Review of Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 8-Quart Stockpot with Glass Lid

I needed a saucepan to cook oatmeal in that would let go on the bits that stick to the bottom.Sounds silly, but I love oatmeal and hate cleaning the pan afterwards.This cleans up easily and cooks evenly.I have used it for cooking rice, gravies and other foods that seem to stick and it always cleans up well.Now, for the lid.There is a black band on the inside of the lid and it scrubed off one night recently.I sat down, wrote an email to the company and by the next day, they have a new lid on the way.They asked only where to send it, nothing else.I like companies that stand by the product they sell.So, if you are going to buy from this line, check that black band, it should be between the glass and the metal, not on the inside of the lid.If you have a problem with the product, ALWAYS notify the manufacturer, they will almost always make it right, like Calphalon did for me.
