 You get what you pay forJun 13, 2007
By Richard E.
This pot was a bit of a disappointment. I guess that the adage "You get what you pay for" is true. I picked this one because it was the cheapest I found and now I know why. It is made with thinner aluminum and is less quality. The pot was distorted out of shape from pressure on the carton during shipping. This was actually easily fixed by just squeezing the pot back into shape. A good quality stockpot of this size would never be that flimsy or easy to bend out of or into shape. I can't wait to fill it up with water and pick it up by the handles. It feels like it is likely to distort just from the weight of the water and pressure of the handles on the flimsy sides. I would recommend paying a little more and getting a thicker, more commercial quality pot.

Is there ever such a thing as too large?Dec 03, 2009
By N. Cody
This is an impressively large and sturdy pot that I'm sure will last for years of occasional use. The handles seem sturdy as does the basket and its lifting handle. The lid is a bit thin and if dropped could get warped easly, but it is aluminum so easy to bend back. I only have one complaint; I would have liked the basket to be a little shorter, that way I could put something in the bottom of the pot to leave a space to use it as a steamer. As it is, if I put even a 1" spacer in the bottom, then the lid doesn't sit tight.
I don't agree with the reviewer that said it was flimsy. I think that is just the feel of aluminum compared to the normal steel pots we are all used to. Even the higher end aluminum pots that cost twice as much still have the "flimsy feel". But I will say this isn't a professional grade pot, it you plan on using it every day or every weekend you may want to invest in something better. For me, I'll use it 3-4 times a year, and I have no doubt it will last me for years.

 Pretty big potMay 30, 2011
By SJ
When people see the pot, they always say, wow, that is a huge pot! Also, any reviewers that say this pot is flimsy or not sturdy enough is a lunatic. During crawfish boils, I tend to get a little wacky and I end up being fairly rough on the equipment. This pot is plenty solid. Also, in case anyone is wondering like I was before I bought the pot, it is plenty big enough for a nice, big, full sack of crawfish. I would wager that I could probably boil two sacks at once if I needed to. It is a great pot!
