My mother has had her set of Farberware for well over 30 years, and has never had a problem. I've had mine for about 15, and I am now replacing this particular pot (the second pot in my set that needed replacement). The rim on my 8-qt and the one on my 2.5qt sauce pot have cracked. I had the saucepan replaced 10yrs ago via mail and the lifetime warranty.
I would replace it with the same pot, but I find that the plastic handles get too hot to hold bare-handed when I use the large burners on my gas stove. Also I'd like a glass lid to see when the water is boiling without removing the lid. So I'm in the market for something slightly different, but can't find anything as good for a similar cost.
HOWEVER, when I was offered the opportunity to replace my cookware, I kept this pot specifically because the size is wonderful for making large amounts of soup/chilis/etc. The pot itself is not too heavy to carry when empty, and it fits in most sinks for easy cleanup (I have a spaghetti pot that won't fit under my faucet). And it did last 15 years, being washed in the dishwasher and otherwise used and abused.
What makes this pot the best is the dimensions. It's not so wide as to take over the entire stove, but not so narrow that it's impossible to get a spoon inside and stir up a thick chili. The bottom is heavy enough to conduct heat and boil water quickly.
It's a great mid-priced pot. If it had metal handles, I'd use 1-click on it right now! I may purchase it again anyway, but I'm still undecided.

This is the one you use for all of your heavy-duty kitchen needs. Making chili for six? Steaming vegetables? Cooking rice? Making 1 lb. of pasta? Making a soup? Need to store leftovers in the fridge? You will use this pot for years...My mom has had hers for 35 years, I've had mine for 5. How many products do you buy nowadays that you expect to last that long? These pots are virtually indestructible and are beatiful besides. Solid, classic. It lives up to its name.Best Deals for FARBERWARE Classic Stainless Steel STOCKPOT - 8 Quart ~
Farberware 18/10 stainless steel cookware is a good line. I had this cookware at one time, and I can recommend it, especially for use on gas burners. Unlike Calphalon cookware, it can go in the dishwasher. However, to keep the finish gleaming, you might need to scrub the pots and pans frequently with cleanser and scouring pads. The 8-Quart Stockpot with Lid is a kitchen essential.Honest reviews on FARBERWARE Classic Stainless Steel STOCKPOT - 8 Quart ~
I tried this stockpot based on the reviews of other buyers on this site. Just as they claimed, the cooking quality is good, with a minimum of sticking (chili), and absolutely no burning. I have never had such success with stainless steel pots,or cast iron dutch ovens. Clean up was a snap. The price was right, too. I recommend it wholeheartedly.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for FARBERWARE Classic Stainless Steel STOCKPOT - 8 Quart ~
This stockpot is a good size for making soup, stew, pasta & chili. It can be used to make two very satisfactory portions or four normal portions (for normal eaters, unlike myself). It is not too large and unwieldy, especially loaded with food. It is simple to clean, conducts heat very well and a delight to use! An excellent value. Farberware also makes a nice pasta insert which is a great addition to this pot.
