Customer Review: This stock pot was purchased for making chili for a large party- it made a great batch of chili and looked good enough to sit on the stove to simmer. When browning the onions, I did burn the bottom of the pot, which made it difficult to clean completely and did leave a few marks at the bottom. I... more info
Customer Review: The rivets are definitely big, right there on the inside surface that is used, but it doesn't matter overall. The pot is very sturdy, evenly weighted, handles well, and heats well.

Customer Review: I love this pot. It's extremely versatile, especially if you get it with the pasta strainer. Dump whatever your cooking (potatoes, asparagus, pasta, etc) into the strainer, lower it into the pot and cook. When it's done, lift the strainer out, let it drain a bit and take your food out.
