Gourmet chefs will tell you that any great soup or stew starts with a great slow-cooking stockpot. Anolon Advanced engineers have created their 4.5-quart stockpot with that essential thought in mind. In fact, like all Anolon Advanced pans it uses the latest Teflon innovation: DuPont's Autograph 2. Oven-safe to 400 degrees, non-stick Teflon covers the pot inside and out, and has proven durable enough to withstand the rigors of commercial cooking establishments. And as many gourmet chefs will testify, when meal-time is over, cleaning non-stick pots has never been easier. A proven performer even over the hottest flames, this classic 8-quart stockpot features a SureGrip handle engineered from stainless steel and tough, non-slip silicon rubber. The handle's sure-handed ergonomic design allows for safe, easy handling. Its clear glass dome lid allows you to keep an eye on the soup. Because confidence, quality, and style are the keystones of success when it comes to cookware, all Anolon pans are backed by a lifetime warranty.
In 1987, the largest cookware company in the U.S. decided to launch Anolon gourmet cookware. The young company manufactured pans that combined a hard-anodized surface with a tough non-stick coating. The result was an exceptionally durable non-stick pan. In 2003, Anolon expanded its product lines by introducing Anolon Advanced. The new line featured improvements like the patented SureGrip handle made of silicone and stainless steel, and non-stick DuPont Autograph2 on inner and outer surfaces. Innovations such as these propelled Anolon to the forefront of the market. Anolon is based in Vallejo, Calif., and is dedicated to creating superior gourmet cookware for discriminating home chefs. Quality, durability, and meticulous attention to detail are the keystones of success that make Anolon a recognized industry leader
