Fake and original

Crockery TM "Maestro" is not a large manufacturer, known in the world, like many other brands, for example, Tefal or BergHOFF. Therefore, it is rather difficult to talk about fakes of this brand.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with the basic rules for choosing cookware, described in previous articles and the same for all brands.

Do not buy dishes in obscure places or on market counters, but in large chains or official stores. The latter is in Odessa, in the Riviera shopping and entertainment center.

When buying, pay attention to:

on the Maestro brand logo: a yellowish background and a dark stave, on which the company's slogan is written: "Feel Maestro at home";
for the absence of bumps, irregularities, scratches on the surface of the dishes;
is the handle fastener reliable enough (bad reviews specifically concerned the handles of the dishes);
the bottom and walls should be quite thick (> 5 mm), while the bottom should be thicker than the walls; this will allow the food to warm up in moderation.

When buying pans with non-stick coating, pay attention to the method of application: rolling or spraying.

It's easy to find a way:

"Roll-over" is used for cheap duralumin utensils. The coating is applied to a solid iron disc, from which the pan is then squeezed out. If you look closely at the inner surface, you can see that it is, as it were, “shaded”. Such dishes are unlikely to last long, but they are cheap;
"Spraying" is used for cast aluminum and steel products. The coating is applied to the finished body, therefore it does not deform in any way. The layer of non-stick coating is twice as thick as when applied by rolling. Such dishes are more expensive, but they will last you longer.
