Glad I'm not the only one who thought this. When I ran mine through the oven cleaning cycle it came out dull and rough, just like any old piece of CI. After reseasoning, it has a nice glossy finish, but thats not how it started out. Anything I've ever had that was porcelain enameled always had a hard shiny coating on it no matter what was done to it.
Another example is with my Q100 gas grill. I believe the newer ones have a different grate than mine. Mine is older and has a serious heavy duty solid cast iron grate on it. It takes two hands and some effort to lift it, and I love it. I almost bought a newer (and larger) Q grill last year on clearance, but I bailed on it because the grates have now been replaced with light weight porcelain enameled grates. They feel like cheap toys compared to the grate on my old one. Regardless of the weight......there is a very distinct difference between the finish (or lack there of) on the grates. Maybe the same might be true for the gourmet accessories? Beats me, as I don't know the answer. I only see what I have in front of me and cook with on a regular basis.
