Cookware That Excels in Both Safety and Efficiency
I recently ordered the Dalstrong 3 qt. Oberon Series Non-stick pot and I could not have been more pleased with my purchase. Immediately upon opening the box you realize that you have received something of not just high quality and beauty, but a product that has also obviously been manufactured and sent with great pride. As you slide the product out of it’s shipping box, the pieces are wrapped inside a gold-logoed parchement paper. Then as you open the paper, both the stainless steel pot and it’s glass lid are further protected by white satin drawstring bags. (The pieces have been secured with recyclable cardboard packaging to hold them in place.) At 7.2 lbs., you will feel the heft of the quality materials the moment you unpack each piece.
I try very hard to buy high quality and healthy food for my family, so I want to make sure that whatever I choose to use to prepare that food in doesn’t negate the effort. It is well known that stainless steel cookware preserves the food’s nutrition, taste, and color and a few of the reasons that I personally choose this over cheaper coated aluminum pans. If I need to use a pan with non-stick coating to prepare that food, I look for cookware that specifically does not use PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic acid) or PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) in the making of it’s product. PFOA is a popular man-made chemical used in the manufacture of some non-stick coatings that lasts a long time in the environment and in people when exposed to it over a period of time. It has been shown to be disease causing and based on how often I use my pans to cook our food, it is not something that I want to use around my family. PTFE nonstick coatings have been known to cause temporary flulike symptoms in humans. Dalstrong’s commitment to not using these toxic materials in the making of their products is a main reason I choose their products over ones that use cheaper, less discriminating material alternatives.
The 3-ply heavy gauge stainless steel of this pot heats up quickly and does an excellent job of evenly heating the food. Because I often use this size pot to prepare soups and gravies, I like that the it has high walls to prevent splashing onto the stove as I cook. It also has a flared lip/edge design to help with drip free pouring when transferring food from the pan to a bowl or storage container. Another feature I like is the extra long handle, which is secured tightly to the pot with one rivet on each side of the handle. This provides a very stable feel as one uses the pan. The handle is heat resistant, evenly disperses heat, cools down quickly and has a very comfortable grip. The end of the handle is also branded with the Dalstrong logo.
The tempered glass lid that comes with the pot gives a perfect precision fit, and a tight seal. It has a stainless steel lid knob that is also branded with the Dalstrong logo and a stainless steel rimmed steam vent hole to prevent the pan from rattling during the cooking process and/or food from boiling over.
The non-stick coating has a high gloss, and a luxurious look and feel. I have found it to be dishwasher safe and it seems to be able to stand up to use of metal utensils while cooking. As expected, it provides outstanding nonstick/release of food.
I did a short video while using the pot so the you can see for yourself how well this cookware looks and performs. I truly would not hesitate to recommend this product to anyone who appreciates having the best for the kitchen.
