Very high quality workmanship. We find the stove of our grandparents. We must cook some pancakes for good "tame" the griddle. But we made it very quickly. And then the pancakes were not at all the same taste with a conventional Teflon. Incomparable and so much better. We highly recommend this section even though the price may seem a little high. But considering the materials used, it is virtually indestructible, which is not the case of Teflon coatings.
