IMUSA USA L300-40314 Stainless Steel Stock Pot with Lid 8-Quart, Silver

I have seen a lot of complaints about this pot like the handles falling off or it leaking liquid where the handles are attached. I have not had these issues. I use it for cheese making and it has worked perfectly for me so far

I began canning for the first time this year and didn't want to invest in a lot of expensive equipment in case I never canned again. This large stock pot was perfect for the job. I used it on top of a ceramic top electric stove. I put a round cooling/roasting rack on the bottom of the pot to rest the pint jars on. The material it is made of is not thick and heavy. This makes it easier to lift when full of water but may effect its durability. It is large, so must be used on the larger burners.It has not scratched my stove-top. Also, make sure that your sink is big enough so that you can fill it and clean it. I have also used it for making stock and intend to use it for dying material.

La olla llegó dos días antes de lo esperado, buena olla aunque con algunos rallones en la parte interna y sin tapadera, pero no importa, ya que la compre en oferta con un 40% de descuento y de antemano yo sabía que tenía tales rallones y que no tenía tapadera, excelente relación calidad precio, la recomiendo ampliamente.

For the price, this was a very good pot to get. I made my first pot of soup today and it cooked great. I love that I had the perfect sized pot I wanted for my soups now. And, I like that the lid isn't thick or heavy- it's thinner but still does the job of holding the heat well. And, for a little over twenty dollars this was a great find- I didn't think to find a pot this big in this price range. The pot is also light-weight, easy to wash- anything heavier would have really been too much for me to clean up- when washing. Thank you for a large pot at a very low price! As long as it cooks the soups I like- which it does, you can't beat what you get. All the other pots this big I looked at were much more expensive and had I not found the IMUSA manufactured 12-Quart I might not have been able to afford a soup pot at all this month. And, with it getting colder and being the month of my birthday, I was really able to add one to my purchase. Thank you- pot IRL looks a presented in the photo on Amazon

I ordered this for my daughter and son-in-law for Christmas. The pot is excellent, but came with the wrong size lid. I would make sure your lid fits it right away when you get it.
