It was hard to assemble the lid. The hole and the screw were not perfect match. The top of the hole was partially hidden, and the hole itself was not straight, but under the angle. So, to fit screw in it was a struggle. I had to remove the red cushion in order to push the screw into that curved hole better. The handle for the pan was easier to attach, but it doesn't look strong connection. I'd prefer the factory do that. The feel of the handle is very unpleasant for the skin; not sure what kind of metal it's made of. I had to put some rubber coat on it. I just the pan today; didn't cook yet. I'll try tomorrow. If it will not satisfactory as well, I'll edit my revie and add my opinion here.
