Anolon Advanced Bronze Collection Hard Anodized Nonstick 4.5-Quart Tapered Stockpot

I have many cookwares from the Anolon Advanced Bronze Collection. This 4.5 quart stockpot and the 3 quart sauce pot are my favorite. I've cooked rice and curry, and they are fabulously non-stick and easy to clean. Rubber handles stay cool, and are very comfortable to hold onto. The bottom of this pot is a bit smaller than the top, measuring 7 inches in diameter instead of the 9.5 inches at the top.

One area of improvement is the exterior finish. The bronze hue is of an elegant shade. Unfortunately, it is not scratch resistant and can be chipped off. So be careful cleaning and avoid coming into contact with any sharp object.

excellent finish, tight lid. light to handle and cleans easily. handles are excellent and stay cool. price was right at time of purchase and reviews were very good . also checked with consumer reports and they gave high ratings. very satisfied

When I purchased a new ceramic top stove, I had to part with some of my favorite frying pans (cast iron which I do use, but carefully and occasionally). I like these pans so well I ordered another set, and bought this 4 qt pot as well. These are well made and a delight to cook with.

A year later, I still love this pan...good size for soup, etc. However, either I didn't notice it at first or it somehow changed size, but the lid doesn't fit really tight (for dumplings) but it does fit ok for anything else.
