All Clad Stainless Steel Pasta Pentola with Insert


Multi-use, multi-featured 7-qt pot
I've had All Clad cookware for years and I guess I take it for granted. I recently became enamored with a pot shown on TV. I'd actually forgotten how much better All Clad is because of its thick stainless steel. The new pot seemed so thin by comparison and sure enough it didn't take long before something burned in it. I eventually got it clean but the interior finish is darkened permanently. It just reminded me to stick to the All Clad.

This particular pot is wonderful for many reasons. First of all, because it is tall and relatively narrow I use it for things that would splatter and make a mess if using the three or even the four quart pot. This one is a little bigger around than the three and four quart pans and the covers aren't interchangeable, but it's a small difference. The pot is mostly just taller. I wouldn't make tomato sauce without it or strawberry jam that tends to climb pot walls and wants to boil over. While the pot is tall, it's not so tall I can't...
Centerpiece of our All Clad collection
We have been building our collection of All Clad pots and pans for about 10 years now, and for whatever reason never added this until just now. I can't believe that we lived without it for so long. It has quickly become our most used piece. The build quality is very high, as we have come to expect with All Clad. This should be the first piece you buy if you are interested in having All Clad pots and pans.
