Round griddles?

Would like to find a round griddle for making omelettes (yes, pancakes, too). I've seen some units, higher priced than I remember. Saw an #8 and #9 Griswold, both high priced and both warped. In griddles, how many sizes did most companies make; most times I prefer Wagners? Are most griddles you see warped?

Tell me what you see in the market concerning round griddles. thanks
 
There are two styles of round griddles, vintage ones, anyway. Differences between brands were insignificant. The "old" style is just a very shallow skillet; the "new" style is the one where the rim raises the bottom slightly and the cooking surface is nearly flush with the top. The former would be fine for omelettes, but the "new" would prove difficult if not impossible to corral the eggs before they set. The "new" would be superior for pancakes, as it allows for (relatively) easier spatula access for flipping. I have a few "new" style griddles; none are warped.
 
If this works correctly, discussion on skillets, griddles and omelets.

I have 2 of the Griswold's. I inherited the small logo one. I saw the large logo one and couldn't resist, even though it was a bit pricey and needed cleaning in the E-tank. They are both (I hope I get this right) size number 109 and part number 202. The large logo one has two small pour spouts, a heat ring but no helper tab. (BB p38-39) The small logo one has a helper tab, no heat ring and no pour spouts. I don't know why they kept the same numbers. They are both about 10" dia on the cooking surface which makes them a bit larger than the current Lodge. They are fabulous for...

Reviewing the linked thread, I see that this thread is essentially a duplicate. Is there a reason I'm missing that your thread from last year needed repeating?
