Cyrder Stainless Steel Pasta Pot, Hold Handle and Lid Locking, Pot with Strainer Lid, Stock Pot/Soup Pot, Durable and Non-Scratch, Easy Stain &Cleanup Stylish Cookware, Dishwasher Safe, Silver 5 Quart

The pot I used for pasta was old, aluminum and the bottom was a bit warped so it never sat level on the stove. This was fine back when I had a gas stove, but dealing with a glass-top electric is not so great. I also like to use an induction countertop cooker as well, so I wanted one that would work with that as well. This has some added features with the lid which makes it great for pasta, and other foods you would want to strain, although spaghetti can sometimes slip partially out when straining, overall it does a great job. On the electric it does wonderful, but the induction (and I think this might be more the induction cooker over the pan itself) it doesn't work as well for boiling water for pasta and takes quite a long time.It is stainless steel so stuff can stick to it (leaving the pasta in the pan without water and letting it dry) and is more annoying to get off, but this is true of any stainless steel pan/pot. The pan is sturdy and the lid makes it great for straining, or even when just cooking.

Boils water quickly. Drains well. But not lightweight.

Love it

What a great buy! Love the way it looks and it works great for pasta!

Great quality pot, easy to clean.
