I was very apprehensive about buying this pot because the description says it's a 5.4qt pot, and 5.2" high. This conflicts w/ my old-old Sitram info that says it's supposed to be 7.4qts and 6.3" high. However, there was an interim distributor that did describe it as a 5.4qt pot. As it turns out, the pot really is 7.4qts, and about 6+" high (interior) - just what I wanted.It's now been 30+ years since I became serious about cooking. Over the years, I've owned sets of Calphalon (anodized), All-Clad and Cuisinart, but they all had/have faults that I found unacceptable. Eventually, I settled on the Sitram Catering line for my cookware arsenal. For me, the Sitram Catering line is the best with the least faults at an affordable price.
I do still use black steel frypans (Bourget) because I can get them really hot without fear of warping; and LeCreuset pots for those stews and slow braises. And my faithful woks, of course.
