I loved everything about this pot—capacity, sturdiness, nonstick, incredible usefulness—until the nonstick coating started flaking off. I was very surprised to notice the first mark in the costing, but assumed I’d managed to scratch it somehow (or more likely my husband used the biggest metal utensil I own to dish up huge servings for guests LOL—but he admits nothing). It’s been about 3 months since I saw the first little mark, and now the entire inside bottom of the pot is flaking. I’m super disappointed because this was my absolute favorite pot.
