This basic saucepan has a lot of nice features. First I like the height of the saucepan. It's deep enough to cook the right amount of food plus it has a small enough radius that I can use it on the smaller eye on the stove. I'm usually cooking for one so this is the perfect size for me. I like that the lid is clear so you can monitor your food without letting the steam out. I also like that the lid has a built in strainer. This is perfect if you are cooking pasta or steaming vegetables. The saucepan also has a spout so that made draining water even easier. I washed it by hand and it cleans up really easy. I'm glad it has a non stick feature in case you are cooking something that burns easily. I definetly would like to try some of the larger pots in this brand and finish.
