This is a stainless stock pot with a perforated pasta insert, part of a 5-ply clad cookware line. The five metal layers spread heat evenly, which cuts hot spots and the stuck-on messes they cause. The insert lifts out so you can pull pasta at the right moment, blanch vegetables, steam, or strain broth, and the looped handles and rolled rim make draining cleaner. It suits cooks who make pasta, stock and big-batch soups often and want one pot to do several jobs. Against basic single-ply stock pots it heats more evenly and cleans up faster; against a dedicated pasta pot it trades a built-in lid strainer for a lift-out insert.

This stock pot set pairs a stainless steel stock pot with a lightweight perforated pasta insert. It is part of the Stainless Clad Collection. The insert gives control over pasta cooking times, reduces clean-up and helps prevent sticking.
The pot is built from 5 layers of metals for even heat conduction and rapid cooking. The 5-ply construction prevents the hot spots that lead to stuck-on messes, so it cleans up quickly.
Two looped handles make it easy to carry the pot from the stove to a colander. A rolled rim lets you drain pasta and strain broth without spilling. Besides cooking pasta, the set can be used to blanch vegetables, can preserves and steam.
