Title: Teflon on basin flakes off after 8 or 9 uses....
Review: This roaster works very well, and folds up to store in small spaces, but you have to watch out for two problems (one minor, one major). First, for a 5lb fryer, the drippings collected will overflow the basin, especially when you remove it from the oven. You need to place another pie pan under it to avoid sloshing. More importantly, after using mine eight or so times, the teflon is spontaneously flaking off the basin. (Please note I hand-washed the basin with hot water, soap, and a sponge, and made sure to never touch it with metal.)If you're not worried about making gravy with the drippings, this may not bother you. Me, I like making gravy, and it's a real concern.I'm going to get another upright roaster, but this time I'm getting a stand-alone frame I can place in a pie pan, and I'm avoiding teflon altogether. I think it's having trouble with long-term exposure to the ultra-hot drippings.
Is the review positive or negative?
