Fantastic pot. Great quality. We do a lot of soups, stews, chowders... This pot is not only large enough, and well built, but more important, it distributes the heat evenly. No hot spots where burning can occur. If you do a lot of cooking that would require a stock type pot, I highly recommend this one.

On the weekends, I often make large pots of soups and freeze portions in smaller containers for weeknight dinners. This stockpot is wonderful! The inside of the pot is enamel and while not non-stick, the ingredients do not stick to the bottom and burn. The soups cook evenly and I am able to easily maintain a simmer without having to constantly adjust the temperature on the burner. The stock pot is heavy enough to be sturdy and substantial without being too heavy to lift when full. A great addition to my cookware!
Pros: easy to clean and provides even heating

The size of this stock pot should enable me to make large amounts of soups, stews etc. for freezing. It will also be a good size to cook lobster and to make a stove top clam bake. I intend to get a lot of use from it.
