This pot is my new favorite. The picture on the left shows just how perfect it is for Sous Vide operation the 8 quart size makes it perfect for one bag operation, and the height is perfect for immersing the entire bag under the water. The bottom of the pot is extra thick and this helps in keeping the water at a constant temperature. The 8 quart size also is smaller than a large plastic tub and this saves water, and decreases the time needed for heating the water. The picture on the right shows the pot sitting on my range top, it sits just perfectly on the large burner and heats quickly with even temperature. I have made split pea soup that was excellent and with the even distribution of temperature the soup was done quickly with a minimum of sturig. The overall quality of the pot is excellent, however it requires extra care when first using it. The directions are included and are very easy to follow, They have also included a couple of cleaning packets that I haven't used yet because I clean the pot quickly after I have used it. The lid fits securely and is heavy and perfectly matches the pot . When you use the pot use a lower temperature than usual due to the excellent heat distribution, and remember to use a small amount of oil when searing meats. Overall this is a great pot for the money and should last years in my kitchen, my kids have told me I need to get two more so they can steal them for their own kitchens, I told then to buy it themselves it is not that expensive.

This stock pot is very well made and a good size for soups, stocks, pasta, etc. The handles are secure, the lid fits well and cleaning is very easy. Overall it does what it's meant to do and works very reliably for everyday cooking. The only slight drawback is that it's a little bit on the heaviest side but generally I would absolutely recommend this product because of its feels good quality.

Love this pot, didn't want a really large sized one as in a canning size, this one is perfect for soups, and mashed potatoes for a large dinner.
