Question: Is this 12 quart stockpot wider than it is tall?  An oblong rather than a pot one might use for pasta?  It's hard to tell online.
Document: You can't really go wrong with All-clad. This mammoth pot can handle stew for 20 people, but be aware that if used for pasta water, you might be waiting a while for the core to heat up and get to a boil.
Every complete kitchen should have a 12-quart stockpot and All-Clad is the way to go. Yes, All-Clad is expensive but you are paying for quality that should last forever. Just look for it on sale. I like the fact that it fits on my large gas burners without the flame coming up the sides (which you should never let happen). Be sure to read the directions about not using high heat on All-Clad and other high-end cookware.
This pot is well liked by Cooks Illustrated. We would love to get it someday. Our 12" All Clad frying pan is terrific, and no doubt this pot is too. Pricey, but worth it.However, DO NOT make our mistake and order this from the third party dealer listed here as CSN Stores.We ordered the 12 Quart All Clad on 12/13/2010 from CSN Stores (at the time, they had the best price).
Yes, the manufacturers can tell if a pan has been subjected to excessive heat. I love this stockpot for large quantities of soup, stews, and making chicken and turkey broth. It is easy to clean up inside and out.
I bought this stockpot to make soup for a group. I have used it for that and it was great. I have also used this same pot to sterilize some jars for canning. I am very happy with this stockpot. I will admit it is a bit on the heavy side but it is something I can work with.
On 12/23/10 we made a second inquiry about shipping, and was again promised by CSN it would ship on time. On 1/4/2011, still no pot, so we made a third inquiry and telephoned CSN and again, I was misled that the item would ship in 24 hours. On 1/9/2011 I called Amazon to file a claim.
In life you have to choose your battles. This has a few imitators but absolutely no peers.. So succumb to the temptation, it is worth absolutely every penny. Your great grandchildren will bless you every time they use it.
I've been waiting to make this purchase for quite a while. I am always thrilled when my newest piece of All-Clad arrives for me to get into my kitchen !! I now have about 10 pieces in my set. I use it all the time. It's a pleasure to use, and I'm proud to have it. It's a very worthy investment too. American made. Lasts forever. Excellent cooking results. Always.
What can I say? Built like a tank and heats up fast. Easy to clean. Just follow the tips for cooking with stainless and you'll be fine. And definitely buy some Barkeepers Friend to get any stains out. Works like magic.
On 1/10/2011, in apparent retaliation for my Amazon claim, CSN cancelled my order without explanation.
Answer: No.  This pot is tall.  Their 8 quart stockpot is wide.
