Replaced a slightly larger roasting pan with vertical handles. Handles that drove me crazy when attempting to tent foil over it. It also was nonstick. Which some see as a selling point. After seeing a number of reviews for nonstick roasting complaining about flaking and my dislike of having to handle nonstick with kid gloves I decided on this one. It's cheaper elsewhere but it would have cost me more in terms of gas/shipping. Only concern is how well the hinge on the handles will last as they seem to be welded instead of riveted on. Overall it's construction is on the cheaper side of things but I don't foresee a problem with it's longevity (especially considering how often I use it).
