Five stars for capacity, beauty, and cleanup. Three stars for the entire bottom portion of this piece that is unglazed, but especially for the raised ridge on the bottom. With food in it, this roaster is very heavy so sliding on the oven racks to remove from the oven is easier than just picking the dish up. This ridge makes it difficult to slide and has already been scratched by my oven racks. For some reason the way this pan is constructed, foil does not want to stay around the roaster.
