It is not Greek (how could it be, at this price), it is from India. It comes with marks from the processing machines which can be removed with a good wash/scrub. The base is stuck after the holes were opened, so it covers some of the bottom and the holes are a bit rough on the side where the cutter came out. The handles are thick and would be sturdy if their tips were not inadequate - one fell off empty on the first day and one came off. If the handle hadn't come off, I would say it is at least decent for its price, it is relatively large and has thick metal everywhere. I don't know if it catches rust at all with use (a typical problem with cheap stainless steel) because... it didn't have a chance to be used.
