This product is a little more expensive than some traditional brands (T ....) but the desk and use to understand why. Technology "stone coating" is really good, it does not stick, it is easy to clean, without adding fat. Suitable for all heat sources including induction, manual even states that we can put this necklace in the dishwasher. The handles are a plus, it's a handy handle, they are covered with thick and solid silicone but removable. If the silicone is removed, you can even put the jumper in the oven, which is convenient for some recipes. If the size is ideal, perfect for a small roast (or blanquette / Burgundy) and its accompanying vegetables. When I am called upon to replace other stoves or necklace, I will surely be aiming Schumann.
