This review is from: WMF Function 4 Pasta/Stock Pot with Lid, 9-Quart (Kitchen)

Received my WMF pot,cooked a pound of spaghetti..had to use a low power of two and a half on my stove after bringing water to a boil,very efficient steel,i think the silicone helps quite a bit keeping in the heat,heat control as good as my copper peices.
the straining works as advertised,lid stays in place while straining out water,the silicon rubber around the lid is very thick and heavy duty,impressive,i was never a fan of anything silicone till now.Handles stay cool,the rim gets hot if you place your thumbs to hold the lid while straining out water,
but you really don't have to touch the rim after some practice,lid stays put well,the last bit of water evaporates and spaghetti is dry from the heat left in the thick bottom of the pot before your eyes in seconds,pretty cool.
Only thing i found not up to snuff is the dimensions...this pot is 10 inches tall,not 14 inches as specified in the description..but 10" is more than enough for spaghetti,so
i'm actually happy...Read more
