Few people can do a household without pots. Perhaps only strict adherents of restaurant food, who do not want to cook at home for various reasons, do not have this utensil. But modern popular culture has made chefs the stars of numerous TV shows: being able to "conjure" in the kitchen is now even fashionable and prestigious, and this requires a whole arsenal of dishes.
Passionate chefs and those who rarely stand at the stove should pay attention to the products of the Metrot brand from Serbia.

Distinctive characteristics
Russian housewives have come to love the bright, varied designs of Metrot pots. If we talk about the enameled products of this company, then their differences from competitors are as follows:
- the use of high-quality, innovative glass enamel (three-layer Ferro coating, developed in the Netherlands); each layer of enamel is fired at extreme temperatures, ensuring the heat resistance of the finished product, such a material makes the dishes durable, it does not change the taste of food, is resistant to food acids, does not cause allergies, and is easy to clean;
- the carbon steel used for the base of pots heats up quickly and evenly, creating ideal conditions for cooking and stewing products for a long time;
- all components are produced in Europe in accordance with strict environmental and hygienic standards, there are no harmful chemicals, products for sale on the Russian market have a document confirming compliance with the requirements of GOST;
- the bottom of Metrot pots is perfectly flat, thick (from 3 mm or more), specially blackened, which increases the heating rate, and its composition allows you to use pots even on a finicky induction hob and in general on all types of stoves; on the bottom there is a mark with a corporate logo;
- Metrot pots are dishwasher safe;
- the company produces many bright designs and prints for every taste: laconic monophonic models with floral and fruit motifs, traditional polka dots, Provence-style decor and many others; about 10 new decals are added to the assortment every year (this is the name of the technology of drawing on enamel);
A big plus is the ability to purchase a whole set (up to 7 items of different sizes and shapes) in one design.

How to choose the right one?
Choosing a common household item like a saucepan can be a daunting task. In order for the dishes to become a decoration of the kitchen, the cooking process is comfortable, and the resulting dishes are safe, it is necessary to take into account such factors as:
- all elements must be free of chips (if it is enamel), no scratches or abrasions;
- pay attention to the tight fit of the pan lid: it should be quite heavy and lie without gaps and curvature; the pan itself should also be perfectly flat, without dents;
- there are pots with welded handles and riveted handles; metal handles are strong and reliable, but will require the use of oven mitts, plus the fact that a pan with metal handles can be used in the oven; handles made of heat-resistant plastic (bakelite) are very convenient, do not heat up, do not slip, but there are restrictions on the use of dishes with bakelite elements in the oven, and on the stove you need to make sure that they do not fall into the open fire;
- the lid can also be either metal or glass with a bakelite handle - glass is a little more difficult to clean, since dirt can accumulate along the stainless steel rim; the glass lid is heavier, and due to the transparency of the glass, you can visually track the boiling and cooking process, although the glass can fog up; a hole is often placed on the glass lid for venting steam, however, sometimes this design does not justify itself: the lid still has to be opened a little;
- pay attention to the markings: on the packaging or on the dishes themselves there should be signs - for which stoves the product is suitable, is it permissible to wash it in the dishwasher and by what means, what maximum temperature loads it can withstand; certified products of well-known manufacturers are safe, so give preference to pots with the emblem of the International Quality System and Gosstandart of Russia.

Care advice
So that the enamel coating is not damaged and the pan does not lose its attractive appearance, you need to follow such simple operating rules as:
- wash without using a metal abrasive brush and aggressive products with acids;
- do not put a hot pan from the stove under cold water;
- if the food is burnt, pour cool water and salt or baking soda (one tablespoon per liter) into the cooled saucepan and let it sit for about 2 hours;
- do not heat empty dishes;
- the diameter of the hotplate must not exceed the diameter of the pan.
Protect the pan from knocks.

Reviews
Reviews about the quality are contradictory: most buyers are quite durable and wear-resistant, the dishes please them for many years, but there are also negative assessments. Sometimes consumers, who have not carefully examined the dishes when buying, leave a saucepan with a small unnoticed chip, dent, or scratch.
All these subtle defects can increase during operation and render the product unusable. Most often, such troubles happen with online orders: the packers and the negligence of the delivery services are to blame.
The prices of the brand are quite affordable, although buying a large set can hit the wallet. Metrot cookware rightfully remains one of the most popular, despite the presence of a huge number of competitors: pots from other European manufacturers, from China and from domestic brands.
