Glad I got it! May 15, 2008

First, the only two negatives: 1) It does seem to scratch more easily than my Circulon Hard-Anodized Non-Stick Hi-Low System pots -- a casual encounter with a faucet will disclose a fine, thin streak of aluminum; 2) I used the pot two or three times before obtaining Calphalon's Dormond cleaner and wound up with black-on-black watermark type stains on the inside of the bottom and the inside of the lid. Subsequently, a half-dozen scrubbings with Dormond removed all the stains.

Now, the good part. I wanted a 12 qt stock pot and I like using this one. It seems to distribute heat well. The cover handle works well for me and never seems to get to warm for my bare hand. The side handles feel sturdy, well positioned, and enable me to heft the pot without strain. Even full, I feel I have good, adequate control when moving it about. The lid fits simply and well.

I favor it, now, over my clad, triple-ply 8 qt. stainless steel stockpot.

Lastly, I had occasion to telephone Calphalon customer service. My call was answered swiftly and the service was delivered pleasantly -- something increasingly rare these days.

We have purchased one of these pans some time ago on the Friday Sale pages. The price was great and it works like you would expect a product from Calphalon would work. We use it so much and like it so well, that we have purchased one of these pans for our daughter to celebrate her divorce.

I had a large stockpot, but I misplaced it. I found it after I bought the Calphalon Commercial Hard Anodized 12-Quart Stockpot. But I am very happy that I bought this stockpot even though I end up having two now. I have been using the new one since. It heats up fast and even. I also like its look. I will give away my old one and continue to enjoy my new stockpot.

Stuff burned into the bottom after first time use April 18, 2008

Thought I finally had the pertect pot to cook double batches of jelly. After the first time, jelly is burned into the bottom and won't come off. I will have to use a brillo pad to get it off, even after soaking the pot in water for 2 days. Not easy to clean.

Love my calphalon April 6, 2008

I purchased the calphalon commercial after purchasing the infused hard anodized cookware. I really enjoy cooking with the pot. If you follow the proper cooking tips from calphalon, nothing sticks. It cooks great and food cooks evenly. The only problem that I see is the top fits but not like the other calphalon cookware that I purchased. The reason may be because this piece was made in China and my other pieces were made in America. I am told that you can take any piece to the Bed Bath and Beyond strore and they will replace it for you.
