Nice, but HEAVY
Bought this from Amazon. As usual shipping was prompt and pot arrived in good condition. The BUT I mentioned is the weight of the pot itself. Hustling this tank in and out of a very hot oven is hazardous. Weight is listed as 15.6 lbs, but I weighed the pot and saw over 16 lbs. With over a gallon of liquid and other stuff in it the weight goes up to well over 20 lbs.
My first and so far only attempt at cooking anything in it was a French onion soup recipe from America's Test Kitchen. It involved having to take the pot out of the oven twice. Each time I was concerned that the pot holders would not give me enough purchase to grip the smallish handles. Dealing with an oven at 450 degrees and having to reach down into the oven for this very heavy pot made me worry I was going to contact the hot surface of the pot or the oven. Fortunately I got away without burning myself.
Would I have bought it if I knew the weight I would be dealing with ... no. Guy Fieri is a big...
