Kitchen workhorse
This was a splurge for me, but I have no regrets. I bought it because I wanted to eliminate my collection of cheap, semi-adequate pans that were taking up too much space in my kitchen and it sounded like a pan-acea (sorry!). It has turned out to be a very good quality workhorse pot that I reach for all the time. Using the pot alone I've cooked many batches of spaghetti sauce, chili, curry, stew, soup, and jam. In addition to cooking pasta I find the deep insert useful for making stock, blanching vegetables before freezing, etc. The shallow insert is useful when I'm using the main pot for boiling root vegetables and I wish to add leafy vegetables to the meal. If I only had one kitchen pot, this is the one I'd choose. Pros: versatile; great quality; excellent heat distribution so I haven't burned anything; Cons: needs oven gloves to handle when hot; inserts have ridges that need attention to clean. Overall I'm very happy with this pot.
LOVE this little multipot!
I do a lot of steaming and wanted a steamer with a larger capacity, and also wanted a 5-6 quart stockpot, and WOW! This is just GREAT! I probably won't use the pasta insert much, but who knows - I just love this pot so much that I might have to start eating pasta. It is gorgeous looking, and very lightweight! Half the overall size of the big 12 quart multipots, but so much more functional for my needs.
Way more than I expected - the picture does not do justice
This set is so absolutely beautiful. I had no idea it would be so fabulous. Each and every piece are of the highest quality I've ever seen. And I know Le Creuset products cook food to precision and the meals come out better than you ever expect. I bought this set for a gift for my sister, and I'm so pleased and glad and proud that I did. She loves cooking, and I so know she will get many years of joy utilizing these fantastic pieces. Really, I was blown away. Thank you Le Creuset producing and offering such exquisitely fine products, and thank you Amazon for having it in your stock and shipping it so securely and promptly. I'm a VERY happy - thrilled even - very blessed customer. Thank you.
