This pot is amazing!!  It really is non-stick, and very easy to clean!  I've gently used metal utensils with it and no issue.  The pot feels very durable and well-made.  There is a texture all on the inside of the pot, including on the rivets (this is good because nothing sticks to the rivets either), which is a little weird at first, but I don't know if its for the non-stick or the durability with metal utensils or something else, but I have not had a single issue with food sticking or damage to this pot!  I highly recommend this, and look forward to upgrading the rest of my pots to this Circulon series.  I also don't want to forget to mention the lid handle has the same rubberized handle so it doesn't get hot which makes it easier to strain with, and the handle overall is easy and comfortable, and doesn't get slippery.
