D3 Stainless Steel Stockpot with Lid, 8 Quart by All-Clad
The Buy Me Once Verdict
The big pot: pasta for a crowd, stock from the Thanksgiving carcass, a batch of chili for the freezer. Eight quarts is the size most homes actually need, and the D3 is the one that outlives the stove it sits on.
Why this should last
Cheap stockpots have a thin body and a bonded disc on the bottom that eventually separates. The D3 is tri-ply from rim to base, so the aluminum core is sealed inside stainless everywhere and there is no disc. Two riveted steel loop handles, a steel lid, no plastic anywhere. Nothing to chip or peel.
Is it the right one for you?
It is an investment for a pot you might use once a week, so if you only boil pasta a thinner pot will do. If you make stock, soup or big batches, this is the last one you will buy. Induction ready.
The guarantee
All-Clad's limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
