I really like this Faberware 6qt pot. The design is classic and sleek and looks great in my kitchen. My first meal I cooked in it was a great chili and it worked amazing. I browned the meat in the pot and added all of my ingredients and was perfect size. It cooked everything evenly which I loved. The one complaint I have about the pot is that the lid seems a little less thick and less high quality as the actual pot itself. It's definitely a little flimsier. I still does the job but I would prefer a lid made out of the same thick steel the pot is made out of. I look forward to adding more Faberware Classic Stainless pieces to my kitchen because I know the name and they last forever.
