Just purchased this t fal non stick saucepan with lid and it has a great quality, came promptly and seller provided excellent customer service.. MUST HAVE +++Excelente olla. Se nota su robustez, solidez, y calidad al momento de usarla. Indica en una costado de la olla, en su parte interior la medida de las tazas.Pros: 1) I bought the 14-piece T-fal Excite set in purple about a year ago, but slowly realized that I needed other pieces in different sizes to truly feel like I had a complete set of cookware. The pots in the 14-piece set are small in capacity, so I bought this one to offer more flexibility. 2) Like the other pots in the Excite line, this one does exactly what it's advertised to do. 3) Very easy to clean.Cons: None so far.Summary: The T-fal Excite multi-piece set is okay for a beginner/intermediate level cook, but additional pieces like this one are needed for people who really like to cook.(I purchased this item for my own use with my own money, and was not given it for free. I will update the review if anything changes in the future or any problems arise.)I love this pot. I bought it for yogurt-making, to have a dedicated pot for heating the milk. This pot is perfect and seems very well made. When I washed it I was amazed to see the liquid detaching itself from the non-stick surface and cleaning it was very easy, even with stuck-on milk protein. I'm going to only be using plastic cooking utensils with this so hopefully the non-stick coating will prove durable. Love the blue color as well.I bought this in 2015 and already it's going to be thrown out. Only two years old and scratched already. I babied it with silicone and plastic utensils; I did NOT put it on high heat; when I reached the bottom of the pan, I GENTLY scraped the last bit with a plastic spoon. Also it has crazy screws in the top and in the handle. Some kind of star screw. My handle kept coming loose and I don't have a star-shaped screwdriver to tighten it so I tightened it with a steak knife but now the screw is useless, so the handle is loose also. Going back to stainless steel pots and pans. The BS about "My pan doesn't scratch" won't bother me anymore LOL.This pot came in one of the largest Amazon boxes ever, and it is just an 8" pot. It was down underneath a huge stack of brown paper. Since it was already wrapped in bubble wrap and underneath (not in the middle of) all the packing paper it seemed pointless.The pot itself seems fine. I was a little disappointed that you can't cook things on high.Have used 3 times to date. Loved the measurement levels on inside. Loved overall. Easy to clean and sturdy.This pan is a great value! I like the color and the nonstick properties, and it seems very sturdy. I would've given it 5 stars except for the steam vent in the lid - I prefer non-vented lids, especially for cooking rice. A small piece of transparent tape seals it nicely.Being a loyal T-Fal customer for the past 30 years, this is the worst quality saucepan I have ever purchased. I have used many T-Fal saucepans, but none of them like this one. The teflon coating is very thin, the whole saucepan is very light, and there is no thermo spot. If I have not purchased it from Amazon.ca directly, I would think this is a fake. Many years ago, T-Fal products were made in France. I know they are now made in China to save costs. Yet their prices are not any cheaper, only the quality is lowered. Too bad.Quality product, color as shown. would buy again
