The pots are very nice, well processed and fit visually also very good to my Silit Pot series from the seventies. Steamed works very well - I cook mainly goulash and sometimes rolls. The control dial for steam regulation I think for a lot of money's a little too shaky and little dibasic. As you would with the producer in China (?) Something better can be ordered. But the pots are sure make the next 40 years society.
