Customer Q&AAsk a Question
For a handle to be welded, the metal must first be melted and then adhered to the pan body. This creates a strong bond that leaves little to no space in between, so bacteria and other food crumbs can’t collect and cause sanitation issues. Both are long lasting solutions for fry and sauce pan handles because they are durable and can withstand heat.

pot great stock quality easy heavy price pots clean inductionCustomer Reviews
Durable and easy to clean and priced much better than some high-end brands but just as durable. Solid welding and craftsmanship, we us several stock pots and sauce pans from Vigor.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I've search for a durable stock pot that wasn't going to eat at my pockets an ran across this one. I absolutely love this stock pot & plan on purchasing more. My family enjoy gumbo, so a 16qt pot was prefect for our gumbo days.
Not super light but but durably built. it does not have rivets on the inside making it easy to clean. I don't particularly like aluminum pots therefore purchasing these. The thickened bottom keep food from burning too fast and distributes heat evenly.
This is a fantastic price for a pot that helps me produce outstanding chicken soup! It seems to conduct and to cook just like more expensive pots.
This toilet paper I use all the time and they are easy to use and reliable. They don’t rip and get them job done with no breaks, holes or rips. Highly recommend this trustworthy product to all!!
I love these, it is so hard to find commercial pots to use with our invert plate, we ordered the 16qt & 12qt . They worked perfectly in our food truck.
Great stainless steel pot, i have used it to warm up coconut milk, does not rust and has an aluminum clad so the bottom is distributing the heat evenly never burns the bottom. The quality is great, it has large rounded handles, makes it easy to handle.
I bought a couple of these stock pots for my restaurant. They are very heavy duty and the quality is amazing. Very happy with my purchase!
Very high quality and heavy-duty saucepot that will tackle any stock-making or brining process with ease. Very sturdy but not too heavy for its size, it is versatile for any large-batch need.
This beautiful silver stock pot works great for gravies not too big not too small and it cleans up very nicely have had no issues
These are a great quality item for a very reasonable price. I've been using these daily for over a year and they still look brand new!
I’ve been looking for a stock pot this size for a long time. This thing doesn’t disappoint. It’s huge! Perfect for stewing my beef broth. And great for boiling a large chicken.
If you want a pot that will last a lifetime, get this pot. The stronger stainless steel will outlast any cheap aluminum pot and it works with induction stoves.
Great multi use stock pot. The 16 quart works well for smaller batches of stock. The handles allow for a sturdy grip when transferring a full pot.
This Vigor 16qt stainless steel pot is great! This works well with the avantco induction range that I purchased. it heats up well and also works well in an ice bath.
Extremely GOOD QUALITY!!! Heavy duty and definitely 100% stainless steel, coz we use it on induction cooker. We have been using it for a year and it still shiny as brand new. Easy to clean, we just use regular dish soap.
This is the second stock pot I have ordered and used in this group. They are so nice for the price that I am going to order another size. The quality is great and the lid fits perfectly. The 16 Qt. size is perfect for soups, stews and stock. They are well protected during shipping and both of mine have arrived in perfect condition. This is an excellent product.
This is now my go to soup and stock pot. Also works great for pickling due to the large size. Solid construction and good thickness to the metal.
I picked up the 16 qt pot. It's definitely worth the money over the aluminum pots you pick up un other stores for almost the same price. And they look 10x better.
