KitchenAid 71021 Stainless Steel Casserole with Lid, 4 Quart - Brushed Stainless Steel

This. Is. My. Favorite. Pot. Works on the stove for making sauces or boiling water for tortellini, has a high quality lid for letting foods rest after cooking, heats evenly on my induction stove. But the reason it is my favorite is because it looks so nice on the table as a serving dish too. The handles don't get overly hot, even when moving direct from stove to table (a trivet or something underneath is needed though.) There is another version with silicon treated handles, but it doesn't look as good for use on the table. This piece is just splendid for boiling and draining ravioli, adding sauce, and bringing straight to the table!

Perfect size, weight, and durability! PERFECT!!

Love this pot! Perfect for soups, chilis and so much more. The size is perfect, it heats up quickly and is super easy to clean.

This pot only gets four stars because when it arrived brand new, in an undamaged box the rim on the inside had two dents in it. I considered returning it for a replacement, to keep the same item. but the two dents did not affect the seal of the lid. It still sits perfectly so I didn't bother. Love this pot, it's handsome and fits in well with my other appliances. I use it when I'm making a batch of soup, stew or spaghetti sauce. It's the perfect size for serving 4 to six people. If this is the size you are looking for, you will love this pot!

This 4 QT. pot is exactly what I was looking for. So far it has been durable - stainless steel - so it cooks evenly and heats up quick. My only "issue" with it, is I have noticed it wants to stain on the bottom with certain foods, but that's not a huge deal to me. I'm just careful to wash it immediately after use (or soak in hot soapy water). Not bad enough to dock it a star in my review anyway.

Just the perfect size and weight for my "aging in place" kitchen. I gave my heavy porcelain Dutch oven to my granddaughter and enjoy the even cooking and easy clean up with this much lighter pan.

This is the best all purpose pot to own. The bottom stays flat and does not warp. It is not non-stick but cleans very easily when things get stuck on, by just putting it back on the hot burner with about 1/2 cup of water and scraping it with the spatula again. It cooks extremely well. Good heat distribution. You do need to use oil or butter, but a little seems to go a long way. I put it in the dishwasher regularly. If you only had to own one pot, this would be the one. Good for cooking practically anything. You need a mitt to handle the handles but you can put this in the oven with no problem. BEST pan I have ever owned and at 60+, I have owned a lot. Beats out anodized, cast iron, non-stick of all kinds. Easy to care for and very handy. LOVE IT.

The pot itself is beautiful, well designed but it got stained in the inside and outside with no reason, it got some dark stains, I used it very carefully and at the first week it got awfully stained, I used it in a medium temperature not that high or overheated to get that dark yellow stain, its not oil, thats a stain, thats a shame because Kitchenaid its really a nice brand with great quality but this product I dont know why got this stains. It seems like it has a heat distribution issue because when I put it on the stove it gets darked on that stained side and it starts to smoking, I have cheaper brands and they are intact but this one seems like very worn out and its a brand new one. I like it and i would have given a 5 but the stain is dissapointing. The pot is beatiful, do the job and the lid is great, the lid quility is a 5, the lid is sturdy.

3 stars for now.....sturdy design, quick delivery from Amazon. I haven't use it yet hence minus 2stars. Will update the rating later after use

Excelente

Light weight and everything sticks. Took forever to clean.

Love the shape, cooks evenly and is simply versatile for all types of cooking including Indian sabjis(veg dishes) and chicken and meat. Love it

I love this pan. I got it a couple of days ago and have used it twice already. I wanted something that I could use on my induction cooktop with higher sides than a fry pan that would actually brown meats. Not a fan of grey meat cooked in a non stick frypan that you can only use on medium heat. This one fits the bill. I like the option of being able to use it in my oven as well. The unit is well made. The glass lid fits perfectly. And best of all the handles are cool to the touch when you are using it on the cooktop! I hate long handles when cooking multiple items on my cooktop. I have no issues cleaning it even though it is not a non stick pan. My last set was a stainless Paderno and I had no issues keeping the set sparkling. This brand is no different. The only downfall is that this is only a 4 quart. Wish it was bigger but knew what I was buying so not really a fault. I am going to start look for a second one that is larger. Great value and a well made pan that I know I am going to use again and again!
