 "Broke on first use!" 2010-03-02
By K. H. (Land of Rainbows)
Used smallest pot in set, boiled water, got food out and left the water in pot while it cooled during super. Come back to clean and looked like someone tried to sit on it because the sides were cut at the top and it formed an oval. It still had the water in it, thus it was not someone sitting on it.

 "Good value for the price" 2010-01-20
By B. Mizes
I read some of the reviews and was a bit concerned, but tried it anyway. First, I would concur that these pots are lightweight and the metal is thin, but they are still fine for soups, stews, making beer or cheese etc. I wouldn't use them to make a roux or bechamel, but I didn't expect to use them for anything like that. For boiling primarily thin liquids, they are more than fine.



Second, I was concerned about the volume issues, since a number of buyers had said the reported volumes of the pots were considerably less than stated. I checked 2 of the 4 pots and they are spot on within a reasonable measurement. Perhaps this was a problem in the past that has now been corrected.



Third, others had reported leaks at the handles where they are riveted on. The two pots that I tested for volume did not leak at the handles.



So, overall, these are a very good value for the money. If you want very heavy duty pots that you can use to reduce cream, these are not for you. Then again, you shouldn't expect that at this price level. I plan to use mine to make cheese, and it will be perfect for heating 2 gallons of milk at a time in a double boiler arrangement. I'm sure we'll use them for soups as well.

Have two sets of these pots. Use them for all sorts of things. From a roof leak to catching antifreeze drained from a vehicle... Very useful.

This item was purchased for a Boy Scout Troop. We use them when camping. They stack well in our chuck boxes and were an excellent value.

 "Quality and Volumes are Suspect" 2009-07-11
By Randy A. Rockwell
Issue 1: The quality is poor. I expected poor quality from a four pot set for $40, so I was not displeased with the chipped stainless coating nor with the thin gauge steel.



Issue 2: I was displeased with the false advertising pertaining to the pots' volumes. Every pot is about 25% low in volume. The "20qt" pot is about 15qt. The "8qt" pot is 6qt, etc. Volume measurement is not always accurate, so here I will supply the linear measurements to calculate the volume:



The largest pot measures 9.5" high (interior) by 11.5" diameter (interior)



PI * (11.5 / 2)^2 * 9.5 = 960.8 cubic inches



960.8 cubic inches * 1 qt / 57.75 cubic inches = 16.63 quarts



That is the volume when filled to the brim. You could only boil about 15 quarts safely.



If all you need is four cheaply constructed nesting pots of volumes between 6 and 15 quarts, then this is the product for you. If you want better quality or the volumes actually stated on the packaging, find a different product.
