(Also check out the Industry 5 4-qt deep saute.) This pot cooks evenly and very well because of the quality construction, 5-ply with 2 layers of stainless steel and 3 layers of aluminum. The base of the pot stays flat, no matter how hot it gets, ensuring even cooking without hot spots. The handles stay cool while on the stove and exterior treatment keeps the pans looking like new.
