I purchased this as a replacement for a 5 1/2 quart pan that was recently ruined when it was being used for steaming...with no water. Oh well, luckily I got a great deal on the Circulon 5-1/2-Quart Dutch Oven and so far I'm very pleased with it's quality.

I've used it for numerous things: boiling water for pasta, simmering a large pot of marinara sauce, a pork roast in the oven and even a cheese sauce. It seems to maintain even heat, without any hot spots. I also like the clear lid so that I can see how things are progressing without removing the lid and losing heat. The only complaint I have and the reason for not giving it 5 stars is that the metal handles on both the sides and lid do get hot. I would expect that when using it in the oven, but even when using it on the stove they are too hot to touch without a hot pad.
