The other reviewer is right about old Revere Ware; its great stuff that'll last forever. However, newer Revere Ware, like what's being advertised here, is total junk. I own an old 2qt saucepan and a brand new 4.5qt Dutch oven. The Dutch oven is flimsy and the lid doesn't fit well. If you want good Revere Ware make sure it's from the USA (not Indonesia, like the new stuff) and OLD. Try yard sales or ebay. The only thing to recommend new Revere ware is the 25 year warranty. That is the only way the old and new products are comparable.

I bought one of these recently. The bottom warped after the first couple of uses, making it useless on my glass top stove. I tried to contact Revere about it with no response.

I ordered this pan beacuse I liked the old RevereWare pan I have had and wanted another. I received this pan and could not believe how much lighter and of less quality it was as compared to the original RevereWare pan I have had for years. I looked on the botom of the new pan and it is made in China. IS IS A PIECE OF JUNK. I returned the pan. I would not recommend this pan to anyone.

I received the 3 Quart Saucepan as a gift and was eager to compare it to the one I have had for almost 20 years. I have read other reviews that complain that the pan is "light weight" and "made in China." I found this pan to be of the same weight as my old pan with the same rivet construction and copper-clad base. The copper bottom is stamped "Indonesia" unlike my old version which is stamped "Rome, NY." While I'm disappointed it is no longer manufactured in the United States, I will say that it still seems to be the same trusted Revere "recipe." Of course, if I discover any problems I will update this review.

Saucepan made in Indonesia was extremely lightweight and pan was distorted so that the lid did not fit securely. There was no way to realign the pan so the lid would fit. It was in the construction of the pan. As a long time user of Revere Ware, we were very disappointed in this product sent to us. We will never purchase another Revere Ware product. Once burned we will not go back to a second treatment.

The quality of this pot is complete junk. I made a mistake of throwing out the packaging and now I am stuck with this POS. The worst part about this pot is that the interior surface is very rough and covered with dangerous metal residue from poor manufacturing process.

I spent 35 minutes scrubbing it off AFTER the pot was put through a dishwasher. I am still not comfortable using this for food preparation. They should pull this terrible product off the market immediately -- it's simply irresponsible for this company to sell this crap to it's customers.

See attached picture -- the paper towel on the left shows how much metallic residue was on the pot AFTER it came from the dishwasher. The paper towel on the right is the amount of residue that was still there after I scrubbed the pot with a dish washing sponge for over 10 minutes!

We were quite surprised at how thin the metal is. The "Revereware" stamp on the copper bottom shows through very prominently from the inside of the pan (!). It weighs much less than our old Revereware sauce pan. Is the product just less durable now, or has "built-in self-destruct so you have to buy a new one sooner" policy crept in from the auto industry?
According to the info that came with the product, it was made in Indonesia.
We looked in several local stores but could not find Reverware at all, or could only find large sets, so we ordered it on-line here. Not worth it, it seems.
My wife says she won't buy Revereware anymore.

It wasn't an expensive pot, but it's a shadow of The RevereWare I've used before. The lid fits poorly, which does not enhance its use for steaming. IKEA's 365+ line is a much better value, but their website is wicked hard to use.

This sauce pan is not massively thick, nor does it sport a huge ergonomically designed space-age rubber handle or industrial-size rivets. It also lacks the engraved name of a celebrity television chef. Yet when I fill it with water and apply heat to the bottom, the water boils. The amazing phenomenon of heating also occurs when food is placed in the pan. The finish is shiny, and the lid fits well. The pan and its lid can go in the dishwasher. I ask no more.

This is a very light-weight pan with a lid that doesn't fit. I washed it just out of the box and left it to dry in the rack. Water spots lifted the copper plating from the bottom surface, exposing whatever the next layer of coating is. I then boiled water in it on my glass top range and the pan wobbled across the range top - the bottom surface isn't flat! Burned my hand on all of the steam escaping from under the lid. Revere should be ashamed of this product - manufactured in Indonesia.
