J.A. Henckels International Classic Clad 6-Quart Stock Pot with Lid Description:
Henckels International Clad Cookware is tri-ply cookware composed of 18/10 stainless, aluminum and magnetic stainless. The middle aluminum layer extends from the base up the sides of the pan so the heat is conducted evenly throughout the pan. This increases the cooking performance of the pan and eliminates hot spots, which can burn foods because of uneven heating when cooking. The stainless steel material on the interior cooking surface and outside of the pan is high strength, resistant to rusting and does not react when in contact with food.

Customer Reviews:
Another Keeper!
I am thrilled with this purchase.
After purchasing and using the 1 quart saucepan for awhile, I decided to splurge and replace my old, cheaper SS pots with this brand.
I gave me great pleasure to donate the old ones to a charity.
I’m not likely to ever need new ones again, because these pots are so well made. My older ones would develop hot spots and tend to scorch unless you were glued to the pot while cooking.
This brand of cookware does an excellent job. The heat is evenly dispersed, the handles are hefty, they are very sturdy without the weight of enameled cast iron in similar sizes and they clean up easily.
What more could I ask for?
The inside measurements are an added bonus. They consist of both qt and liter measurements, making it easy to add liquids without using a measuring cup.
I’ve purchased the Henckels Classic Clad in the 1 qt, 2 qt, 3.5 qt, 6 qt and 8 qt sizes and fully expect them to serve me and whoever inherits them indefinately.
Great for braising!
I have had this pan for a few months now, and love to use it for my braised dishes. It is wonderful on the stovetop or in the oven and provides for even heat. Clean up is easy if you soak it. It’s a very solid pan and will last forever, that’s for sure!
Amazon.com Review
Clad inside and out in gleaming stainless steel, this six-quart stock pot is ideal for slowly simmering chili, soups, and stews. An aluminum core sandwiched between the stainless steel layers distributes heat evenly not just across the bottom of the pot but up the sides, and requires only low to medium cooking temperatures. Riveted for strength, two square handles on the sides of the pot and another on the stainless-steel lid offer secure lifting even with mitts on. Whisks, spoons, and cleaning brushes all glide smoothly along the curved inner contour of the pan, and the lid fits snugly on the flared, easy-pour rim.
J.A. Henckels International, the economical division of Zwilling J.A. Henckels, makes the stylish and durable Classic Clad series for serious home cooks. As well as being oven- and broiler-safe up to 500 degrees F, each pot or pan features a brightly polished magnetic stainless-steel exterior safe for all types of stovetop burners: gas, electric, ceramic, induction, and halogen. The 18/10 stainless-steel interior resists sticking, won’t react to acidic foods, and welcomes metal utensils. Henckels recommends washing Classic Clad pieces by hand to retain the mirror finish, and covers the cookware with a lifetime warranty against defects. Except for the frying pans, each pot shows liter and quart markings, and every piece comes wrapped in a soft, drawstring gift/storage bag. -Ann Bieri
