Product Reviews: Cuisinart Chef's Classic 12-Quart Stockpot with Cover |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Burned on food, be gone!! Comments: I ordered this pot after finally losing patience with my old stockpot when the chili I was cooking in it burned onto to bottom yet again. This new stockpot allows me to cook long-simmering items like chili and spaghetti sauce without standing over the pot constantly stirring. Having used it several times now, I can definitively endorse it. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: love it Comments: The prefect size, we cannot live with out. Super easy to clean and care for and it take up little room. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: One beautiful, functional and reasonably priced pot. Comments: I thought a 12 quart stockpot might be too large for the limited space in my condo, however I had had it with trying to fit ething into my 5.5 quart dutch oven and not being able to make larger tomato based recipes that called for a non-reactive pan. Cook's Illustrated rated this as highly endorseed when compared with the All-Clad that is about 5 times as expensive, so I took the plunge. It's gorgeous. Fits my stove and my cupboard perfectly and now I am ready to make that Hungarian Cabbage Roll recipe that I inherited!! I was able to braise a large bag of ready washed kale in1batch with room to spare. Sturdy construction, quick to heat water for spaghetti. I am still holding on to my 10 quart flimsy aluminum pan for some unknown reason, however expect it will head to the thrift store soon. Wish I had a rack to display this on - it's that impressive. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Solid, Well-Made Comments: Was exactly what I expected... a nice, big, well-made pot. There were no blemishes of any sort on the pot, and it works when you cook stuff with it. I am happy with my purchase. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: Stainless Steel Comments: This concerns rust and stainless steel. Please note that some stainless steels will rust if subjected to -- cleaned with -- regular steel materials like Brillo pads made of "steel wool" material. Other steels that are allowed to touch the surface of stainless pots may cause the same. Who knows? |
