Product Description:
Trust All-Clad's stainless steel stock pots to cook soups, stews, pasta and stocks to mouth-watering perfection. Stainless steel outside and inside with a layer of heat conducting aluminum on the bottom yield a pot that heats quickly and evenly, doesn't react with food, and maintains its good looks over a lifetime of service. This handy set includes two steamer baskets. Use the larger one for clams, lobsters, pasta, and corn on the cob. The smaller one would be handy for shrimp and vegetables.

Amazon.com Review:
Reach for the All-Clad 12-quart multi-cooker whenever you cook up a big batch of pasta, a mess of corn on the cob, or clams for a crowd. Oven-safe to 500 degrees F, the multi-cooker comes with riveted stainless-steel handles. The included pasta basket and steamer basket feature lift-out handles to simplify draining and can be set aside if you are cooking soup or chili. The bestseller among All-Clad's renowned cookware collections, the Stainless line provides serious and professional cooks all the virtues that make All-Clad's worldwide reputation unsurpassed. Key to its high performance is a three-ply, bonded construction. Sandwiched between layers of stainless steel is a thick core of pure aluminum that spreads heat evenly across the bottoms of pots and pans and all the way up the sides. The interior is 18/10 highly polished stainless steel, so it's stick-resistant as well as stain- and corrosion-resistant. The exterior is gleaming, magnetic stainless steel that works on induction as well as conventional stovetops, and, with care, remains beautiful during this cookware's lifetime warranty against defects--and beyond. --Fred Brack

From the Manufacturer
All-Clad Stainless Construction
Each piece of All-Clad cookware features a unique metal bonding construction. All-Clad Stainless cookware sandwiches a thick core of three separate layers of aluminum between an easy-to-clean, highly polished 18/10 stainless-steel cooking surface and a magnetic stainless-steel exterior. The aluminum core retains heat and evenly distributes it along the bottom and up the sidewalls of the cookware. The stainless interior is stick-resistant and cleans easily. The magnetic stainless-steel exterior gives the cookware a gleaming finish. All-Clad Stainless also features the company's signature "stay-cool" long handles, lids fashioned from gleaming 18/10 stainless steel, and highly durable stainless-steel rivets. All-Clad Stainless cookware is one of five collections from All-Clad Metalcrafters. Designed to work on conventional gas and electric ranges, as well as induction cooktops, All-Clad Stainless cookware is the best-selling collection in a full line that includes All-Clad LTD, Cop-R-Chef, Master Chef 2, and Copper Core.

Features and Benefits
All-Clad pans with a stainless interior cooking surface are oven-safe up to 500 degrees. All-Clad pans with a non-stick cooking surface are oven-safe up to 400 degrees, but should not be used under the broiler. We recommend using a low to medium temperature when cooking with All-Clad. Higher heats are not necessary and may cause discoloration (see cleaning instructions below). Other features include:
  • Beautifully polished, magnetic stainless exterior layer.
  • Pure aluminum core that not only covers the bottom of the pan but also extends up the sides. This allows for great heat conductivity as well as an even heat distribution so you won't have "hot spots" when cooking.
  • Stainless-steel interior layer/cooking surface.
  • Long, polished stainless, stay-cool handles.
  • Sturdy, non-corrosive stainless-steel rivets won't react with foods.
  • Polished stainless-steel lids fit evenly with the pan's edges to seal in flavor of your foods.
  • The All-Clad Stainless collection is compatible with an induction stovetop (with the exception of a few pieces) in addition to gas and electric stovetops.
  • The Stainless collection is dishwasher-safe, excluding pieces with a nonstick cooking surface.


Warranty
From date of purchase, All-Clad guarantees to repair or replace any item found defective in material, construction or workmanship under normal use and following care instructions. This excludes damage from misuse or abuse. Minor imperfections and slight color variations are normal.

Cleaning Instructions
For daily cleaning, warm soapy water is sufficient. Clean your All-Clad thoroughly after each use. Food films left of the pan may cause discoloration and sticking. To get rid of stuck-on food or discoloration and stains from using too high of a heat, we recommend cleaning your All-Clad with a product called Bar Keeper's Friend. To use the Bar Keeper's Friend, simply use a soft cloth or sponge and water and make into a soupy paste. This can be used on the interior, as well as the exterior of your All-Clad (excluding the Cop-R-Chef). The Bar Keeper's Friend can also be used on the exterior of the All-Clad Stainless collection, LTD collection, and MC2 collection. For cleaning of the Cop-R-Chef exterior, simply use a brass/copper cleaner. If your water has a high iron content, you may notice a rusty discoloration. Use Bar Keeper's Friend to remove it.

All-Clad Stainless Selection
In recent years, a professional-size 14-inch fry pan was added to the Stainless fry pan assortment, as well as several popular specialty pans, including: the small-size petite brasier with a dome-shaped lid; petite roti roasting pan; and the beautiful, large-capacity Dutch oven and French oven oval roasting pan with roasting rack. Both of these one-pot comfort food specialty pans comes with All-Clad's popular high dome-shaped lid. Other specialty pans include a larger brasier pan with domed-shape lid; a complete family of round-shaped saucier saucepans for versatile stove-top cooking; a flare-sided Windsor pan in two sizes, designed for reduction and the creation of rich sauces; and a contemporary "Soup for Two" 3-1/2-quart soup pot; casseroles; an open stir fry; a versatile wok-style chef's pan; and a "Pasta Pentola" 7-quart stockpot with colander insert and lid. All saucepans, casseroles, sauté pans, stock pots, and specialty items come with lids. Double boiler and steamer inserts, including the large steamer insert for 6-quart, 8-quart and 12-quart stockpots, are available as well. Stainless cookware sets are available in various sizes, from a starter 5-piece to a complete 10-piece set.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great item
I did a lot of research prior to this purchase. This is a superior item at a good price. I highly recommend.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Serves the purpose
Amazon had a 'lightning deal' on this and it's why I decided to get one, apart from the brand reputation, of course.I agree that the pot is not as thick as the other All-Clad pots and pans but I think it may be because it's meant to be just a water pot for the attachments.I don't know the technicality of it but I am pleased with it.I was able to cook a big batch of spaghetti sauce in the pot without any burning or the like.Recommended unless I guess you have more money to get the more expensive ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I expected more
I am disappointed in the pot.I got it for a wedding present.The first one I got had a dent where the pot meets the base. I can see how that could happen because the base is so much heavier than the whole pot.If it ever fell the cheap part of the pot would dent instantly. While this may be great buy with anyones name on it for $25, it isn't at over a hundred.It is made in China, feels like it is made in China.The stainless steel discolored the first time I used it getting that bluish tinge of cheap ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great pot for a good price!
I have had this pot for several years, and I couldn't live without it.It does not have the heavy cast construction that the regular All-Clad pots have (and I love), but I think it's actually better for steaming and blanching.It's lighter weight makes such a big pot easier to handle, and I don't see how a heavy cast pot could do a better job at these two tasks.I have a 20 quart regular All-Clad, but I use this one almost exclusively for these everyday tasks.I usually use the taller of the two inserts. ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I am satisfied.
I was hold back because it's made in China.
Otherwise, it is better than what I guess.
This pot is heavier than other brand(caphalon, anolon, etc.)so that it's stable and evenly cooked.
Most of all the reason I was satisfied is its compositions.
I don't need a another pot for pre cook, there is some baskets already.
Also looks nice.
