Aldi shoppers are known for their love of the chain’s in-house Crofton brand, especially when it comes to kitchenware. The Crofton line is a popular feature in Aldi’s “Aisle of Shame,” a section that sells out quickly each week due to its quality and affordability.
One of the highlights of Aldi’s rotating section of Aldi Finds is the kitchenware, which includes countertop appliances, storage containers, and serveware that often mimic premium, name-brand items from stores like Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma. The best part is that Aldi’s versions come at a fraction of the price, making them a steal for budget-conscious shoppers.
This week, Aldi has introduced a new duo that has shoppers excited. The Crofton 2-in-1 Cast Iron Deep Skillet is a near-perfect replica of the iconic Lodge cast iron set, but at a much lower price point. Priced at just $19, this set is $40 cheaper than the Lodge Combo Cooker, making it a great value for those looking to add cast iron cookware to their kitchen.
The Crofton set includes both a deep and shallow skillet, which can be used separately or together. When used together, the smaller skillet acts as a lid, creating a Dutch oven alternative that can be used for a variety of recipes, from skillet peach pie to baked beef stew.
Fans of Aldi’s cast iron pans have had positive experiences with the brand in the past. Many have praised the durability and versatility of the pans, with some users reporting that the finish improves over time with proper seasoning and use. While some have noted that the finish may not be as smooth as the Lodge counterpart initially, they have found that it improves with use.
If you’re interested in adding the Crofton 2-in-1 Cast Iron Deep Skillet to your kitchen collection, be sure to act fast. Aldi Finds are known to sell out quickly, so make sure to grab this set before it disappears from shelves. With its quality construction and affordable price tag, this Crofton set is sure to be a hit with Aldi shoppers looking for a great deal on cast iron cookware.
