I am always in the kitchen and always looking for better cookwear, this pot has exceeded my expectations, nothing sticks, it heats evenly, the weight is just right and I know it will be in my kitchen for years to come, the straining lid keeps me from having to pull out a bunch of other kitchen utensils so my counter can have more space for more goodies! I will be definitely looking into replacing my current pots and updating to Circulon! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
