Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Worth the Money
The rivets are definitely big, right there on the inside surface that is used, but it doesn't matter overall. The pot is very sturdy, evenly weighted, handles well, and heats well. The handles feel appropriate to the distribution of weight - their design makes sense and feels right (which is especially important when dealing with a pot this size). The pot is not too tall and skinny; the large surface area on the bottom of the pot helps food heat evenly. Because the pot handles and works so well, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent quality!
Always a top quality product. You can't go wrong with the Calphalon brand cookware.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great pan
Great pan, it was just want I wanted. I love the triply stainless-steel cookware.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - First month great, then it stains and burns easily, thick soups do not fare well
This pan is good for thin stocks but not other purposes. I was wowed at first. I followed manufacturer directions but apparently what ever gloss like coating they put on it wears off and then it starts burning and staining fairly easily. Still good, but not as good as I would have hoped for the price. I do a lot of browning and soups that simmer on low. Simmering beans and thick soups is not a good idea with this pan. Stocks and thin liquids do fine.





Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My New Favorite Pot
I bought two smaller Calphalon saucepans and loved them so much I couldn't wait to get this one. It replaces a non-stick stock pot and I couldn't be happier with it. It heats well and cooks evenly and is so pretty. I will eventually replace all my non-stick with Calphalon Tri-Ply. I know you could spend more money than this on cookware, but for me, the gumbo won't taste any better!
