A good deal Jul 20, 2008
By Shanthi
These pots are pretty thin and you can expect the base to be of the same thickness as the sides. Still, I thought it was a good deal when I paid a little over $21! In a few days the price went down further to about $17. That would have been a better price to pay!
They stack well and the lid of the smaller one fits into the next size (except for the largest of course). They could dent easily!
They heat up quickly and are great when you need to make cheese or just make stocks and soups for a large gathering!
It's also great as a double boiler!

 Not as advertised Feb 14, 2010
By Jerry K. Mccullough
The set 4 pots are avertised as 20 quart, 16 quart, 12 quart and 8 quart. The 20 quart pot will only hold 16 quarts. The 16 quart pot will only hold 13 quarts. The 12 quart pot will only hold 10 quarts. The 8 quart pot will only hold 6 quarts. The seller and manufactureer are misleading the buyer with false claims. I recommend that you buy the pots somewhere else.

 Very thin metal Jul 29, 2008
By some guy
The metal on these stock pots is probably the thinnest I've seen on any pots or pans. There were some small dents/dings in them when I got it, and I'm not sure if this can be avoided, because of the thickness of the metal.
Nonetheless, for the money ($15 shipped), it is a pretty good value. I weighed all of the pots+lids together in order to report for this review, and they weigh about 10 pounds total.
If you need large pots but don't plan on using them often and you're not putting them out on display and you don't care whether or not they are high quality, this set is a good bet. Or if you're dying shirts or doing something else with non-food items and you don't want to use the same pots you use for eating, you could get these in order to have some pots dedicated to whatever non-food purpose you have.
Don't get me wrong - it's not like these pots are thin like an aluminum foil disposable roaster pan - they are thicker than that and I have no doubt that when they will do a solid job if you fill them with water or something else like that. They should be able to do anything you'd normally use a pot for.
I'm giving this 2 stars for quality and because some of it had small dents, but it's probably close to 4 or or maybe 5 for value, I guess.

Worth the price Sep 11, 2008
By K. Bevilaqua
"ScoupeG16"
I got these for about $15 shipped. The price has since gone up but they are worth the cheaper price... they are very thin as others have stated but in the end they get the job done. I am having a party this weekend and we were making spaghetti sauce in the pot, the thin metal heats up much faster than other pots and the sauce burned and had to be thrown away. Remember this and use caution when cooking with them! They are very compact, everything fits inside one another and I recommend them if the price ever comes back down.

On what planet is this 20 quarts? Jan 24, 2011
By Spadpin
I purchased this set with the sole intention of using the 20 quart stock pot for brewing beer. I thought the price was great, and I would get three more stock pots with the set. The problem is that there is no way the largest pot is 20 quarts. At the most, I would have to say that it is 16. I am very disappointed with this purchase. I would not recommend this product to anyone. I am going to be looking into how to return this product due to false advertising.
