Query: QUALITY Issues

This Pot is heavily & deeply grooved inside which translates to a quick & dirty finishing/polishing job on the part of Calphalon. You can feel the grooves with your fingers easily and it is as if the company did not fully smooth it out.I own several Hard-Ano pans from Calphalon and all are nearly mirror smooth in surface, not this one.This pot is huge and inexpensive..39.99 -w- free shipping.But I feel again disappointed to see that Calphalon has decided to undermine their own Brand Name and quality integrity.Calphalon used to make great cookware, but not in these new China made, low end models.I think i will keep this as i do not plan on using it too often, it is more a "special use" pot. And for the money it is OK.But if you are using the stock pot often and see it as an integral part of your kitchen I strongly encourage you to get something else like All-Clad...MC2.
