Amazon.com Review
Heating in this 6-1/2-quart pot is sure to satisfy the performance requirements of discerning cooks. The pot boasts triple-layer construction with a stainless-steel interior and exterior bonded over a full aluminum core that extends up the sides as well as through the bottom. Aluminum is an excellent heat conductor, providing consistent heat for simmering soup, chili, or pasta. The stainless-steel pot is safe in the oven and can withstand broiler temperatures as well as the use of metal utensils. However, the tempered-glass lid is oven-safe only to 450 degrees F. The soup pot measures approximately 11 by 15 by 7 inches. All Contemporary Stainless is dishwasher-safe for quick cleanup and covered by a lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Its beauty is more than skin deep,
By KayKay (Washington DC suburbs, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Stainless 6-1/2-Quart Soup Pot with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
A friend says the stainless contemporary pots belong in MOMA (Museum of Modern Art) and I agree: absolutely beautiful. On top of that, it performs wonderfully. Heat distribution and retention is just as good as the cast iron dutch oven I can no longer use on my glass-top range. This is a great size for soups and stews and a big "mess" of Southern-style green beans can simmer hour after hour with little moisture loss, thus no sticking. I intend to purchase more of this line.

5.0 out of 5 stars
No more stovetop wobbling,
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Stainless 6-1/2-Quart Soup Pot with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
I bought this pot to replace an old copper-bottomed stainless steel soup pot that wobbled violently every time I boiled water in it on our new ceramic stovetop. I knew from the instructions that came with the appliance that some of my cooking utensils needed to be replaced, but I couldn't find what I needed in local stores at a reasonable price. I chose this pot because: (1)it was exactly the size I wanted; (2) the weight of the pot seemed to be sufficient that it would work well on my new stovetop; (3) it was within budget, though at the upper end of it; and (4)it had some good reviews already. Now that I've used it (once)I can state that it performs beautifully on a ceramic surface, it is heavy enough but not too heavy, and it is good-looking, too!

An excellent water bath for flan,
This review is from: Calphalon Contemporary Stainless 6-1/2-Quart Soup Pot with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
This size, shape and depth made the souppot a better water bath for a flan in a casserole dish than shallower alternatives. I have also made beef stock from oxtail in this as it is large enough to accommodate larger pieces. I rub baking soda all over it to get all the tallow out of it.
