Inexpensive with the benefits of more expensive pots, (What's this?) Nice, tall sauce pan with more volume than most other sauce pans.
The thick bottom holds the heat extremely well, which is one of the major reasons I bought it. Super pricey pots and pans usually have 5-8 (or so?) layers of metal on the bottom which really helps to buffer from the stove, and helps cooks make less mistakes.
Great price for a great sauce pan, (What's this?) I was hesitant but glad I tried these out. It's not what I would pay commercial prices for, but at the price, it delivers solid. I like how quick the bottom can be cooled after having boiling water in it. That was the primary purpose, to be the salted water boiling pot for pasta or anything else that may be a little harsh on my commercial Calphon pots which show some finish wear from the last nearly 20 years.
If you don't dump salt in such that it rests on the bottom while it heats, there's not problem with salt "stains".
If I had to pick a fault, it would be the handle which on the larger sizes, like my 6 qt. could use the help of a helper handle when full and heavy. The handle is round so depending on what you have in it or how your moving it, it may try to spin in your hand. But I can't imagine anyone trying to one hand a large pit like this anyway. The shape of the pot rim makes it really easy to assist with the other hand.
I don't think you can beat the price for this quality. I'm looking to add another piece or 2 for specific needs.
Good pot, (What's this?) I bought this 2qt sauce pan to replace my old 'non-stick' one, whose inside has been ripped off. The pot has very solid stainless steel, and very heavy, and it's great for boiling something. It is a little smaller than my old 2qt pan though, but I can live with it.
One thing I don't like is that the handle and the lid are both made of steel, which will get hot when heated. I would have preferred plastic handles and glass lid if I had found some better price.
I'm also concerned about the handle. It looks OK now, but I don't know whether it will stand long. I hope I can use it for 5 years.
Very pleased, (What's this?) An excellent pan for the money - nice weight, even heat distribution, cleans up nicely. Will buy other sizes as I need them.
Good pot, but has a flaw, (What's this?) I got this 4.5 pot as a replacement for a "non-stick" pot that had it's coating wearing off (and I've read some bad things about these non-stick coatings), so my requirements for a new pot were that it had to be stainless steel, had to have a single handed capable handle (as many pots this size have the two-handed short handles) and it had to be inexpensive. This pot fit the bill. Upon arrival I hand washed it and noticed that the welds used to fasten the long handle to the pot could be felt as very tiny pimples on the inside of the pot.
great pot for popcorn, (What's this?) This 'sauce' pan works great for stovetop popcorn! I specifically searched for a pot for this purpose and am very happy with how this pot performs. Heats great, pops the corn in short order, and the lid stays on (so no oil splatters). If you get this pot, I think you'll like it too.
better than expected, (What's this?) As another review noted, this pan does popcorn nicely.
Unexpectedly, the bottom is fully clad in stainless steel,
where exposed aluminum could be expected,
as on old Farberware,
which leave marks on stove burners.
Awesome pot, (What's this?) This pot is great. It has a thick bottom and tight fitting lid. It's large enough even for whole spaghetti if you give it a minute to soften. I got it for making candies but haven't done that yet. I've used it for potatoes, rice and paste, it's just about perfect for all 3. The lid does get hot and the handle gets warm (but not quickly). The handle has 2 or 3 spot wields that are completely flush on the inside. This could be an issue but I'd think not for years. I plan on getting more of this brand. Possibly even converting all my pots and pans to Winware.
