The roaster is a nice size and weight. Unfortunately, after a few uses, the teflon started coming off.

After only 8 months, the Teflon started to bubble off the pan and after contacting KitchenAid (who, to their credit, responded very quickly) I was told that the pan CANNOT be used on top of the stove, even just for making gravy. What kind of a roaster is THAT, I ask you??? They will replace the roaster but now I think of it as merely a lasagna pan with a rack. Or a roaster that can be used only if you scrape all the drippings out and into another pan before you make gravy.

The bottom line is, don't buy this roaster even though it looks great and works fine for a while.

I've had two of these. Despite a great design, the quality is unfortunately seriously flawed.

The coating on the first started to come off after a month of use, despite using appropriate utensils and only hand-washing. I replaced it, and the second was even worse. Since I don't really want Teflon in my food (or bloodstream), that was it. I'm back to All-Clad stainless steel and Calphalon hard-anodized roasters.

I am a big fan of KitchenAid products so I was surprised that after a few uses the Teflon bubbles and flaked off. KitchenAid Service did promptly send a new one but the handle was loose. I am on my third one in six months but for the cost this should be hassle free. I will give Kudos to their service for professionalism and prompt service but this roaster needs to be redesigned.

The only item in my life I took back to SAMS where I bought it and showed them the falking. they; took it back. This pan is the best designed roaster I have ever had but immediately began to flake and rust on the shell.

Kitchenaid always makes a great product and so it is with this roaster. It is so well made. It is quite sturdy and has a good weight behind it. You can easily load a heavy turkey or ham into roaster and do not have to worry about it bending or twisting. It will not warp under high temperatures in the oven either like some cheaper models will. And cleanup is easy.

Highly recommend.

After just 15 - 20 uses (coupled with hand washing and only plastic utensils), the non-stick coating began to bubble and flake off exposing bare metal. Once the bubbles appeared, the process accelerated until 50% of the pan interior bottom was exposed bare metal. Very annoying, and I would recommend that this product be avoided. Looks great new, until you use it.

I received it as a Christmas gift and was very careful hand washing it and using the correct tools due to the Teflon coating. Within a month the coasting started coming off; I blamed myself but could not figure out why. I happened to go to this page of reviews on Amazon looking for a replacement pan and discovered I am not alone with this problem. Do not waste your money on this product. I think that KitchenAid should pull the item; it only damages the company's reputation.

At Thanksgiving our daughter had one of these roaster pans. My wife helped her clean up after dinner and was so impressed how easy it was to clean and how convenient the rack was to take the roast from the pan. She needed to have a replacement for her old roaster pan before Christmas. She is very pleased with it.

I had been pleased with Kitchaid products in the past but this is not one of them. I purchased this to use for holidays. I never used anything abbrasive yet the coating peeled after about 3 uses. I am going to get a stainless one next time.
