This pot is quite uncomfortable to use. Pouring is a bit awkward. Ended up buying a different pot and gave this one to a friend for her noodles. 🙂

A handsome, sturdy, and practical saucepan
I have been impressed by the quality of this saucepan, especially since it is a brand that was completely new to me. It’s made of heavy-gauge stainless steel with a thick bottom disk that should work very well on all ranges (including induction, as it shows strong magnetic attraction). It has a 1.5-liter capacity with measuring lines of 0.5L, 1.0L, and 1.5L clearly marked on the inside of the saucepan; the inner dimensions are 5.5″ in diameter with a 5″ depth; the base resting on the stove has a diameter of 5″, so you’ll want to use it on a smaller burner. It is finished beautifully inside and out. It has a simply-formed but effective spout that pours accurately without dripping. The saucepan and lid handles are attached securely with substantial rivets. Both handles are smoothly polished with no sharp edges so they’re comfortable to grasp and stay cool to the touch. The glass lid has a 1″ stainless steel flange extending downward from the rim, which is perforated on one side with 1/16″ straining holes and on the opposite side with 3/16″ straining holes. The lid isn’t vented, but the slight gap at the pour spout (as well as ample space between the flange of the lid and the body of the saucepan) should prevent the build-up of excess steam. However, since the lid isn’t a tight fit you’ll want to hold onto it with your free hand when you’re draining the saucepan through the lid’s straining holes. I think this kettle should last a long time, and I’m very pleased with its looks, design, build, and performance.

These simplified my cooking
I am single and like to cook, but tired of having to use so many pots and pans because just cooking for myself caused different quantities of mostly liquids in my favorite recipes. This in turn caused a wider variety of pot and pan sizes. I discovered induction cooking but quickly found that most of my pots and pans wouldn’t work with it, so I have slowly been replacing the stuff that doesn’t work with stainless steel.These pots are not only strong and sturdy, heat up very quickly, and are tall and deep, they also have measurements on the inside that you fill to without having to use measuring cups. The strainer lids let me cook pasta and strain them without having to use something else to strain out the water, broth, or whatever other I cooked the pasta in.I purchased 2 of these at the same time and have been very happy with them, especially since I don’t have nearly as many boil-over episodes as the shallower but bigger around pots I used to use. I can really recommend these to anyone since they are stainless steel and work on any type of stovetop but really shine (pun intended) when it comes to induction cooking.

Perfect as our teapot
We really like this little saucepan for what we needed. We use it to heat water for tea. For us it was perfect. It works on our induction range. It has volume markings inside to easily see how much water to use. We use water from our refrigerator filter spout for tea, because it is well filtered instead of our faucet water, and the little saucepan fits easily under the refrigerator spout. I had considered just getting a traditional range-top teapot, but it wouldn’t fit easily under the refrigerator spout.Before getting this saucepan, we used the microwave to heat the water for tea. It was taking about 3 1/2 minutes to heat our two mugs of water. Now with this saucepan, and using the awesomeness of induction heating, we get hot-easily boiling hot water in about 1 1/4 minutes. With our induction range, it heats so fast we have to stand there and watch it to keep from just over-heating the water.The saucepan is a good weight, has great finish, comfortable handle to use for pouring. We love it.

The lid is the key
Love the glass top with steam and straining option. Love the handle but must be careful because it does get HOT

Exactly what I needed
I like making bismuth crystals on my stovetop and needed a replacement saucepan. Specifically, I needed a saucepan that was shaped like a stock pot, but under 2 quarts, preferably 1.5 quarts. It also needed a strong handle and good heat distribution. My first choices cost a hundred bucks or more and haha no, that’s not going to happen for something I do on the stove for fun. I had balked at paying more than ten bucks for a pan I was going to essentially ruin, but after some false starts, I finally gave in and bought this one and I am so happy that I did.Ideally, a pan for melting bismuth needs to be thicker all around to facilitate slower cooling rates. This has a thick bottom that nicely distributes heat and keeps the center hot enough that crystals can grow. All I have to do to slow down cooling around the sides of the pan is wrap it with some insulation, which I do anyway. The nicely clad bottom means I don’t have to worry about it cooling faster than the top.Others had recommended a bain marie for this, but that would require using something like vice grips or pliers and I wasn’t comfortable with that. I like having a handle on the pan itself because it’s easier to pour and tilt that way. Normal saucepans, I have to tilt it back-to-front, pouring towards me (dangerous) or away from me (poor visibility). The shape of the handle on this pan is perfect because I can pour it just as if I was pouring a pitcher.The handle does have a downside, as it appears to be welded on rather than having rivets that go through the pan. For cooking, that’s probably fine, but I don’t quite trust the handle when I have 30 lbs of liquid metal to lift. However, the shape of the handle means it’s stronger than if it was the usual saucepan handle that sticks out. The handle is also still essential because it means I can use it to direct pouring with one hand while supporting the bottom with the other (holding a thousand and one hot pads between me and the pan). If the handle was riveted, I would have given it a full five stars. Though since we can’t do half stars, I had to pick a 4 instead of 4 1/2.I might wind up buying another one of these pans for cooking because I really like the way it works. I can already see how useful it will be for making sauces and smaller amounts of noodles. Especially when pouring is involved. I like making my own broth and this would be perfect for smaller batches when I’m not in the mood to make 20 quarts at a time.Oh, the listing says 1.5 qt, but it’s really 1.5 liters according to the markings inside, but that’s not really much of a difference. 1.5 liters is 1.585 quarts.(Note: The first picture is the pan before the metal melts. Second is one of the crystals I made.)

This was a considered purchase for me but it is a real keeper. Fantastic quality and perfect for milk, sauces and custard. I also boil eggs in mine to make it easier to drain the hot water off.

Super Topf um Suppen oder Nudeln zu machen, oder mal Bohnen mit Speck.Durch die unterschiedlich groÃen LÃ¶cher an zwei Seiten des Glasdeckeln lÃ¤sst sich auch gut das Wasser von den Nudeln abgieÃen und man braucht nicht extra ein Sieb. Toller Topf. Benutze ihn fast tÃ¤glich.
