Farberware's 3-quart “Glide” saucepan is a sturdy and versatile cookpot constructed from fast- and even-heating aluminum with a copper ceramic nonstick coating that's dishwasher-friendly and oven-safe to 350°F.

Perhaps the best part though is the shatter-resistant glass lid that has a built-in strainer — which works alongside the pot's pour lip on the side — eliminating the need for a separate colander.

There are actually two sets of straining holes on opposite sides of the lids, one large and one small. The smaller holes are great for when you need to strain something more slowly, or you want to reserve some of the pasta water and need to ensure it doesn't all fall out at once.

So yeah, it's a great-looking pot (I love the color of that copper ceramic coating) that simplifies pasta cooking and makes cleanup a breeze. What more you want?
