As someone who cooks a lot I am super impressed with this stockpot by Kitchen Aid! This one holds 8 quarts so perfect for soups in the winter, chili or really any other meal you could make that you need plenty of space! This is a pot I know I will have for years and years and it is made of the best quality (stainless steel). The glass lid fits perfectly and this pot has easily become one of my most used in my kitchen. I highly recommend this stockpot by Kitchen Aid!!
