Circulon 83911 3-Qt. Covered Straining Hard Anodized Aluminum Saucepan, 3 Quart, Gray

These must be Defective Circulon items being sold by an Amazon seller. The lid does not fit and this defeats the object as steam will escape. Have to return it - shame as it was bought from Amazon US (I am in the UK).

Wish I had read the other reviews. The lid does not fit so had to return it.

I ordered the 10 quart pot expecting the Circulon to be a great product. In fact I wanted two of them. The first one was fine. The second was not. The lid did not fit properly. I could hardly believe it. It just would not lie flat on the pot. I sent it back and ordered another one. Same problem. The lid did not fit propertly. I did not know if the company bought seconds from Circulon, but enough was enough. I sent it back and ordered from another company. I await the news on that as it has not arrived yet.

Used porcelain with cast iron all my life, old now and my pots are too heavy for my arthritis. Not this one though, yes the cooking quality doesn't match Creuset but heck for the price it does pretty darn good!

Great pan, have made pasta and white sauce and boiled potatoes so far. The white sauce for scalloped potatoes was the best I’ve ever made. Loved boiling potatoes with lid on and venting, no water overflowing. Many have complained about the lid not fitting. Mine fits and is easy to lift etc.
