Has a lot of explanations along with the definitions.
I like how many additional features this dictionary provides. There are many explanations of how to use a word. I find this really helpful.It has lists of verbs and conjugations in the back of the book which I did not expect but I find very helpful too.

Has gender for nouns included
This is far better than most Italian-English dictionaries because it includes the gender of nouns, which is critical to know when translating. I’m surprised most dictionaries don’t include it because it is so important. So this is the only dictionary I use for Italian.
