorry :(

It should be part of seasoning process. Please go to YouTube to watch some videos which will tell you the seasoning process.

No, it came set up and ready to play. Have had to do a little tinkering, but the set up when it arrives is good. Great guitar by the way for the rice, I love it.

No. The 18-135 which should be available soon is weather sealed. I would wait for that one to become available.

I'm not sure but I know it comes delivered on ice. I would call and ask them directly. http://www.innateresponse.com/contact-us-a/144.htm

I always season new cast iron cookware again before I use it, even if it says preseasoned. The shinier and blacker it looks, the better.Use only a very thin coating of oil or melted shortening. If you re-season it and it feels sticky, bake it longer and/or at a higher temperature.

I believe it's temporary. Check out some YouTube on the subject if there is any doubt

You really should season it first. Even if they say it's preseasoned, I think the surface benefits from seasoning by the user. Only the Lodge products really seem to be cooking ready.

No, this was coming just well oiled. Scrub the hell out of it with strong soap, and then season...

It does not come with a tube of paste but it does come with paste already on it ready to go.

I'm sorry, but I don't recall if it arrived Fresh or Frozen....HOWEVER, I DO recall that it was WONDERFUL!
