Amazon.com Review
To roast is to surround food with dry heat. Covering a turkey or joint of meat steams or braises rather than roasts, and placing it into a pan without a rack causes the lower part to boil in cooking juices--that's why a rack is essential for proper roasting. This big one fits a 17- or 18-inch roasting pan and will ensure a holiday turkey or rib roast comes from the oven browned evenly, filling the kitchen with an irresistible aroma. It's nonstick so turkey skin shouldn't tear when the bird is lifted to a carving platter. If necessary, scour with a nonabrasive cleanser and a nylon or plastic scrubber, and hand wash with mild detergent to preserve the nonstick surface. --Fred Brack

 a little caution May 17, 2008

This rack worked well and cleaned easily. There is one drawback. I found out that the handle-to-handle width is 13.5 inches and the lid of the pan I bought at the same time from Amazon is 13.0 inches. Oops.

This is a very sturdy rack, well-made and just right to go into my new roasting pan. Also was received in record time. Thank you.
Great for cooking ribs in the oven July 14, 2007

I've been looking for the perfect roasting rack for some time now and this is it. It's heavy weight and the entirely covered in a smooth, non-stick coating. The lifting handles are fixed in place but quite generous, allowing room for an oven mitt on your hand. I really like that the "ribs" are thick but widely spaced. They still support your food well but fewer "ribs" are easier to clean when you're done, although it is dishwasher-safe. Definitely the quality you expect from Calphalon. This rack comes in 2 sizes (this is the larger one) and I bought both. Since the lifting handles are fixed (they don't fold down) be sure to measure the roasting pan you will be using to make sure this will fit. If the size works for you, I think you'll be happy with this reasonably priced, well-designed rack.
THE ROASTING RACK OF MY DREAMS January 12, 2007

MY ROASTING RACK ARRIVED TOO LATE FOR ME TO TRY OVER THE YEAR-END HOLIDAYS SO I HAVEN'T FOUND OCCASION TO USE IT YET. HOWEVER, I WAS DELIGHTED WITH IT'S DESIGN, IT'S STURDINESS, AND THE FACT THAT IT IS JUST THE RIGHT SIZE TO USE IN MY LARGE ENAMEL ROASTER. THE PRICE WAS A DELICIOUS SURPRISE! WHAT A BARGAIN!
Very nice, solid roasting rack. December 2, 2003

This rack is very nice and heavy-duty. I cooked an 18lb turkey on it with ease. The non-stick coating seems durable enough for the purpose and the rack is plenty large and heavy enough. The only reason I am giving it four instead of five stars is that the piece could have easily been made even sturdier by using a few more welds. There are a number of points on the rack where the metal rods simply touch one-another and are not welded. While the rack held my 18lb turkey with no problems, it seems to me that two or three more spot welds by the manufacturer would greatly increase the durability of the item. That being said- it is the sturdiest rack I have found so far.
