We call this pot "the witch's cauldron" because it is so easy to hurt yourself with it (the "ouch!" kind, not serious injury). The handles get super hot and you need to use pot holders to touch them. The bottom of the pot angles out slightly so it makes it awkward trying to hold pot holders while you drain pasta into a colander. I have definitely gotten steamed a number of times. Not a great pot design

LOVE everything ab out this pot.Perfect for so many things.I love it.

Great looking pot. Perfect size for our needs. We have all Cuisinart cooking pans.

Excellent product

I gave item as a gift. Some of the nonstick coating was not applied to area next to the bolt attaching the handle. The recipient loves the pan but would like to exchange the item for duplicate item without defect or have assurance that defect is not concerning. We worry that defect may increase likelihood of coating chipping or peeling over long term use.
