Product Description

The built-in colander lid lets you strain and drain foods directly from the pan, eliminating the need for a separate colander. To strain, simply twist the lid in place to lock it securely and pour. Thanks to this feature, you'll enjoy having no colander to clean and no food accidentally pouring into the sink. To accommodate a variety of foods, the lid has large and small size holes.

I cook a lot of pasta, and I really like the convenience of a strainer lid.
Most folks say "use a colander", but I like to be able to put things in the sink while I am cooking.
Doesn't make much sense to stop and do the dishes, in the middle of preparation.

I had a crummy Chinese pot, that served its purpose, but the Farberware one is great.
No trouble at all to boil a pound and a half of spaghetti.

I have had two non stick pans in the past and get so tired of them peeling, then I won't use them. This pot is large, you could cook several packages of spaghetti or noodles at the same time with no danger of boil over. I am very happy with this pan and would recommend it to anyone. The locking lid works great.

Good stockpot, but takes too long to strain water. Quicker to use a regular strainer. Also, you can't close when
boiling water, so I felt it took longer to for water to boil.
