I would never have believed a pan could be so horrible until I received my order. The first one arrived slightly dented on the bottom with strong chemical smell. The replacement arrive dented in the identical spot, and this one also had a strong chemical odor. I washed it thoroughly and "seasoned" according to the directions. Put a pot of Honey Baked Ham soup on to cook-it smelled so badly of the strong chemical odor we threw the food out. What a dog! Can you say "Chinese drywall"...run!!!

i was replacing my 20 yr old large stock pot! i make a pot of rice to go into my home made dog food. my old pot started sticking everything!! this pot does the same thing! EVERYTHING sticks, but boiling water for pasta!! very unhappy!! you will only be happy with this pot if you want to just cook things like pasta!!! my soup stuck!! if i didn't know how to cook i would think it was me, but i have been cooking for 40 years! works just like an OLD POT you want to replace!!

but now I want one for myself. Once I saw it I was sorry I was giving it away. We've all had those stock pots that are paper thin, well . . . NOT this one this is quality stuff.

This is a great stock pot and easy to clean.

This is a must have for every kitchen. The pot is large enough to cook many things in. The non stick inside is a plus. I love that the pot was not filmsy and it is well made.
