Smart Control Nonstick Stock Pot/Stockpot with Lid, 6 Quart, Black

This pot boils quickly, washes easily, good non stick, not heavy, handles aren’t too hot with cooking. We scratched this pot within the first few weeks and the coating started chipping off in that area - it was our fault as we used a metal utensil without thinking. It was very well protected in packaging.

Bought for daughter.it's great.cleans up nicely with soap and water after letting it cool down.good price also.

I added this stock pot to my kitchen for soups, stews, and larger batch cooking, and it’s been a practical addition so far. The size is generous without being awkward to handle, and it feels balanced when full. The nonstick surface works well for its intended purpose and makes cleanup straightforward, even after thicker recipes. The lid fits securely and helps retain heat, and the handles stay manageable with standard oven mitts. One thing worth noting is that, like most nonstick cookware, it benefits from gentle utensils and hand washing to preserve the coating over time. This isn’t a premium, heavy-duty chef’s pot, but it’s reliable for everyday home cooking.

I love this pot! I actually bought my first one secondhand from a thrift store and used it for a long time, even though it wasn’t in the best condition. I loved it so much that I searched everywhere until I finally found it online — I was so happy when I did! It’s perfect for steaming rice — it cooks evenly and the ventilation feature on the lid is amazing. You can flip it up to let the steam out or close it to keep all the steam inside. But here’s the one thing to watch out for: it scratches very easily. Even though it’s supposed to be non-stick, you have to be super careful. Always use silicone or plastic utensils — no metal forks or spoons. I’ve used metal utensils on other non-stick pots without a problem, but this one scratches fast if you’re not careful. Overall, it’s a great pot and I still love it — just handle it gently so it stays looking nice!

First and foremost, the size of this pot is perfect for a variety of cooking needs. Whether I'm preparing a hearty stew, boiling pasta for the whole family, or simmering a flavorful soup, this 6qt pot provides ample space to accommodate large portions without compromising on performance. The build quality is exceptional. The pot is sturdy, with a well-fitting lid that locks in heat and moisture, ensuring optimal cooking results. The heat distribution is even, preventing any hot spots and allowing my dishes to cook uniformly every time. I appreciate the non-stick interior of the pot, as it makes cooking and cleaning a breeze. Even sticky sauces and stubborn food residue easily slide off, requiring minimal effort for a thorough cleanup. This feature is a time-saver and greatly enhances the overall cooking experience. The pot's ergonomic handles provide a secure and comfortable grip, even when the pot is filled with hot liquids. This aspect, coupled with the durable construction, instills confidence and promotes safe handling in the kitchen.

As long as you keep it our of the dishwasher, it will hold up well. I''ve had mine for over a year now and it still cooks like brand new. I know it might say dishwasher safe, but the heat will dry the coating and destroy it quicker. Just a tip.

Easy care and a perfect size for a good pot of soup or spaghetti.

It arrived fast. It works very well. Edited: after one year, I must say that I am disappointed with this pot. The interior liner is damaged. It got damaged by itself. We have not used knives or anything. But from one cooking to another, the inner wall gets more and more damaged. I will never ever buy Farberware again.

Light, but works very well..... Easy to clean. !!

Nice feel to the cooking experience. Although, I'll recommend that size descriptions in 'Litres' as only against 'Quartz' be offered to enable international customers accurately assess their size requirements.

I love this pot. Easy to clean up

It's lightweight and doesn't burn. I know because I forgot some corn boiling in the pot and the corn burnt, but the pot is as good as new.

Good size and non stick. Light in weight so easy to lift
