ARC 12 Quart Aluminum Tamale Steamer Pot, Crab Pot Stock Pot with Steamer tube for Seafood Crawfish Crab Vegetable with Rivet Handle, Silver

I use it a lot when I’m making Hispanic food specially tamales. And it’s really good for the price that I paid it. Get the job done. And it’s a quick fix. I think the size is good. Functionality I think it approves. The steaming qualities actually really good and it’s surprising. If for a good quality, I think it could be just a little better but it gets the job done 10 out of 10.

This tamale pot is awesome, it has a a vent pole in the center that low the tamales to cook evenly. I am so happy with this purchase.June Mazmanian

Purchased 32 quart pot in May of 2022 to steam crabs. Did not start crabbing until this year so did not use pot until June of 2023. Pot imploded after first and only use, and of course ARC would not give me any reimbursement (or explanation of failure) because their warranty lasts only for 30 days after purchase. Very disappointed with product and customer service. Buyer beware! Thank you.Update - vendor offered me a refund or replacement, so I changed the rating from 1 to 4.

Great quality larger size makes making lots easier

This stock pot holds a lot of chowder or whatever else you feel like putting in it! It's very easy to clean and it's as light as a feather. I would definitely purchase from this company again even though the product was produced in China according to the sticker on it. Still a very good product.

Cheap flimsy unfinished aluminum. Dangerous.Seriously don't buy itCost 15 bucks to send backSave your money

This is a great pot. I love the ridge around the bottom to hold the steaming shelf on. So easy to use and clean. I used this for tamales.

The pot did good at steaming the food. Unfortunately once I clean it didn't look the same. It's a shame it looks this bad after one use.
