Farberware Classic Series 11 Quart Stockpot with Glass Lid

A superb quality pan with heavy bottom. It’s good size for small quantities. Highly recommended.

Beautiful set of pans! This set has just the right number of pans and they are the perfect sizes. My first set of Farberware Classic pans lasted more than 30 years until I moved them to the camp trailer and bought this new set. Best quality, best value, and lasts forever!

Great little pot. Pouring from it very convenient!

Very well made and perfect size! This is one of the nicest double boilers I've ever seen. I researched for weeks before buying this one and I'm EXTREMELY please with this one.

I purchased the Farberware Classic Stainless Series 2-Quart Covered Double Boiler and, functionally, it is exactly what I was looking for. Performance & Quality The pot itself is very nice. It feels sturdy, looks classic, and works exactly as it should. The stainless steel heats evenly, and the 2-quart size is perfect for melting chocolate, making custards, or preparing delicate sauces without scorching them. It’s a reliable addition to the kitchen that feels like it will last a long time. Packaging Observations The only downside was the way it arrived. Instead of the standard Farberware retail box, the double boiler was simply placed in a plastic bag and then inside a standard Amazon shipping box. It felt a bit "weird" and led me to suspect it might have been a previous return rather than a brand-new retail unit. Pros: High-quality stainless steel construction. Works perfectly for delicate cooking tasks. Classic design that matches other Farberware pieces. Cons: Disappointing packaging (arrived in a plastic bag rather than a box). Bottom Line: If you can get past the odd packaging, the product itself is excellent and does its job perfectly.

I love this pan. I have a large family, and making pasta requires, well, a lot of pasta. Straining sometimes was hard, as my large strainer had some large holes. Thinner noodles like angel hair would often fall through. Other strainers with smaller holes were smaller in overall size. Thus, I came upon this product. It easily holds enough water to boil two pounds of pasta, or five pounds of potatoes. And the locking, strainer lid, has two different sized holes on either side, so you can use the best strainer for whatever food you are cooking. It heats up quickly, it drains easily, it cleans easily. Made of stainless steel, you will not find rust, and it is sturdy. Five pounds of potatoes. Mac and cheese for the hole family, with bechamel sauce, but still cleans up quickly and easily. Just make sure the locking lid is, in fact, locked. It can, infrequently, shift enough to unlock, and if it does, well... This pan does its intended job and it does it well, everytime, as long as you are careful to use it properly. Highly recommended

I'm very pleased with the two pans, but as I figured by the price it wasn't going to be high quality stainless steel and I was right. Didn't even come close to the magnet test. High grade stainless steel a magnet will not stick to it. Mid grade stainless steel a magnet will hold so so. Low grade it holds on well. the lower the grade of stainlesssteel. The better a magnet will hold. The magnet I used was a low grade magnet that holds a photo on my refrigerator. Not a strong magnet at all. It stuck nicely onto both pans. I have to say. I do love Farberware products. I grew up using them. My mom and dad received a complete set of Farberware as a wedding gift. That was in 1956. My mom still has that complete set and she still uses them everyday. A life time of use and they still look great. One cam ask for more than that. A magnet will not stick them either. I bought a complaint set of Farberware when I moved out on my own back in 1979. I still have my set. Some thing, amagnet will not stick to them. The reason I bought these 2 pans. I bought them because my original set didn't include these size pans. I have been using non stick pans for decades. I'm tried of them only lasting a short time and wanted to go back to using stainless steel pans. So I bought this set. Being low stainless steel, they still clean up easily and cook evenly. In my opinion they're very nice pans at a great price. I hope this helps. A good quality stainless steel pan is going to cost a lot more.

Faberware still makes a great product. Replaced one that I couldn’t fix the handle on. Lasted about 50 years of daily use. No reason to believe that the new one won’t last as long
