I always wanted to get a stainless steel pot, and I got one as a gift from my mother-in-law for early Christmas gift. I wasn't sure which size to get, but it turned out 3-qt is a perfect size for a 2 person household. I just made some Korean dish early today, and it turned out great! I worried about cooking Kimchi (Acidic and salty food) in the pot, but stainless steel is not reactive, so there was no problem. I would like to get other stainless steel products from Zwilling in the future. :)
