I know they're supposed to last forever, but I'm on my second one. The first was good for awhile but I don't think I ever seasoned it properly, and it always seemed a little sketchy... my mom gave it to me after winning it in some kind of raffle at a casino in Detroit.
It had no brand name on it, just a plain black skillet... probably made in China. It eventually got all these unending black flakes and turned to shit, so I got a pre-seasoned Lodge... I remember being surprised it was only like 20 bucks.
I don't find them easier than teflon or whatever, but they do look cooler and cook things better. Can definitely tell the difference in texture and flavor with the cast iron.
