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.

Quality

It's an excellent pot to cook with, holds heat good and is easy to clean.

Love using this pot. Nothing sticks to it; easy clean up. Have had for a few months now; still looks like new.

Excelente producto,acabado perfecto,buena calidad,durable

While we do love our dutch ovens, cooking with them is always a workout because they're so darn heavy. The "Perfect Pot" has pretty much replaced all our heavier cookware. Much to love about this thing. First, it's easy to move between oven and stovetop, so it's ready for multi-stage cooks.The ceramic coating works as advertised (and much like the Always Pan, which is another favorite from Our Place that we use daily). We've used the Perfect Pot for multiple cooks. Boiling pasta: the lip on the pot made it convenient to pour out hot water. We could also then finish a cacio e pepe in the same pot. Reheating pasta in it led to little to no stuck-on food, and all it took was soaking for a few minutes to get the few strands that were stuck out.Oven use is good too. We roasted a chicken in it that turned out beautifully. Easy to clean (none of the mess involved in gingerly removing a flat pan with grease spilling over).The third cook we were impressed by was a biryani. The lid makes it easy to get the right seal to lock all the flavors in, and the 5.5 quart size is the right size to cook for a large gathering. Our biryani fed four adults and two kids (with lots leftover to enjoy).We were worried about how the beautiful, beautiful exterior would handle oven heat, but it handled heat with elan. One of those rare things that is both beautiful and tough!If you're tired of getting a workout every time you use your dutch oven, this is just the thing for you!
