Do not use UITableViewCell's initializer, but make the cell load from your nib:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath 
{
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"EditCell";

    EditCell *cell = (EditCell*) [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil)
    {
        NSArray *nib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"YourNibNameHere" owner:self options:nil];
        cell = (EditCell *)[nib objectAtIndex:0];
    }
    cell.editRow.text = @"some text to test";
    return cell;
}

Of course, you need to specify the correct nib name.
