Comment: This is an above average piece put out by Farberware. I have never owned a Farberware piece so I cant necessarily compare to other pieces of the same brand. The upside of this piece is it has a nice finish to it. The Tri-Ply base if relatively thick, and I highly doubt it will bend or warp without abuse. The handles are all wide enough to grasp (None of those teenie two finger and thumb handles or knobs). I couldnt quite imagine a 5qt. size, so I was quite surprised at how large it actually was. This is supposed to be a dutch oven, but I will probabally use it as a stockpot (when not using it as a steamer).
The downside is that the sides are fairly thin. They wont keep much heat and may dent some if banged around. The handles also leave me an uneasy feeling as though they may break away from the sides of the pot. This is just my feeling as I am used to smaller heaftier handles such as on Calphalon or All-Clad lines.
All in all, I would buy this piece again. If you need a steamer, this is probabally your best buy. The sale price is worth it. This piece makes a great specialty piece, but would recommend the Calphalon or All-Clad line for frying pans or pots. Amazon sells Calphalon at sale prices quite often and I highly recommend purchasing them as they become available at discount. This piece would receive five stars if only the sides were just a tad thicker. Hope this helped!
