Each piece from their line is individually created, coated, fired and inspected in order to bring you the finest quality cookware-to-tableware available. Their 8-Qt. Stockpot, made of enameled steel, is fitted with 2 loop handles for easier lifting and comes with a domed lid to lock in the flavors and juices as your soup or stock simmers. Compatible with all cooktops. Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Beautiful but not durable I purchased this pot for myself as a Christmas gift. I read and followed the directions for use and care, always hand-washed the pot, and I never dropped it or banged it into anything. With normal use and special care, the pot started to get chips in the enamel at the base after about three months. I used it maybe twice a week. After six months, the chips extended to the inside of the pot and it is now unusable. This is a very poorly-made product and ... Read More Rating: - Nice pot I've had this pot for a number of years and just bought one for my mom. It never claims to be the traditional Le Creuset cast iron, so don't expect that. Yes, sometimes food (particularly pasta for me) sticks to the bottom, but it is the same in my other porcelain covered steel pots. I have just become accustomed to stirring more often. I love this pot- it's great for lots of things-pasta, soups and stews, popcorn, etc. I would recommend it. Rating: - Beautiful pot - just don't cook with it! I own many Le Creuset pots (cast iron) and think that they are the best to cook with - even heat and long lasting. This is not of the same quality and should not bear the Le Creuset name. It is a cheap pot with obvious surface flaws, after ONE use the enamel chipped in three places - two inside and one outside. I wasn't exactly trying to put the pot through it's paces, just boiling water (at a medium heat per the instructions). The color is quite nice, and if you just want a pretty ... Read More Rating: - If the price seems to good to be true it probably is. I am very disappointed in this stock pot. I question that this is authentic Le Creuset cookware. There is no imprint or mark on the pot or lid itself (only on the knob on top of the lid). There was a sticker that said Le Creuset along with one that said MADE IN TAIWAN. It is nowhere near as heavyweight as I expected; the weight was that of any moderate price-range metal pot, no more. Beyond my general dissatisfaction with the quality, there is a sizable chip in the enamel on one handle, not ... Read More Rating: - easy to use, great results! I received this stockpot for Xmas and was a bit unsure as to how it would perform when compared to some other high-end cookware that I have. I'm happy to report that it helped me make a delicious pot of split-pea soup and was more than large enough even with a large ham bone smack dab in the middle of the pot! It's sturdy and easy to clean. Just be careful to use wooden or nylon utensils so as not to scratch the surface. If you buy this pot you will enjoy using it! see more
