"Loved this pan the first time I bought it. Just had to replace, and the new version has a solid cover, so you can't see what's happening in the pan as it's cooking. Hope they go back to the original, excellent style."

"This is my second set of Anolon pans. As far as I’m concerned there is not a better pan on the market!"
"It’s a nice pan. One pan. Absolutely stop sending me emails insisting that I review. One pan. Based on the fact that I cannot seem to stop these emails. I will never order from you again."
"Return pot"
"Very disappointed in the product. I bought the same saucepan in 2010 and it lasted all these years with no real problems. I was due for a new one. But this is nothing like the former model. The handle is too long and awkward. The bottom of the pot is way too heavy you switched out the clear glass lid for an all metal one which makes it more difficult to see how things are cooking inside and in addition The lit is cheaply made and retains water after it is washed. I am not sure if I’m still within my return window, but if so, I would like to return it."
"Love our kettle. We purchased it to replace one that was our favorite and we wore it out. We bought the same one. Wish it was warranted."
"If you don't mind getting a second degree burn from the handle, this might be a good pot. I am not happy with it and I will not buy anything in this line of pots. I now have to find somethings to cover the handle or get rid of this and look for something else. It is heavy seems to be a good quality but the handle is a deal breaker for me. already hate the thought of using it. I have loved all the other I have from the Advanced Home but this size pot is no longer offered. a real shame too."
"Love my new pot, so much I bought a whole set. Easy clean up nice lids that’s interchangeable. Not too heavy."
"I didn’t realize this was a straining pan until I got it but that only makes this better. I love my anolon cookware. My only ? Is the packaging - the box was so big I thought I had mistakenly received an entire cookware set!"
"I bought this 15 years ago!! That is not a typo. (2006) 15 years I have used this pot for everything. It always goes in the dishwasher and it always out performs anything I have ever used. I have the glass lid. I also have a larger pour and strain pot and 3 frying pans. These have traveled over 2,000 miles moving across the country and back and have never broken and the handles have never come loose. I’m writing this review so you will know what you are buying is the best of the best. I just ordered a new one yesterday along with two frying pans, because as you will notice in the photos, enough of the non stick coating has worn off that it’s no longer non stick, but only on the bottom!! The rest is still good!! 15 years of raising two boys cooking many dishes in this pot. I don’t expect the next one to have to last as long as this one, but I know my purchase is a solid one and I will never own anything else. Analon Advanced as I’m sure Analon Nouvelle will be a main part of my cookware for many, many years. Thank you for an incredibly outstanding product!!!"
