Customer Reviews of T-Fal 12-quart Total-Nonstick Stock Pot, Black
Customer Rating: Summary: What a pot! Comment: For those of you who need a big pot for Chili, soups,and the like, this is the pot for you. Tired of sorry overflow type pots? This one is great for the job! I plan on buying another one. Works great for big family spaghetti dinners, and stews too. I highly recommend!!!!!! Customer Rating: Summary: The lid doesn't quite fit perfectly Comment: The overall performance of the stock pot is good, but not great. It has a tall body so it makes the boiling soup harder to spill out and create the mess on the stove top. The non-sticky part inside and out seems very sturdy and lasting, and that makes the cleaning part easy too because the grease and stuff can easily be washed off from the smooth surface. The only compliant I have to this product is that because of the tall body the pot has, the metal cylinder doesn't seem to hold its shape perfectly. The top opening seems to be distorted a little; therefore, the glass lid can't fit there perfectly. I often need to turn the lid slightly to the left and then to the right a couple of times in order to adjust the lid to fit into the pot opening. Customer Rating: Summary: Great pot so far! Comment: We bought this to replace an old Calphalon pot which crashed to our floor and bent out of shape. The old pot was wonderful, but quite heavy and you had to hand wash it. This one retains the nonstick feature (an essential when making split pea soup), yet is much lighter. The glass lid has a vent built into it, making overflows much less likely. Lastly, the whole thing can go into the dishwasher if you want, but is easy to wash by hand, too, especially since it is lighter weight than the old pot. You can maneuver it around. We still have another T-Fal piece that we bought over 20 years ago, and it's still going strong! That's what led us to buy this one. The one possible negative I could even think of is that it's very tall, making it a little difficult for us folks of shorter stature to ladle out the soup. It is a 12 quart pot, though, so you have to expect the volume to come from somewhere. Overall, a great pot! And we do a lot of cooking!!! More Reviews 12 Qt. Stock Pot Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Washer When shopping for a new washer, look for a front loading (horizontal-axis) machine. This machine may cost more to buy but uses about a third of the energy and less water than a top-loading machine. With a front loader, you'll also save more on clothes drying, because they remove more water from your clothes during the spin cycle. Look for the Energy Star label. Choosing Appliance -> Dishwasher Choose a dishwasher with sturdy compression springs in the door. Also look for tough, lightweight nylon or graphite racks with cushioned tips that protect glassware and cookware. Weimer recommends choosing a model with a rack design that provides the largest, most flexible interior space and is configured for your belongings, including odd-shaped pieces. T-Fal 12-quart Total-Nonstick Stock Pot, Black Kitchen tips -> Fresh herbs Fresh herbs added to soup may lose their flavor when cooked for a long period time. Add more herbs shortly before serving to boost the flavor |
