Schulte-Ufer Schmorpfanne XXStrong Romana i (32.00 cm) skillet XXStrong "Romana i" stainless steel Size: 28cm I had bought several pans with this XXStrong coating 2008 and 2009. At first true it's great to work with these pans. Nothing stuck and meat was roasting wonderfully crisp. After one year, the problem began with the coating. Despite the exclusive use of Teflon-tools and careful hand washing with textile dishcloths the pans on the ground were getting darker and unansehlicher, above all, might the "Fettnäpfen" in the bottom of the pan is no longer easy to clean. The coating looked so scratched after 4 years, as if I had always cleaned with a wire brush. I had to dispose of the pans in which the price is not fun, so no recommendation for people who can not buy such pans new every year.
