Why It Stands Out
The Bergner 16.9 Qt Stock Pot combines large capacity with durable stainless steel construction and a heat-distributing tri-ply base.
Its 304 stainless steel construction provides a durable cooking vessel, while the tri-ply base incorporates an aluminum core to promote faster and more even heat distribution.
A magnetized stainless steel cap on the base makes the stockpot compatible with all stovetops, including induction, providing flexibility across different kitchen setups.
The large 16.9 qt capacity is particularly useful for preparing soups, stocks, stews, pasta, and other recipes in larger quantities.
For handling, the pot uses riveted stainless steel handles, while the matching stainless steel lid helps retain heat and moisture during cooking. The cookware is also dishwasher safe, simplifying cleanup after larger meals.
Care & Cleaning
Before First Use
The manufacturer recommends washing the stainless steel cookware in the dishwasher before initial use to remove possible manufacturing residue.
After the dishwasher cycle, remove and dry the pot and lid promptly with a clean cloth to help prevent mineral deposits and water spots. A dishwasher rinse aid may also help reduce spotting during the final rinse.
Hand Washing
-
Allow the stockpot to cool before cleaning.
-
Never place a hot pot directly under cold water.
-
Remove excess grease before washing.
-
Fill with warm water and add a mild dish detergent.
-
Soak for approximately 10 minutes for routine cleaning.
-
For stuck-on food, soak for approximately 1 hour.
-
Use nylon scrubbing pads for food residue and grease.
-
Use a sponge or soft cloth on exterior surfaces.
-
Do not use steel wool, steel scouring pads, oven cleaners, or chloride-containing detergents for routine cleaning.
Stubborn Stains
For tougher stains, the manufacturer recommends a stainless steel powdered cleanser with a woven plastic scrubber or non-abrasive sponge.
After cleaning, rinse the cookware thoroughly with clean, hot water.
Drying
Rinse with hot water and dry immediately after washing to help prevent fingerprints and water spots. A microfiber towel can be used to absorb remaining water from the stainless steel surface.
Important Use & Safety Information

-
Do not leave an empty pot on a heated burner.
