Made In Factory Seconds CeramiClad® Stock Pot – 5-Ply Stainless Clad with Ceramic Non Stick Coating, Large-Capacity Stock Pot

I've been cooking for forty years and this is hands down the nicest stock pot in my kitchen. The 5-ply construction heats evenly all the way up the sides, so my chili doesn't scorch at the bottom like it used to. The ceramic surface cleans up with just a sponge, even after bone broth simmers all day. Heavy, well balanced, and the handles feel secure even when it's full. The factory second blemish was a tiny mark on the outside — couldn't care less. Worth every penny of the sale price.

Huge capacity, heats fast on my induction cooktop, and nothing sticks. Love it.

Cooks beautifully and the non stick ceramic coating is the real deal. My only gripe is the factory second I received has a visible scratch on the rim. Function is perfect though.

Performance is excellent and cleanup is easy, but it's quite heavy when full and my wife struggles to move it. Also noticed a couple of minor exterior marks. Still a good pot.

I make big batches of soup for meal prep every week and this pot handles it all. Nothing burns on the bottom and it washes clean in seconds. The handles stay cooler than my old aluminum pot. Genuinely impressed.

Saved $75 and it's better than my old $150 pot.

I understand factory seconds have flaws, but mine arrived with a noticeable dent in the base that makes it rock slightly on my glass cooktop. Heating is still mostly even, but I expected better for the price. Customer service was responsive about it, so I'll give them that.

Using this for bone broth and small-batch canning. The capacity is generous, the ceramic interior releases everything, and the 5-ply bottom prevents hot spots on my gas range. Only wish it came with a lid rack option.

My kids make ramen and mac and cheese in this constantly and even burnt cheese wipes right out. The CeramiClad coating is legit.
