Good purchase for a second inner pot!
After reading reviews on this product I was a little hesitant to purchase. I shouldn't have worried so much! This does not feel cheap or thin to me. It really is a nice pot and the price point is right for me. It works well, doesn't have even a fraction of the sticking that the stainless does (which has its place and I use regularly).
I make a lot of sauces and it's very nice to not worry about the bottom of the pan getting too hot and burning. While I still watch it carefully I've not had any issues yet.
One Month Update Jan 1, 2018: This has become the only inner pot I use. It's just so much easier to clean after cooking when compared to the stainless version. I've not had any heat issues at all. I was concerned early on that there would be "hot spots" from the element due to the fact that the bottom of this pan isn't double or triple layer like the stainless. This hasn't been the case at all.
I've used my stainless inner pot to store things so that I can use the non-stick exclusively. I've used it about 20 times in the last month with NO signs of wear. I only use bamboo / wood / plastic utensils so I'm can't speak to its hardiness with metal utensils.
