Perfect for cooking for a lot of company Aug 22, 2010
Several times a month we cook for large family get togethers. This pot is big enough for us to only have to use one pot instead of 2 or 3. We love the Calphalon brand and this makes a perfect addition to our collection.

Just OK - Inside Coating Coming Off Aug 04, 2010
This was a great pot for a couple years but the inside coating on the bottom has recently begun to come off. I can only assume that it is slowing leaching into the food I cook. They have the stated retail price at $169 but that is just standard marketing mumbo jumbo to get you to believe that you are getting a great deal. The truth is for the $69 this pot costs on Amazon you could find a much better 12 qt. stock pot than the Calphalon. I would go for all stainless if you can and not worry about the iffy coating on the Calphlon. Just like when buying tools, when it comes to kitchen ware get the best. Buy fewer items, but spend a little more on each and you will be sooooooo much happier in the long run. The good stuff will have a life that spans multiple generations. Look at me it is three years after I first purchased this pot and I already have to get a new one. Pretty soon I am going to have spent twice as much as the best quality ones would have cost in the first place.

great pot, but too big for me Jul 13, 2010
i heard a lot about the calphalon commercial series and thought it would be the best quality for the money. it has lived up to the positive reputation and has been a great pot that i have used many times for soups and stews. the only problem for me is that this pot is too big. there isn't enough room between my over the range microwave and the top of this pot for me. if i were to go back i would buy a smaller size but i am happy with this pot.

This pot was bought to demo my resting wooden spoons, but my wife has a smaller one that she uses every week. [...]

I notice this did not get really good reviews. Apr 09, 2010
I got this with a Christmas gift certificate this past Christmas and I love mine. I have had no problems with it at all. I do not put it in the dishwasher though and do not put any of my other pots/pans in either...I have always washed them by hand like my mom taught me....I came from a big family and the dishwasher was reserved for plates, glasses and utensils. I usually soak any of my pans that might require a brillo pad. I haven't used a brillo in forever. I have not made tomato sauce (gravy) in mine yet, but have made a big pot of chilli and all was well. I do spray my pans that are not nonstick with cooking spray though before use. Maybe that is why nothing happened when I made the tomato based chilli. My other pots/pans are all-clad, but I WOULD buy this brand again. As a matter of fact, I am thinking of giving my baby sister a set for her birthday this fall as I think it is time she upgrade to a grown woman set..lol. I am also considering adding the everyday pan to my collection. Hope this helps you decide. Good luck!
