cracked after approx 10 uses,
The product arrived on time, well packed and very pleased with my purchase. I have used the item approx 10-12 times and again pleased with the cooking results. Used in a domestic gas oven second shelf high at approx gas mark 6, average length of cooking time 45 mins to 1hr depending on meals. Left to cool on a diffuser rack/stand. But after 1 month the base has cracked in two places, not yet linked up, but the crack is right through the base. Cant seem to contact seller when on the Amazon site via email. I would like a replacement base, but as yet have no contact with the seller to advise this. Outcome to be advised

|Linda,
It is very difficult to lift the lid because of the shape and because it slips from the oven gloves. You must be very careful to angle the lid away from you because of the steam and lid. Do not overfill the base as the liquid seeps out making it even more difficult to get the lid off.

|Mason Tagine….No very heat resistant,
I love to cook using new ways, and was very happy to receive my Mason Tagine which looks good and can result
Now I am worried to use it again in case the entire base brakes with hot food inside….
in tasty meals…However, after successfully cooking my first chicken meal, it seems the Tagine cannot take heat higher than the lowest setting possible, as having turned the heat on the hob up to a ‘medium’ heat a crack developed in the base unit
If this is in fact the case, the product should come with clear warnings on the label to state ‘ONLY USE ON LOW HEAT LEVELS’ as I am sure anyone would consider this item to be completely heat proof considering its solely designed to cook food. I was very surprised and disappointed to find the hairline crack in the base unit when washing up, and could only imagine it was a result of turning the gas hob up to a medium heat before simmering! As I did not wash it up until it was completely cold……I did manage to purchase this item during a sale, otherwise I would have been VERY disappointed, although it seems I have still wasted money on this item. So I would suggest this item is used with extreme caution if you actually want it to last any period of time… Weep Weep
