This pot is mediocre. There are two problems that I would not expect in what is named as part of Calphalon's higher-priced line:
-the stainless steel discolors much more easily than the other piece of Calphalon I own, a triply line frying pan that I'm happy with, and seems harder to get clean even with elbow grease and vinegar
-perhaps because there's only an aluminum base or perhaps because the aluminum is less than high quality, it took 15-20 minutes to boil 4 qts of water on an electric range on the middle setting (and the instructions recommend not going higher)
On the plus side, the glass lid actually fits my 10" Triply frying pan quite nicely.
If you want a pot for pasta, look elsewhere.

I cook every night for 4-5 people. I thought I had all the necessary equipment. But I just recently purchased this pot and it has made my life so much easier. I can steam tamales. Or corn. Or parboil ribs before putting them on the grill. I can boil tiny potatoes and steam broccoli at the same time. You can monitor the food via the see-thru lid. There is a steamer basket as well as a strainer for pasta. It's just the right size - not too big, not too small. I recommend it!

Perfect for the reasons I purchased it, cooking pasta and steaming veggies. With the pasta insert I can steam a whole head of cauliflower and a big head or two of broccoli all at the same time. I also like that I can cook pasta, linguine, drain the water and replace the pasta insert with linguine back in pot, put the glass lid on and it stays warm in pot. Also, great for corn on the cob. I haven't used the smaller steamer insert at all. I don't use the pot for soups or stews, I have a Calphalon 10-quart Dutch Oven for that (pot roast and chili). I am especially happy to find this set after purchasing an 8-qt pasta insert a couple of years ago that I thought would fit my old Calphalon 8-qt stock pot only to discover that it only fits a Calphalon Contemporary 8-qt pot. That was a waste of money because it's never been used. However, I'm VERY happy with this set because it's perfect for the reasons I bought it and I highly recommend it. It's easy enough to clean with hot soapy water, then I use the dishwasher just to drain it.

This pot is excellent quality. A little hard to clean and for some reason the dishwasher leaves spots on the bottom. I do recommend it though. Easy storage but you need a tall space.

Excellent stock pot with heavy bottom and clear lid to review cooking progress. Steam baskets add versitility.
