Simmer that perfect lamb curry or boil up a party-size platter of pasta in this classic 12-quart Cuisinart stockpot. Made of professional quality 18/10 stainless steel that won't react with acidic foods, the pot features solid cast stainless-steel handles, a tight-fitting lid with drip-free rim, and a mirror finish that retains its brightness through dishwasher, freezer, broiler, and oven use up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit. The tapered rim of the pot allows easy pouring. For superior, even heating, an aluminum disk is encapsulated between two layers of stainless steel in the base. The stockpot measures 9 inches high and 11 inches in diameter; 14-1/2 inches including handles. Cuisinart covers the pot with a limited lifetime warranty.--Ann Bieri

| Comment: | I ordered this pot after finally losing patience with my old stockpot when the chili I was cooking in it burned onto to bottom yet again. This new stockpot allows me to cook long-simmering items like chili and spaghetti sauce without standing over the pot constantly stirring. Having used it several times now, I can definitively recommend it. |

| Summary: | One beautiful, functional and reasonably priced pot. |
| Comment: | I thought a 12 quart stockpot might be too large for the limited space in my condo, but I had had it with trying to fit everything into my 5.5 quart dutch oven and not being able to make larger tomato based recipes that called for a non-reactive pan. Cook's Illustrated rated this as highly recommended when compared with the All-Clad that is about 5 times as expensive, so I took the plunge. It's gorgeous. Fits my stove and my cupboard perfectly and now I'm ready to make that Hungarian Cabbage Roll recipe that I inherited! I was able to braise a large bag of ready washed kale in one batch with room to spare. Sturdy construction, fast to heat water for spaghetti. I'm still holding on to my 10 quart flimsy aluminum pan for some unknown reason, but expect it will head to the thrift store soon. Wish I had a rack to display this on - it's that impressive. |

| Summary: | Solid, Well-Made |
| Comment: | Was exactly what I expected... a nice, big, well-made pot. There were no blemishes of any sort on the pot, and it works when you cook stuff with it. I'm very happy with my purchase. |

| Summary: | Stainless Steel |
| Comment: | This concerns rust and stainless steel. Please note that some stainless steels will rust if subjected to -- cleaned with -- regular steel materials like Brillo pads made of "steel wool" material. Other steels that are allowed to touch the surface of stainless pots may cause the same. Who knows? |
