3 out of 5 stars strange pot   October 30, 2008

I wanted a 5-6qt stainless steel pot with glass lid. This seemed to be perfect. Unfortunately, it's use is limited since you can only use low and slow heat. I think the capacity is too large for the small base. Be careful.....very to easy to burn food on the bottom. It's a great steamer with a separate insert.

Where has this pan been all my life? Easy to clean (dishwasher safe also) ..heats up quickly and evenly..lid is just the right weight and is glass so you can watch what you are cooking...Great size for just about anything. I have made everything from a potfull of jambalya to corn on the cob and this pan has made me look like I know what I am doing. br / br /Perfect gift at a great price. Buy this as a nice treat for yourself...you won't be disappointed. br /

And this pot is a great example. Size is perfect for my family. I love the glass lid so I can keep an eye on things without having to lift the lid. And to top it all off, it is really beautiful. It is also light weight. Which, as an aging wimp I find to be a plus. Although I think that those who equate quality with heaviness in cookware would reject this pot out of hand, but weight aside it seems to be very well made. I have already used it for soups and beans, but I wouldn't use it for something like making candy. Something which requires a fairly high heat but with a bottom thick enough to keep from scorching. But for the kind of cooking I do the pot is excellent and the price cannot be beat.

I own a lot of Cuisinart cookware, and am consistently pleased with the combination of quality and value. I bought this in lieu of another large, cast-iron Dutch oven, because I can't easily handle really heavy cookware. br / br /I use this for deep frying and making smaller batches of homemade soups, when I don't want to drag out my large stock pot. I'll try the stovetop popcorn idea suggested by another reviewer -- it's a strong and resilient pot that I could probably use for any number of other things. br / br /As noted, the high-shine finish is featured both inside and out, and as with all Cuisinart cookware, the glass lid fits nicely. I hand wash all my pots and pans, but this is listed as dishwasher safe, too.
