Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Calphalon Simply Calphalon Nonstick Aluminum 8-Quart Stockpot with Cover
Customer Review: my second good pot
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my second Calphalon product in two weeks. I compared the Commercial version with this Simply Calphalon. It seems like this one has 10 years of warranty while the Commercial brand has lifelong warranty (my life or the product's life ;)).
I had great experience with the first pot which was 4 qt, so I decided to get a bigger on this time for that twice a month cooking. The depth and the diameter of this pot is just perfect with the same uniform heating.
- handle gets warmer as compared to the big handle of 4 qt pot. But if you are cooking in this pot for 30 min or so, then you could use bare hand also otherwise you might need paper towel or other stuff to pick this up.
- If you keep the cover on longer for a period of time, it's handle will get hot.
- super easy to clean. just couple of wipes. On the first day of getting this pot, I cooked thrice in this pot and it was just amazing.
- I found the heat to be more uniform as compared to other brands.
- you cannot put this in the dishwasher because that will void the warranty.
I liked my first pot so much that I got this one, now I have to try the commercial line to compare that one too.
But I guess if this pot lasts for 10 years I'll be more than happy. Plus, with less usage, this should last much longer.
A great buy, although you might get it cheaper if you look longer since the price keeps changing on amazon quite frequently.
