I put it away without using it, and stored it stacked, so there are some minor scratches. There are no scratches that would interfere with use. It's a very good item and is said to last a lifetime. IH compatible. How about it for waterless cooking, sukiyaki, etc.^_^ Size Dimensions: Inner diameter 25.8cm Bottom thickness: 2.30mm Capacity: 2.8ℓ
