Stock Pot with Stainless Steel Lid Multi Purpose Boiling Pot for Soups Stews & Brew (6 litres)

Purchased this quite some time ago and its going strong, Nice size and good quality, Use mine lots of for stock and also making Mash for wine, Thank u

Reading other reviews, I had very low expectations of this pan, but for the money decided it was worth a try. I was very pleasantly surprised at just how good the pan is. Yes, the metal is reasonably thin, so if you're expecting the quality of a pan costing 6-7 times more than this, then you will be disappointed. However, I was able to cook up a batch of curry for 25 people with no issues and no burning or scorching on the bottom of the pan and this was all on a powerful, outside catering style burner (i.e. very large burner - heat kept to medium or lower, however!). I was even pleasantly surprised that I had some limited success with this on an induction hob (but I think you'd need a thicker bottomed vessel for more success - so as per description, consider this not suitable for an induction hob). I wasn't sure if a 15L pot would be big enough for my needs, so to put this into perspective, I was able to cook approx 30 generous portions of curry and the total contents came to approx half way up the pan (it is 25.5 cm's high and 29cm's wide). I think, I would therefore cook for 40-50 people without issue (although the pan might start getting quite heavy at this point!) Ultimately, I wanted to economically mass cater at home, for friends and this pan came through with flying colours. I respected the pan by not exposing it to a very high heat and I was able to cook a thick sauced curry (Tikka Masala) from beginning to end, reasonably quickly, and by stirring regularly, I had no burning on the bottom and consequently it was very easy to wash up. (I've provided photo's of the inside and bottom of the pan, after 2-3 hours of cooking, on a medium heat on a very powerful catering burner, after it had been quickly and easily washed up.)

Good, cheap pot for stock, or in my case, beer brews. Not the thickest material, as others have commented, but not the piece of tin-foil that some other commenters have claimed, either. If you need to boil up a pot full of liquid, this pot is up to the task and very reasonably priced. Its lightness is an asset when it comes to washing it, believe me. :-) Edit: This pot does NOT hold 15L, it's capacity is about 10L. Took a batch of cocked up beer to see the light. Not sure about the pot other people have been sent, but mine holds 10L. I'd suggest you check yours if it's going to be an issue.

Very nice pot, exactly what it's needed for preparing my own curries or fishing particles

Quite thin steel thought it would be thicker and heavier

Works well on induction hob. Great size for family of 7. Easy to clean. Honestly does what I need which is a big pot for stews and soups.

this pot is great if all you want to do is put something cold inside. I washed mine - all fine, dried it, all fine, put it on the hob, turned the heat to medium, added some oil and garlic, and BANG! the base of the pot buckled up. It did not go down when cooled and washed and dried, it is now forever a convex pot. what this means for cooking is that all liquids now run to the edges, the middle of the pot never touches the heat anymore. Such a shame it is so poorly made. the whole pot is very thing, so lovely and lightweight, but the quality of the metal or the construction of the metal (pouring / tempering / chemical mix) or the fact it is so thin, has left it wholly unusable as a stock pot, which is what it is sold as. would have returned, but as it is "used" I cannot, but how would ihave known it was defective until I used it, the defect did not show until I used it. so - if you just want a big pot to mix paint in, or sterilise baby things in cold water in, fine, but if you actually want it cook with it - avoid this.

Good value

Qualität Katastrophe.... Rücksendung

Ok

Excellent rapport qualité prix, je l utilise sur feux de camp au bois, pas de soucis. Assez léger, tout inox, c'est ce que je cherchais.

Es manejable porque no pesa mucho. Para hacer un cocido para dos es mas que suficiente, y es para lo que la utilizamos mayormente. De vez en cuando cocemos algún centollo y es del tamaño ideal.

Magnifica compra. El precio es inmejorable y el producto cumple su función. Puedes hacer bastante caldo de carne con dos carcasas de pollo y bastante verdura. Cabe todo y no se sale el caldo.
