🍝 Cook N Home 8 Quart Stainless Steel Multipots - Ideal Pasta Cooker and Steamer Set Review

Please do not buy from this company. This product liability lawsuit is pending in federal court. I followed the directions to the tee. I washed the pots + lids with hot soapy water and put them on medium heat to cook the noodles. I put the lid on, after 3 minutes I wanted to take it off and when I lifted the lid it exploded, the glass composite shattered and splattered everything around.

Attached is a photo of the water BEFORE I put the noodles in: Note that once the noodles are in the pot and the water overflows, the water will thicken and leave a sticky, burnt residue on the stovetop. I've been waiting to write this review because I've been experimenting with…

The only reason I didn't give this 4 star rating is because I hand washed the parts in hot soapy water as directed upon receipt. When I dried off with a towel. The towel was coated with a gray metallic residue. I hand washed again. Same result. After two treatments with slowly boiling water and three treatments with rinsing water, the gray residue was finally eliminated. The blocks have survived multiple washes in the dishwasher and are still bright and shiny. It was a plus. Knowing that it was
