Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This pot is PERFECT for making homemade pasta for a moderate to large sized crowd. The heavy base and large capacity means when you plunge in a plate of still-moist homemade spagetti, the water keeps boiling, or returns to a full boil within a minute or so. Ours has stayed beautiful in our active kitchen for over a year despite constant use and frequent washing. This is my favorite large kettle. I can think of NOTHING wrong with this pot. Update: 4/2005 (a year later) - This is STILL the perfect pot for cooking large batches of pasta and two-chicken soups. Update 5/2008 (4 years later) - Still looks as good as new, and works just as well. We've given them as gifts, and they are always appreciated! Update 9/2016 (12 years later) - Still looks shiny and new. Just finished doing 14 pounds of apple sauce. Not a bit of scorching or burning. Holds its heat and provides even cooking across the whole bottom, even on a gas "power burner" on our stove. Definitely one of my better purchases!
