Know before you buy
While the pot has a generous 16-quart capacity, its 14.8-inch width is designed to fit most standard residential burners. However, it is a tall vessel at 11.8 inches, so you should ensure you have adequate clearance under your range hood or microwave before purchasing.
Yes, this stainless steel stockpot is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic ranges.
Absolutely. Because it is oven and broiler safe up to 600°F and features heavy-gauge stainless steel, it can handle high-heat tasks like searing or browning ingredients before adding liquids for a stock or stew.
The pot is specifically designed with tall sides to minimize evaporation, and the included stainless steel lid is engineered to sit securely to help retain moisture and heat during long simmers.
This stockpot is dishwasher safe, making cleanup straightforward after large cooking projects. However, hand washing is often recommended to maintain the polished finish of the stainless steel over time.
The riveted handles are designed for a secure, permanent grip, which is essential when handling a pot of this size. While they are sturdy, they are made of stainless steel and will get hot during stovetop use, so you should always use oven mitts.
