HexClad 10 Quart Hybrid Stainless Steel Stock Pot with Glass Lid Stay Cool Handles, Dishwasher and Oven Safe, Works on Induction, Ceramic and Gas Cooktops

If you havent owned one, nows the time. HexClad products are just legit-and-a-half. Just unpacking it, youd know immediately that youre unpacking what a lot of chefs are calling, The Rolls Royce of cookware. The material is solid and you know it will last for a very, very long time. It has a nice weight to it and that tells you the legitimacy of this product. The lid also has a nice weight to it. Seamless design that impresses everyone who uses it. All you need to do before using it is read the directions on how to correctly season it so you can take advantage of the non-stick feature of the HexClad and to ensure that it will last for a very long time. This is a great find.

This pot seems to be very durable. It distributes heat evenly. I like that this pot has double handles for easy maneuvering and holding. I had no issues with food sticking (I did season it prior to my first use). The lid sits pretty well on the pot. It’s easy to clean. I hand wash all my pots and pans so I don’t know how it handles in the dishwasher. I have no issues so far.

Love this pot! I cannot wait to make all the things. So far it’s successfully made Maryland Crab soup. Love the size. Ingredients don’t stick, and everything cooks nice and evenly.

The photos online show this pot better than my phones camera can, and its exactly what is shown. The glass lid fits perfectly. the bottom of the pot is etched like the inside of the pot--which is useful for stainless steel because its going to change color over time down there. Its just the nature of the material. So the etching will help reduce that issue. After doing the initial wash and seasoning (with is detailed on an included care card--and is very simple and only a few minutes), the pot is ready to go. After use, I just scrape out any bits and throw it in the dishwasher. Simple as that. I dont have metal utensils any more, but I plan on picking up a metal spoon and spatula to use with this pan for searing roasts and stirring heavy stews where plasticware tends to bend rather than stir. Im really looking forward to a long relationship with this pot. If anything changes, Ill update this review.
