Amazon.com Review
Cooks shopping for a midweight stainless-steel sauce pot at a mid-range price may well have found their match with this multi-functional pot from Cuisinart. The gleaming 6-quart pot is equipped to handle the most frequent cooking tasks such as simmering soups and boiling pasta. Like all of Cuisinart's Chef's Classic cookware, this pot is made of 18/10 stainless steel that has been polished to a brilliant mirror finish and that won't react to acidic foods. An inner core of aluminum ensures that foods heat quickly and evenly. The stainless-steel handles stay cool on the stovetop and the matching 18/10 mirror-polished stainless-steel lid has a dripless rim for easy pouring. All cookware in Cuisinart's Chef's Classic line is oven-safe up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit and is covered by a limited lifetime warranty.

Excellent multi-use pan July 14, 2008
Heavy metal and quality construction make this pan with tight fitting lid an excellent tool for all types of cooking; boiling, braising, roasting, frying.

A little thin July 5, 2008
I have the 12-quart pot from this same line and am very pleased with it. I needed something smaller, primarily to cook pasta, and figured this 6-quart pot would be just the ticket. It does that job okay, but in all honesty I'm a little disappointed with this one.

The 12-quart model is built like a tank. The steel in the sides of this 6-quart model is a bit on the thin side. Not exactly fragile, but not quite industrial strength either. I don't think this pot would last long in a commercial kitchen. At least the lid wouldn't fit tightly for very long.

The inside of the pot also stained on the very first use and the usual method of scrubbing and using vinegar have not been able to remove the stain. All that's ever been in the pot is water, salt, and pasta. I don't think any of these should leave permanent stains in stainless steel.

On the plus side, the heavy aluminum disc in the bottom does an excellent job of heat distribution. The riveted handles are also very sturdy, though they do conduct heat very well, so count on using oven mitts when dumping pasta.

Given the bargains I've gotten on other items in the Cuisinart Chef's Classic line, I guess I was expecting a bit better quality for the money. I'm not displeased, just not completely thrilled.

Very Pleased June 30, 2008
I had the older cheaper model that came in a set, but ruined it. I liked the set so much that I wanted to replace the piece which was unavailable. This piece is similar enough that the lid fits even more snuggly on other pieces in my old set which is exactly what I wanted it to do. The handles are nice and give a sturdy grip on the pot. Very pleased.

Lives up to it's claims May 14, 2008
Actually Ron's wife here. This cooking pot does it all, from spagetti to soup. It has nice even heating so there is no burnt food. It cleans up beautifully. The handy size is great for corn on the cob and spagetti pasta, especially if you don't have a large family to cook for any more. The lid is great, too. It designed perfectly so there's no leaking around the edges. And the price is right ... I would highly recommend this item.
