MasterClass Stock Pot With Lid 11L, Induction-Safe, Stainless Steel, Silver

Exactly what I was hoping for: A large but not overly giant (11l) pan for making soup with a good solid base It has the diameter of a large sauce pan and about 2.5 times the depth, so works well on normal hobs. The base is plenty thick and sturdy. It pan isn't as thick and heavy as the commercial pans at work, but I wasn't expecting (nor needing) that. The heat distribution my fairly rubbish hob is good. The lid is fairly thin but does the job well and the handle doesn't heat up Word of warning: do not get the labels wet!: warm and peel the labels off BEFORE you wash it for first use. Lesson learnt! Overall a decent quality pan for the very good price and will absolutely stand up to everyday use at home . It's not heavy-duty commercial grade but then you'd pay 4x the price

great pot good size for large family soups and stews

As any self-respecting Italian will tell you, you should cook pasta in a lot of water and for that, you need a big pan. It's incredibly difficult to find this kind of pan in the UK. This kind of pan, which in Italy is standard, here is sold as a 'stock pot' pan and as such, there is a lot less choice and often the quality is poor. You can spend a lot of money on stainless steel saucepans, but this Master Class range is a good compromise. It's not top of the range stuff but not the worst quality, either. I bought two of these pans, in different sizes and I'm happy so far. The lid on one of the pans came with a slight dent, but it didn't bother me enough to send it back. The two handles are a necessity when you're draining a large volume of boiling water - I don't know how people in this country manage to cook with small saucepans with just one long handle (the horror). The handles and top of the lip are not heat proof (standard for this kind of pan) and you will need oven gloves or mitts to touch them. Overall, I'm happy with this range of saucepans - they're good value for money and perfect for cooking pasta.

Love these pans we are a hungry family of 5 and these feed us all no bother, I bought 2 and use them every day, if you buy one i guarantee you will come back and buy another

Great quality item I've not used it yet but love it's size .

Stockpot was received, as usual, within the specified time and in good condition. I purchased this saucepan/stockpot (due to its larger size) for occasional use only . Have you ever had company for dinner and cooked, say, spaghetti Bolognese and not had a pot big enough to cook the spaghetti in? So then you have to use 2 separate pots, strain 1, dish up, strain the other and discover that by the time you have done the 2nd lot, the 1st lot has gone cold on the plate? Grrrr! Me too! Lol! That is predominantly why I bought it and it has resolved the problem perfectly! I have got a larger one than this, but that was bought predominantly for making jam. Although, this would also be useful for jam making as it has high sides to prevent boiling over. I am absolutely delighted with this stock pot. It is very stylish in design and the quality extremely good, particularly considering the £28.77 I paid for it. It is not the heaviest gauge steel but then I wouldn't have expected it to have been. But I had to have a solid base pot due to the fact that I have a ceramic hob and this fits the bill perfectly. I have ceramic tiles in the kitchen so didn't want one with a glass lid in case I dropped it. This has a stainless steel lid like my existing set so is great. I find the stockpots more versatile as because they are all metal, they can be used on the hob or in the oven. I checked quite a few before deciding on this one and it would appear that if you intend to use this type of item in the oven, you should check their suitability as some can only be used up to certain temperatures even though they are classified as "stockpots". With regard to the handles getting hot, as they are riveted on and hollow (reducing the conduction of heat), they are not too bad at all. Just use your own common sense as you would when removing anything from a hob/oven. The knobs on the lids do get hot so, again, just use your own common sense and use an oven glove or tea towel. All in all a well earned 5 stars.

I’m so happy that I purchased this stock pot. I use it for all my soup stews, etc.. I even use it for canning. It’s that tall heavy duty steel metal recommend anybody buying it.

Fab pan, decent weight. Not sure why all negative comments about the labels as they peeled off like a dream. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Très pratique est de très bonne qualité! On est super content!

Lo compre sobre todo por la altura, es para una olla ferroviaria y para utilizar en la vitrocerámica, encantado

Schöner großer Topf, ziemlich gute Verarbeitung, Griffe haben keine komplette Hitze-Isolierung stört aber nicht. Fazit: gute Qualität auch für diesen Preis.

Funziona bene soprattutto a induzione

Ideal para familias grandes
