wonderful pots

this pot set is wonderful!!! very heavy made the top insert is deeper than most and I am very happy about that. i have been using it mostly for canning purposes for now. thats a lot of hot water and jars with no problems with high heat. i've read reviews that said their pots were discolored, that is normal for stainless steel when it gets hot, this is not a sign of bad metal. only rust is bad metal. there's no sign of that. i wish i could afford a whole set of these pots!!

Best pasta pot ever.

I like everything about this fabulous stainless steel pasta/steamer pot. It is very well made, solid construction, pasta insert sits deeply into pot to accommodate plenty of water to cook more than a pound of pasta. Water does not boil up over sides of insert if not over filled, that’s a good thing. Steamer insert generous size and fits well.I returned 2 other tri ply stainless steel pasta pots or multi cook pots because pasta inserts sat too high in pots to accommodate a pound of pasta. They were also 4 times the price of this Cooks Standard Classic probably due to the others being fully tri ply. How often does this happen, best product for less money.I find this 12 qt pot to be completely functional, well constructed and attractive as well. Best pasta pot ever! Thank you.

Larger Then Expected

Probably my fault for not reading closer but this set was larger than expected. I will still use it but it is a little hard to store. Overall a nice set.

Outstanding cookware!

Only my 2nd time writing a review for cookware but Amazon deserves a writeup for this pot. Most of my cookware is by the biggest American brand of stainless steel cookware (& probably a tad overpriced as well) but I needed to replace the multipot from that brand since they haven't returned my pot that was sent in for warranty replacement due to sharp edges. Anyway, I also wanted something bigger as that pot made cooking pasta for 6 difficult. This 1 is surprisingly large but it's EXACTLY what I was looking for. As far as quality, it's got some weight to it & washing by hand can be tedious. IMHO, it compares favorably to that other name brand (AC) & I couldn't begin to imagine what that company would charge for a pot like this! It heats up quickly on my induction range & hasn't boiled over yet, unlike my smaller name brand pot. The lid that comes with it fits perfect & the handle on it stays cool, though it does stick up a lot higher than the name brand pot.

The Perfect Stockpot

We use this pot as a stockpot to make bone broth. We bought this particular one because the large strainer goes nearly to the bottom of the pot. It works perfectly for boiling a whole chicken with our vegetables and then, once the chicken is cooked, we de-bone and place the bones back in for several more hours to finish the broth.This is the perfect stockpot!
