This is a great pot at a bargain price! It works well, looks terrific, and has excellent design. The pot is sturdy and solid and features the best pair of handles I've ever used (cool and easy to grip). The transition between side and bottom is a nice rounded curve for easy cleaning. I'll never know if it braises or fries as well as my 4 qt all-clad; in my small household I use this 12 qt mostly for steaming and soup, where it performs flawlessly. You don't need to spend $360 to boil water!
Is this pot up to the standards of the all-clad? The handles are welded on and then reinforced with a welded plate. The design is sturdy, functional, and handsome, but not the absolute highest standard. The handle on the lid is merely spot welded--when choosing a shield for the gladiatorial ring, I'll definitely pick the all-clad lid. The pot isn't fully clad, but I don't see that as a problem for my needs. On the plus side, this pot has a curved lip for easier pouring.
I have the Bosch 3065 induction cooktop. This pot is large enough to fit the huge 11-inch burner. I'll probably also buy the 8 qt stock pot, but it will have to fight with the 4 qt all-clad for the medium sized burner.

Non-reactive stainless steel. The induction ready bottom is also perfect for ceramic cooktops. I am a professional chef of 20 years and I bought the 20 qt. version of this a few weeks ago. After using it for 1 week, I went online and bought the 12 qt. version. You will not find a better stainless pot for the money. Period.

You can certainly spend more, and if you have a hankerin for completing your set of AllClad, don't let me slow you down. And you can certainly spend less on a pot and take your chances. However, this is a well made pot with a solid non-glass lid that will serve you well for years to come. As to the size, it *is* on the larger size and if you have the space and budget for extra stuff, you might want a bunch of sizes for different jobs. But while you can make a 12 qt pot do the job of an 8 qt pot, it doesn't work the other way around.
I didn't get mine through Amazon but rather through my local restaurant store. If you don't have one of those handy, or they don't carry Update International, you can order here and I wouldn't hesitate about doing so.
