Beautiful Medium Sized Roaster
This is a gorgeous roaster with its highly polished finish, solid handles, high dome and two little open/close vents on top. I haven't used it yet (UPDATE: Dec 2010; we've used it several times now and still love it) but I think it could handle the stovetop as well as the oven, although I wouldn't set the burner much above medium since it's got an indented pattern on the bottom and it's not super thick.
Three generations of women in my family have used Revere Ware stainless steel pots and pans, so if anyone is familiar with them, I can best compare the thickness of this Fox Run stainless roaster by saying it's not quite as thick, especially on the bottom since it lacks the copper layer, but it's far from flimsy.
Size wise, it can take a good sized turkey or two chickens. Its inside height with the lid on is 7". Without the lid, the inside measures 4 5/8" high. The rack, if you choose to use it, is very low, so you've still got more than 6.5" of vertical...
Poor quality
The handles on this pan are so poorly attached that one broke off during shipping and you can barely tell where it was once affixed to the side (no rivets, nothing holding the handle solidly in place). The whole thing is very lightweight and flimsy feeling. The packaging looks unprofessional, with a pixelated image on a thin cardboard box- like a cheap import or knockoff. I am returning it (obviously, since it was broken).
LOVE IT
I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A ROASTER PAN THIS SIZE FOR AWHILE NOW. I WAS OVER JOYED TO SEE THIS ONE ON LINE.
