The normal ones instore/online are still £20, but in the 'offers' area they have some that are slightly different that are £7.50 (orange and cream)
Still with a 10 year warranty and looks coated too.(not bare cast iron) Only difference I can see is they have the extra carrying lump opposite the handle and not in a box like the £20 ones.

If you season it regularly rust isnt a problem.

As the comments they are only available in store - they look like the online ones that are £20 but have an extra carrying piece opposite the main handle. In my store they still had the £20 in all colours in the usual place. The cheaper ones were with all the current 'offers' like the baking tins and saucepans others have posted.

What size are they? Will they be big enough for 2 large steaks, for example?

They fit two normal steak shape 8oz's in. If you had one of those big thin round Gammon steaks then it would only do one. Most things it is fine for 2.

Those that have this pan, how are you cleaning it? Thanks for your replies!

Ive had one of these from Sainsbury's for several years use it most days and clean it lightly after each use then once every 3 months or so pop it in a bag with some oven pride and in the morning it is like new.

The 'non stick' coating isn't really that great. When its gone then there is rust to deal with. I'd avoid and spend the extra on a better one. Either that or buy the ikea one which is larger and replace each year / when its poor coating wears off. I guess the pan is pretty cheap and you get what you pay for. Apart from that cleaning this style of pan is a real pain. Have some heat any way since there is probably many people who could benefit from this deal. :smiley:

they aren't non stick, it looks 'coated' because its sand cast, they become non stick simply by using them.
to properly clean them every 3 - 6 months depending on how much its used, you turn them upside down and burn off any residues on the gas etc, then scrub with wire scourer, then put back on a high heat to get them smoking hot, leave to cool down slightly, fill with oil and reheat, this will properly re-season them after cleaning.
but for cleaning after each use, whilst its still hot, chuck it in the sink in hot water, and clean with a green scourer, then lightly rub with oil to prevent any rusting.

This (I'd imagine) is enamelled though, so not really seasonable.
Just need to be careful not to scratch it (no metal implements or abrasive cleaners).
Give it an overnight soak with soapy water and then a brush should get it clean.

Useless for anything other than asparagus... can't keep it seasoned easily either as you can't do a good scrape around the ridges (without also buying a dedicated ridged spatula).
These are for those who need grill marks on their steak but have no idea what they're doing.
