The pot is just great, the most important thing for us: the ground is absolutely flat, it looks good, the handles do not get hot; if one pops up, then hold the lid firmly to the casting, ie you do not need potholders etc. more and can jiffy strain through the screen holes in the lid. We place the pot in everyday life simply on the table, because he looks after cooking not as unsightly as the vast majority of stainless steel pots. We can recommend the product, only four points we give because he saw us in the price-performance ratio but appears too expensive.
