I have been using my set of Cuisinart for about 15 years now. Previously we had other brand name sets with Teflon that would have to be replaced in about 5 years, did not do a good sear and weren't made to go in the oven. Cast iron was not an option due to my glass top stove. I finally went for the solid stainless steel set of Cuisinart and have never regretted it. I thought that I would not like the frying pans but find that they are wonderful to use and easy to clean when you know a couple of tricks (I will share at the end.) They are excellent to sear steaks with a finish in the oven.
This pot lives up to the quality of all my other Cuisinart pots and pans and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Cleaning tips:
I use my skillets to sear steaks at very high heat then do a finish in a hot oven. After I remove the steaks and they are resting, I immediately put the hot pan into the sink and add water to it. This is like adding wine to your pan to 'deglaze' only this is for cleaning purposes. Then I use the spatula to scrape any stubborn bits. Most often I can get all the bits this way. For any stubborn bits and discoloration I use soft scrub; apply and let sit a few minutes then use a scrubbie. I can get the pan clean and put away before the steaks are done resting.
The lid edge is very thin and a bit sharp, but that’s the only negative I’ve found!
Are there "better" stock pots out there? Yeah, probably, but for the home cook this is a great pot at a good price.
Pros:
Quality - For the price, the quality is of the level I would expect. The steel is fairly thin at the sides of the pot, but the bottom is very sturdy and solid. It is not likely to warp or buckle due to the thick construction on the bottom of the pot. The lid fits properly. The handles are riveted securely. (In other reviews there were complaints about the rivets being obtrusive, collecting food, and tearing away. I do not find that to be true. It cleans easily and they don't protrude more than I consider reasonable. As for the rivets tearing away, I can only imagine it is a manufacturing defect and should be covered under the warranty.) It's certainly not at the level of an All Clad or Caphalon, but it's also $200-300 cheaper.
Price - It is moderately priced and it won't devastate me if it wears out in 5-7 years.
Design - It's a nice looking pot. I use a pot rack and so it hangs in full sight. The stainless finish is mirror clear and looks nice. It may scratch over time, but I will treat it well and it doesn't seem to be too fragile.
Heat conductivity - When boiling water, it doesn't take too long. I am accustomed to using copper bottom pots and they heat quickly. This pot keeps up well.
Size/Shape - When I first saw it, I was worried that it would be too shallow/wide to be a good spaghetti pot. It has proven to be perfect. I also don't have to fill it with water to get the spaghetti covered, as I would with a wider pot. And, it's also deep enough to cook enough for five people (or more, if desired).
Cons:
Uncovered handles - This is my chief criticism. All of my other pots and pans have covered handles that I can grab with my bare hand. These are not and they get extremely hot. Use a potholder or get a nasty burn. I would like this pot a lot better if the handles were covered.
Quality - I consider it a pro when considering the price, but a con when considering the potential durability. I find myself being cautious with the pot because it doesn't feel as hearty as my other cookware. The surface is likely to scratch. It will probably dent if I drop it or bang it hard enough while washing it. That said, I wouldn't consider it a deal breaker. If I had held it in my hands before buying it, I would have still bought it.
6/20/16: This pot is holding up extremely well. There are no dents and only very small scratches. It is in much better shape than I would have expected after three years. I just ordered the stock pot with the pasta strainer insert from Cuisinart as well based on my good experience with this pot.
2/1/24: Still in excellent condition and holding up as well as any of my more expensive pots and pans. Definitely a good value considering its longevity.

La uso varias veces al mes y he seguido las instrucciones que venian en la caja para su cuidado. Dado que es de acero inoxidable y aluminio, calienta bastante rápido y no sólo no es necesario usar una flama alta, no se debe de hacer.
Tiene muchas reseñas malas en Amazon gringo que alertan sobre manchas negras en la base de la olla.
Por el precio que pagué ($562) me parece una buena compra. Es bastante ligera y delgada comparada con otros productos de esta índole que a pesar de ser mucho más caros la calidad es superior y bastante evidente, pero si no quieres invertir en una de estas y solo quieres una simple olla para salsas, la recomiendo al 100%
