Our Place Perfect Pot - 5.5 Qt. Nonstick Ceramic Sauce Pan with Lid | Versatile Cookware for Stovetop and Oven | Steam, Bake, Braise, Roast | PTFE and PFOA-Free | Toxin-Free, Easy to Clean | Spice

My pot arrived with a minor cosmetic defect (unevenness in the thickness of the rim). I contacted the Our Place customer service team through Amazon, and their representative was incredibly responsive, pleasant, and efficient. She was quick to fix the issue for me and made it right. I was truly delighted with their exceptional customer service! Prior to ordering this pot, I already had a 12” Lavender-coloured Always Pan and also the Griddle Pan in Lavender, as well. After using the Always Pan for a while, I decided to get a Perfect Pot, as well…But I spent some time deliberating on the colour. (Yes, the colour was that important to me.) Should I keep it cohesive with the Lavender theme? Or could I venture out with a different colour to mix it up a bit? I wasn’t sure how two different colours would look together on my cooktop, but I finally went with the Blue Salt. (The Sage and Spice were contenders, but I thought the Blue Salt would look better with the Lavender). The Blue Salt pot is absolutely beautiful! I love the size - It’s a little smaller than I was expecting, but in a more manageable way. The pot stays on my cooktop (as my cupboards are too full with other stuff)…and that’s just fine because the design of the pot is so visually attractive and the colour is just gorgeous. The colour complements my Lavender Always Pan (which also stays out on my stovetop) just beautifully and they both look really nice displayed together. I’m so pleased with my choice. In terms of usage, I love how lightweight this pot is! Even full of pasta/potatoes and water, it’s surprisingly light for me to easily carry over to my sink to pour out the excess water. The built-in strainer lid makes it so easy for me to pour out the hot water, as well. The pot cleans up easily, particularly since the ceramic is non-stick. One thing I’m not sure about, though, is that the instructions say to only use this pot on low-to-medium heat on the stovetop in order to preserve the nonstick. As an impatient cook who has always cranked my stove up to high heat in the past, I find this to be a bit of an annoyance and uncertainty for me. I’m a little torn. So far, I’ve used it only on Medium heat per the instructions….Though if I’m boiling water, I have to crank it up to High…..Right? I hope that’s okay…I’m guessing I’m eventually going to have to give in and crank it up without water inside to sear meat, etc…but I haven’t gotten there yet. I’m still a bit tentative because of the confusing instructions…For this reason, I’d say that this pot won’t replace your ridiculously heavy enamel Dutch oven, which is meant for very high heat…But the lighter weight and quick heat distribution are definitely selling points for this pot. Other than that, I’m loving this pot. I also ordered a pair of the Hot Grips (in Lavender) directly from the Our Place website (which was cheaper than the ones listed on Amazon)…and while the Hot Grips were still on the expensive side for what they are, I’m still glad I got them as they make it so much easier for me to grip the handles of my Our Place cookware…and when I flip the grips upside-down, the grips are big enough to “just” cover the edge of the lid, which helps to keep it in place as I pour out the hot water. The only thing I don’t like about the Hot Grips is that I can’t grip the knobs on the pot lids with them…That’s disappointing since those knobs can get hot! This Our Place Perfect Pot comes with a wooden spoon that was specifically designed for this pot, and for the record, I ordered this pot when it was on sale for $145 CAD. Note: I was confused with the photos of some of the other reviews on here. Some other reviewers’ photos suggest that they got a Roasting Rack (the grey insert with the holes in it that can also be used for steaming) included with their pot….And I think they might have…I’ve seen this type of inconsistency in other Our Place product reviews on Amazon before. I noticed a similar issue with my Griddle Pan - Based on the reviews, some colours for certain products seemed to have come with additional accessories included (e.g., the oven mat that only came with SOME Griddle Pans) while others did not…but for presumably the same price. I don’t know why Our Place does this. It can be misleading and confusing and disappointing…especially for anyone browsing through users’ photos and reading the reviews on here! For anyone who is interested, my Blue Salt Perfect Pot did NOT come with the Roasting Rack insert that you see in some people’s photos. I ended up buying one separately through the Our Place website (even though it was definitely over-priced). I haven’t used it yet, but it fits perfectly inside this pot. For the record, this pot ONLY came with the pot, the lid, and a wooden spoon. Everything else you have to buy separately and pay extra for.

I had long admired this pot having previously purchased the Our Place griddle which I love. I was in two minds over which size to go for and eventually plumped for the larger one in Spice. I have to say I was taken aback by quite how big it was (I should really have gone for the smaller one, but convinced myself the versatility made the large pot the sensible choice) There's no doubt it's a statement piece - it looks beautiful, like something fashioned in Marrakech. As with all Our Place products, the quality and the lightness are what sets it apart. It looks like it should be heavy, yet it's light enough to easily lift with one hand. Talking of ease, it's so easy to clean. The twin option spout is a clever and very useful idea. My only complaint, it could be about 25% smaller. That would have been perfect. Oh, and by the way, it's great for slow-cooking stews!

Excelente producto,acabado perfecto,buena calidad,durable

Perfect pot for the perfect cook! High quality, non-stick durable piece of kitchen equipment. A must for ease of use and heat distribution. WEsat to keep clean and value for money. Ideal size for storage. lots of ideas for soups, casseroles and I am going to try making bread in mine...Enjoy. Thanks, Liz

This pot is beautiful, well designed and amazingly lightweight. I have only used it for one of my favourite dishes; to braise the meat on the stovetop, and then in the oven with veggies in the pot for a slow cook. Then it was reheated a few times on low temperature when I wanted to dish up more. The wooden spoon that comes with it has grooves on the handle to sit on the edges of the pot. It washed up like a dream. The accompanying leaflet was well laid out, and gave clear information about what to do and not do. Couldn't be happier, and I might just buy its companion pot.
