how heavy is it for 3-quart?

Extremely light. It's basically for stocks and thin liquids, i.e. pasta, blanching vegetables, etc., so a thick-sided pot is not necessary and this thin-sided one is perfect and quite light. If you are looking for a thicker, heavier pot for long cooking food..thick soups, sauces, stews, etc., this is not the pot.

The heaviest part of this pot is the base and it meets very lightweight sides. I use it mostly for pasta because I like the fact that the lid strains. Full of water it weighs more, of course, but is manageable. I actually have two of these. Go ahead with it

Empty? It is great quality, so it is a bit heavy. Nothing like cast iron. We use it a lot and haven't had any problems.

It is very sturdy so not exactly featherweight but I have arthritis in my hands and have no trouble holding it with fod in it one handed. I love this pot. It cleans easily and the pour spout is great.

It is not as heavy as you might think, and the longer handle dissipates the heat well so balance is better. I have had the pot full of potatoes and could handle it. Plus the lid helps drain liquid easily.

It depends on the specific size of the roast. Yes, the unit can handle three pounds of food but the roast has to have roughly the same aspect ratio as the oven. If, for example, the roast is mostly circular in aspect ratio (like a ham), it either will not allow circulation around its edges or it'll stick above the water level or both. There is no question that a mostly 'tubular' shaped 3 lb roast will work.

It's a great quality pot with a solid bottom. I would say not too heavy but not light either. I use mine on an induction stove.

I put in 3 lbs and it's pretty full. I bought 6 not knowing so I have plenty of extra.

They're pretty heavy. The small 2qt pan weighs almost 2 lbs with out the lid. The lid adds another 12 oz. 3 qt is a little over 2 1/2 lbs without the lid, the 10 inch skillet is almost 3 lbs. I've had mine for 7+ years and I still use at least one almost daily. Love them.

I'd say the 3 liter weighs 3-4 pounds easy. Not particularly light. The old old Presto aluminum ones are probably lighter.

From the answers on the weight. This isn't stainless. NOT heavy enough.Stainless would be at least 3 pounds.

It is 4.5 quart and I like the quality it is made in China but it is very nice and at a good price. Hope this helps. ,Ron

I sent my skillet back so can't say for sure, but I don't think it is a six quart....probably more like 3.

2 qts. maybe a bit more depending on the substance. yes the depth is 3 inches.

I would say it is of a medium size/weight. Definitely not flimsy. Three pronged.

It's three quart. I bought 2 of them and one got left on the stove too long and lived! Better quality than I expected after months of daily use.

I really is 3 pounds - probably due to the fact that the inner core (which makes it heavier) retains the heat. The legs on the unit remain cool, but I would recommend using an oven mitt just to be sure.

It holds 3 quarts. But 2 comfortably, I would say, depending on what you're cooking. 3 quarts of liquid puts it within a half inch of the top of the pan.

Shipping weight is "3.4 lbs". The long handle creates a moment that can require a bit of muscle, but all solid pans do. Nothing to be a problem.

My 3 qt. pan weights 2 lbs. and the lid weights 14.25 oz. I presume the rest of the 5 lbs. is box and packing material.

Hi Rodney - Here is the scoop - the insert is a true 3 qt capacity however - if you intend to stir whatever you are cooking forget that!!! It will do 2 quarts of liquid just fine and one of the best things about this set is that clean ups are great! Hope this helps
