A member of NordicWare's Restaurant cookware line, this 8-quart stockpot offers discerning home chefs the same top quality found in commercial kitchens. The six-gauge pressure-cast aluminum construction spreads heat quickly and uniformly without damaging hot spots (an annoying problem with inferior materials), and the dark interior absorbs heat for faster browning and shorter cooking times. With a quality nonstick finish, the pot also effortlessly releases food and cleans easily by hand or in the dishwasher. Another plus for demanding kitchens: The heavy-gauge metal resists dents and scratching, and a concave bottom eliminates warping--so go ahead and put it to work! Perfect for simmering soups and chili or steaming corn or crabs, the pot comes with a tight-fitting, stainless-steel lid that resists stains, odors, and corrosion, and features an arched, riveted loop handle. Two matching handles high on the pot's sides provide safe, balanced transporting. With a light gray exterior, this vessel has a sleek, modern style that looks handsome at the table or displayed on a hanging rack in the kitchen. The entire Restaurant line is NSF-certified for safety and comes with a 20-year limited warranty.
