Calphalon 12 qt stockpot : This is without a doubt the best pot I have ever used! While cooking, the lid does not get so hot that one cannot pick it up.

Also, if the pot needs to be picked up by the handles on the side, you will not burn yourself.

The heat is transfered equally throughout the pot (bottom, sides, etc.) as it is cooking. It is easy cleanup. I now want a whole set. More Review
