This is a true work horse in the kitchen. This would have received five stars from me if it had come assembled correctly as it took me hours to figure out what was not correct. It is a bit expensive and now I saw one for 60.00 hard plastic cover but again in a regular house hold that_ ok to . I do like my kitchen to be all stainless steel so I decided to keep it. I only recommend this for chefs that know how this works. I am a chef so instantly I knew it was not correctly assembled, however took me a long time to figure it out . This is not for everyone.
