I love roasted lamb and suckling pig, but could never do them right with the cheap roasters that cannot handle the size and weight. Eventually, I cracked and decided to go up market. Way up. This item is expensive, but it does the job. The quality is top-notch, and I am very pleased with the design. Clearly, a lot of thinking has gone into it, and it also seems to have also benefited from the feedback from professionals. The hardware included to hold the meat in place, for instance, is clever, sturdy, and something that I have never seen in cheaper roasters. I am glad I bought this, and I do recommend it.
