IMUSA 6 Qt Enamel Stock Pot for Canning, Blue

I bought this to set on our kitchen counter, to hold scraps and bits that will eventually go in our compost pile. I've looked at a lot of dedicated compost pots, but they're pricey and come with a charcoal filter. My feeling is that if you need a charcoal filter on your compost pot, you probably should be taking your compost out more often. Anyway, this is a decent pot for this purpose. It's cheap, tidy, and holds enough to get me through all but the really big cooking projects. If I wanted a cooking pot, though, I'd look for something else. It's a bit thin for cooking and the enamel coating isn't perfect, but it does the job I got it for and it's certainly inexpensive. The previous one I got lasted, which cost me about 10 dollars, lasted 10 years, so it cost about a dollar a year.

Good for a small pot of soup. Cleans up easily! I love it!! The only downside is the handles get hot on the stove.

Great pot for the money. The only thing that bothered me is you can’t peel the large sticker off the side easily. It tears. If I could have peeled it off I would have gave it 5 stars.

Nice flat bottom, no spin. Lid fits well, doesn't rock. Enamel seems heavy and is a pleasant blue color. It excells at doing one gallon pot things.

Ok, several reviews I've seen cite the fact that they use an adhesive on their labels that feels like they want them not to be removable at all. Serious... Soak in hot, soapy water... Helps a little, but they really don't want you to remove the label. Second, if you take time to read the chromium and other toxic materials list, you may, like I did, decide these pots aren't meant for food. The list of toxic substances used to make this is substantial... Be sure to read it before you decide to cook food for your family with this item.

I really love the look and size of this pot but I think I'm still learning some things when it comes to what I cook in. I made hamburger soup in it but I notice the food on the bottom burns and sticks quickly so you have to constantly stir. I am assuming it's because the bottom is not thick? This would be great for water bath canning so I can use it for canning when I can using small jars, but as far as sauteing or letting something simmer I don't feel like it works well for me. I want to add that it seems durable and the size I purchased was 6 qt. Again, love the size and look and I needed a quick replacement.

Great soup pot for the money and the lid works well on a frying pan too

Bought it for camping. I put food in it and a flame under it and it cooked stuff. Worked as expected

Just a nice size..

love this...for rice cooking too

It's hard after the picture to apeciate how big is... but I'll use it

buena para le precio
