For the price it's no bargain (even at half that price it's no bargain, 'cause
it's a piece of Crap... got them horrid loving cup ear handles sticking out
(the only thing All-Crap about it are those fercocktah handles), and at only
12" X 15" it's pretty puny for roasting a turkey... and those large diameter
corners are kinda stupid too, simply makes for so much less volume. Here's a
better picture of that design abortion:

A far, far better choice at less than half the price, and more than twice the
pan (20" X 13") is the Farberware roasting pan... long time proven design makes
for an extremely ridgid pan, no racking/warping means no accidents.
