My understanding

The tall cover makes most of the steam to condense into liquid water and return to the food in the pan.  Therefore, if the heat is well controlled not allowing much of the steam to escape, energy is saved and food is more moisty.  For only these two benefits, I will not spend close to $200.  You could find many tagines at Amazon.com for less than $60.
