This pot has made a nice addition to my ever growing All-Clad D5 cookwear set. The D series of cookwear from All-Clad is some of the best cookwear available on the planet. Period. This is 'heirloom' quality stuff that can be passed down from generation to generation. The fact that that the D series is made entirely in the USA is a welcome bonus. Pricey? Yes, and worth every penny. Even the packaging is robust and arrived entirely intact. Wayfair made buying this item easy and once this was back in stock, shipping was fast. Little doubt I will be keeping an eye out for the remaining few pieces of D5 that I won't have yet. Don't have any All-Clad D series cookwear? Get some.
