Is this King Kooker CIFP12S Pre-seasoned Cast Iron Skillet, 12-Inch machined on the inside or is it just the unfinished cast iron?

It IS NOT machined. I just received mine today. Although the bottom is much smoother than Lodge, the bottom is textured rather than pebbly. I hope that with a few years use it can be used to fry eggs and will become smooth. Meanwhile there are NO manufacturers in the U.S. that machine it's cast iron. Our only resource is estate sales and yard sales. Good luck finding the 'Prize".

There is a 5" and 9" ring. I did use a 12" cast iron pan once,,,,the unit overheated and shut down. Now all I can do is boild water with the unit. I would recommend a commercial unit if you are going to use cast iron or do heavy duty cooking.

The heating element is approximately 8 inches and I believe it would be perfect for your 12 in. cast iron frying pan. I used the Induction Burner for my 8 Quart Pressure Cooker, and my Pasta Pot and it was perfect! It heats much faster than my Natural Gas Thermador stovetop! You will love this appliance.

The 12.6 refers to the top of the pan. The cooking surface is approximately 12"

You're welcome. AND a little more info, it is as deep as my 12" skillet. I actually choose this over my regular skillet if it is not already being used for something else at the same time. It is my favorite.

it is cast iron. for stove top and cooking works fine once it has been seasoned. I use it to cook rice on the wood stove.

I know my skillets are. I just looked at my press. It only says Lodge. But I think it is.

i find it stickier than older cast iron i had. but it is pre-seasoned. I just seem to need a lot more oil on it than I expected.

The top is 10" bottom is 7-1/4". If we only had one cast skillet this would be the one. The quality is tops and no we don't work for lodge... I can't say enough about it. Enjoy

I do not know. Bought it about a year ago. There is no indication on the skillet itself. Purchased at Kohls.

Yes mini server is 100% cast iron. Lodge has been in business for over one hundred years and they have quality products. They set the standard when it comes to cast iron cookware. Hope this helps!!

It is stainless steel, It doesn't need seasoned. That is just for those old heavy the cast iron ones.

The cast iron pan that goes with this lid is 10SK. And yes, if your top measurement is 12", it is the correct lid! Enjoy!

About 3-1/2 in. They advertise it as a 12" pan, but it is 12" only at the top, so if you have an induction ceremonies Koop with a 12" burner, this is not for you. It is like a wok in some ways since the sides slope in.

Follow up to my response seconds ago......the skillets in my set were 8 and 10 inch.....but feel certain this one is equally as great!

It is cast iron with an enameled finish that makes it act more like a well seasoned cast iron or a non stick pan. It is textured like traditional cast iron and behaves very much like cast iron but cleans easier.

It is pre-seasoned but doesn't have a Teflon- like costing. If you don't take care you will need to season it all over.
