Calphalon D812 Commercial Hard Anodized 12-Quart Stockpot with Lid

Great bargain for a great product. The older style of handle and lid doesn't make a difference in the lifetime-guaranteed, consitently solid performer. Food doesn't burn on, cooks evenly.

I have many high quality cookware items but i needed this size for a particular recipe and really didn't want to make another major investment. This is not the weight of other Calphalon that I have as it is made in China, but it does the job without any problems so far. I preheated the pot before adding ingredients to avoid sticking as suggested by other reviewers.

This item is good as advertised. It arrived and I put it to work right away. Cooks great and washes up easily. Only complaint I have is that I should have gone with a larger size. Cajun families and all!! For the price an exceptional deal!!!!!!

I WAS ABOUT TO PAY $150.00 FOR A POT TO COOK MY GUMBO IN...UNTIL I SAW A NOTICE IN THE LEFT SIDE OF MY PC SCREEN TELLING ME THAT I COULD GET THE SAME IDENTICAL POT FOR LESS THAN $60.00!! I CLICKED ON IT AND GOT IT!! LUV MY GUMBO POT!!!

Not only does this 12 quart stock pot look good, but it performs well. It keeps an even heat,nothing burns on the bottom and clean up is a breeze! All you need is a sponge with some dish detergent and you're done!
