In principle, this roaster is really very heavy high-quality quality. The cast iron is (so far) no corrosion (rust). There is only one small minus: The hold button the lid is badly shaped and too smooth. If you want the (hot) cover lift with a potholder, you have to really watch out that one of the cover does not slip. What a pity. In a roasting pan in this price range could have been quiet for 5 EUR invest in a reasonable bracket.
