Fine for a pasta pot but not really much else...
By Rebecca J. Siwicki
I am kicking myself that I decided to buy this Rachael Ray version over Analon's original design. I figured I'd save myself 30 bucks. This pan is really thin and heats pasta water rapidly because of it, but it is horrible for soups, legumes, etc. Because the walls/bottom of the pan are so thin, stuff sticks and scorches very easily. It's best for pasta or corn on the cob.I do understand that it being lightweight is a plus for a pasta pot, as it makes it easier to lift and pour...but I really was hoping it could do double duty like Analon's oval 5qt saute pan. Thankfully, though it tends to burn my soup, it does clean up easily!

Best pasta pot
By M. Mitchell
I originally bought the 10 piece set and loved it so much that I keep adding on. This is my latest addition and I love it just as much as the rest. The pot is oval so that you don't have to break up your long pasta noodles and it has a pouring spout on the side for easy draining. It's also super easy to clean.

I love this pot !
By Adele Fugel
I love this pot! I tell my husband that every time I cook something in it for him. It fits well on its burner when using another large pot on an adjacent burner. Its non-stick properties are excellent- it washes beautifully. I am not really a big fan of the color orange, so I would have liked it to come with plain black handles instead of the bright orange color. These rubberized handles, however, stay cool to the touch, so it is easy to handle. The weight of the pot is good- not too heavy to be difficult to lift when full, but not too light to feel flimsy or allow food to burn. It is a great pot for every day if you don't want to have to own too many pots, since you can cook pasta, soups, roasts, and stir frys in it. I may buy more to give as gifts to my son and daughter.
