Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of WMF Topstar 6 1/3-Quart Stainless Steel Stockpot with Lid
Customer Review: WMF Topstar cookware DOES break and DO NOT carry Lifetime Warranty
Summary: 1 Stars
We own a WMF Topstar set.
One handle broke off a couple of years ago, we contacted WMF and they replaced the casserole right away without asking a single question.
The same problem happened again recently (to another casserole in the set) but when we contacted WMF we were told to our surprise that their cookware only carries a 3-year warranty.
Apparently they've shorten their warranty because of the bad economy. We have no way to prove the Lifetime Warranty but we're sure the set came with one since it was the main reason we chose their products.
Buyer beware: WMF cookware does break and they do not honor the Lifetime Warranty. At least not anymore.
Description of WMF Topstar 6 1/3-Quart Stainless Steel Stockpot with Lid
Vegetable can be cooked with adding a very small amount of liquid, maybe also some fat. Water steam will condense at the lid flowing back into the cooked food. You may also use this pot for roasting/braising. Eating healthy, savouring consciously, feeling good... WMF Topstar System matches this life-style: a well-conceived system consisting of pots, inserts, accessories for healthy cooking. All components complement each other and can be combined with each other. Inserts sit tightly on the pot rims ensuring easy work. The pots can be stacked into each other to save space in the kitchen cabinet.German manufacturer WMF designed its Topstar cookware as a stackable, mix-and-match system to conserve storage space. Made of heavy 18/10 stainless steel polished to a mirror finish, Topstar cookware is beautiful and durable, intended to serve serious cooks for a lifetime. Aluminum disks sheathed in steel on the bottoms of the pots and pans conduct heat rapidly and uniformly and prevent warping. The cookware goes safely into ovens and under broilers. And with no inside handle rivets to trap food, it scrubs up hygienically. It's also dishwasher-safe. Like WMF's other stackable cookware system, the glass-lidded Accente Trend line, Topstar cookware carries a lifetime warranty against defects.
Tall and narrow to minimize evaporation, this stockpot is big enough to simmer about 1-1/2 gallons of stock, soup, stew, or pasta sauce. It's also roomy enough to poach a chicken or to prepare fruits or vegetables for canning. It's 8-1/2 inches in diameter and 7-1/4 inches high (without lid). Its two handles are shaped for comfortable, firm gripping. The stainless-steel lid fits snugly inside the pot's rim to hold in moisture and permit healthful, low-liquid cooking. The pot's broad rim facilitates dripless pouring. The Topstar 8-inch steamer insert (sold separately) for fish, vegetables, and meats, adds even more versatility to this kitchen workhorse. --Fred Brack
