Finex Cast Iron

So, I've gone to a local cookwares store, which sells Finex cast iron cookware. My impression is that this particular cookware, as seen in the pictures below, is well design and made. The handle is made with spiral handle. The handle looks like stainless steel. The cooking surface is machine-smoothed. The side is a bit rough like Lodge cast iron. The design on the bottom looks really nice, like the ones you can on some antique Griswold. From what I read elsewhere, the angular edges are designed at "multi-angle" pours. The design makes sense. Overall, I like it. The handle feels nice in my hand. I also like the overall texture. The weight is heavy, but which cast iron that size isn't heavy anyways? Is worth $199.99 plus tax? No, but it certainly does make my kitchen look good. Honestly, I prefer to buy Lodge cast iron. Anyone can pick a Lodge at places like Target, Kroger, Meijer, Marshall, and Wal-Mart. Then you can spend rest of the money on food and start cooking.
The other thing I'd worry about how to clean the handle spring. Everyone tends to make a mess in the kitchen while cooking. With the grooves on the handle, I think keep the handle cleaned would be challenge.
No, I will not spend any money to buy this beauty queen, even if it's on sale. No, both Lodge and Finex do not endorse me to write this review article. I'm writing this article to raise awareness of alternatives of cast iron cookwares.
