Been searching for a one-handed pot to pair with my rivetless stainless steel frying pan and this fits the bill perfect. Used mine for instant noodles, soups, braises, and the occasional deep fry.

ATL was $36.94 AFAIK so this is a fairly good price. Now an all time low!

18cm version also available for $35.87.

Pros:

  • Rivetless
  • Comes with two spouts for easy pouring
  • Made of stainless steel instead of aluminium
  • Fairly lightweight (~490 grams) & boils water quickly
  • Hammered for increased resistance to deformation
  • Claims to be compatible with induction stoves
  • Dishwasher safe
  • Made in Japan

Cons:

  • Handle can get pretty hot after sitting on the burner for some time
  • You have to get a lid separately
  • Thin walls and bottom may cause food to burn quickly if you're not attentive.

    • Trust me, you don't want to know ๐Ÿ˜

    • Making the batter

  • been using my 2-pieces Yukihara pots from costco for years, they have been going strong
    only difference i think was the one I got has a wooden handle

  • the lid is $33

    • Actually you can get replacement lids for as low as ~$12 and probably even cheaper if you search on Aliexpress / Temu / your local OP shop. I just used an old lid sitting around in my kitchen and it fits perfect!

    whatโ€™s so special about this pot ? looks like a saucepan which is also single handed ?

    • +1

      My old pot had riveted handles which came loose over time and caused its contents to leak, leaving a patch of dark brownish residue around the handle which is difficult to clean. I didn't want the residue to get back into my food so I opted for welded handles this time around.

      • Absolutely, I agree with you. On that note, I have a scanpan set which we use daily and chuck in the dishwasher as well. Itโ€™s going strong even after 10+ years of regular use.
        But with all other cheapos the rivets become loose as you have mentioned. I think itโ€™s the quality and the brand which we have to pay attention as they are not the same.

    • seems like "yukihira pot" is just japanese for saucepan

  • Just bear in mind not ALL steel products from Japan is high quality..this utensil seems to have a very thin steel walls and bottom or at least looks like it ..I maybe wrong but if I am not.. will heat extremely fast and will not retain heat ..which means you will need to constantly play with the heat or whatever you are cooking burns to a cinder..if it suits your cooking needs it is a bargain for a large pan ..states it is 7 litres/kg capacity .. but there is a reason why heavy bottom pans are preferred by chefs ..that obviously costs a bit more and generally has a copper core.. the price is good..no it is great actually for a 7 litre high walled all stainless steel pan from anywhere

    • I can confirm that the walls and the bottom of this pot are very thin. It heats water fairly fast and I have been boiling all manners of things in it on the highest heat setting for a few months now. Never burned anything in the pot, so I guess it's more of a skill issue?

      • +4

        Not really .. it is more of a use case issue .. certain dishes take time certain dishes do not .. this pan is suitable for the latter ..Boiling will work fine.. pasta will burn as will curries as will any pan fried dishes ..making soup ? perfectly fine for it

        • I still maintain that's a skill issue. You need to adapt your cooking times and heat levels based on your cooking implement! I don't often cook pasta but have made plenty of curries and stews with thick gravies and have yet to burn anything. It's all about knowing when to stir, when you need to add water, and when to lower the temperature and when to take the pot off the heat. And making pan fried dishes in a pot is just madness…

      the price is good..no it is great actually for a 7 litre high walled all stainless steel pan from anywhere

      Where are you getting 7 Litre from?

      It states that the capacity is 2.4 Litres in numerous places through the listing:

      Material Stainless Steel
      Finish type Hammered
      Brand Arnest
      Colour Silver
      Capacity 2.4 Litres

      Inner dimensions (approx.): 7.9 inches (20 cm).
      Depth (approx.): 3.3 inches (8.5 cm).
      Full capacity (approximate): 0.6 gal (2.4 L)

      If you go by the dimensions and treat it as cylinder, which it is not, since the bottom curves inward and thus reduces volume, it is still way short of 7 Litres.
      Volume of a round pot (cylinder) with the formula:
      ๐‘‰ = ๐œ‹ ๐‘Ÿ2 โ„Ž
      Where:
      ๐‘Ÿ = radius = half the diameter of 20cm = 10cm
      โ„Ž = height (depth) = 8.5cm
      Volume = 2673.1 cubic cm = 2.67Litres

  • I bought similar like this from Kappabashi when I was in Tokyo months ago.

    Be careful if a one-armed criminal breaks into your apartment and you get framed for murder.

    You might have to become a fugitive to prove your innocence.

  • Does water or milk burn on the walls of the pan? Usually happens with thin pans

    • +1

      With wide burners yes, it does start to get dry and stick to the sides at high heat.

  • Can confirm will work on induction stove (IKEA ones). Perfect for instant noodles and boiling eggs.
