Name sounds lofty at first...

It's a mere 5 by 5 inch square and three quarters of an inch deep. Why bother?, you ask. Well, the more uses for this petite pre-seasoned cast iron pan that we find, the more we get with the name. A stack of four takes up very little space on a shelf or when on the job. Extra handy for searing meat or fish on the stove and finishing in the oven. Individual pans work for satisfying "rare" and "well done" differences. The energy-frugal can take advantage of a heated oven by sliding a skillet loaded up with olive oil and garlic on to an unused space on the oven shelf while cooking something else. In a small kitchen a small pan makes a complicated dish do-able. Grab it when it's time to toast nuts, seeds and spices. Their cast iron chicness goes from oven to table for tapas and appetizers. Use two Lodge Wonder Skillets for grilling sandwiches. Place the second pan as a lid with a quarter turn. For thin sandwiches it's a mini cast iron oven. For thick sandwiches it's a press. Next? Baking low-profile corn bread! Target.com sells the Lodge Wonder Skillet at the best price, but there is no free shipping deal at this time. Amazon.com prices these higher but they qualify for free standard shipping for orders over $25. Yep, this little cutie works.
