Ho What is the guage of the pot and are the handles riveted on?

I can't tell you the gauge, but it's got a nice thick bottom and the whole thing is of good quality. Nothing flimsy. Reinforced handles on pot are reinforced and riveted. Lid also riveted. Everything is nicely ground w no rough edges. I bought this a couple of years ago i'm thinking? I use it a lot and even cook on top of the woodstove with it. Love it. No problems. It was a good buy. It is China made, but not cheap.

It is 1mm thick stainless steel (between 19 and 20 gauge). The bottom is 5mm of aluminum surrounded by 1mm stainless. The handles on the 32 Quart and up are riveted and spot welded, but I think they may only be spot welded on the smaller sizes.

Hi, i am not sure what the gauge is. Its thick and stout. I used the 40 qt to brew beer and have just upgraded to the 80 qt. They are both the same gauge. The handles are riveted. Its a great pot. Very strong

I'm not sure what the guage is but the pot is heavy and solid. The handles are riveted. I've brewed with this pot now about a dozen times and am very happy with it. No appreciabe wear and it's still as solid as the day I got it. It's a good buy.

Like the others have stated, riveted handles that are quite sturdy, the stainless is also quite heavy, I am quite happy with this pot, when mine came the cover handle was disconnected from the spot welds but I liked the pot so much I took it to a local welding shop and had it reattached.

On the bottom of the Pot it sats Winware Stainless Steel followed by SST 16 and yes, the handles are riveted on. However, it is not totally stainless. It is a joy to cook with it and a little bit of stain left on it after cooking a pot full of whatever I cook is okay with me. I enjoy using the pot.

Just checked mine. 36 quart purchased July 2015. The handles are indeed welded, but the lid is flat, not domed as show in the photo.

Well, I have the pot right in front of me and I'm not sure. There are some indentations around the edge of the handles that would make me think they are riveted, but the indentations don't go all the way through. The inside is completely smooth. It looks like the side handles are one piece with a base plate giving them lots of strength where they are attached. The lid handle appears to either be welded or riveted like the side handles but without the base plate.

This pot does NOT have any rivets or screws. All of the handles are tack welded. I posted this in a previous review for this stock pot with some other helpful information. The inside is ground to a smooth finish.

Bear in mind I may be off an 1/8 or so because I only had a tape measure but I measured 13" diameter (handles not included), 40" circumference and 12" height... It's pretty darn large pot and heavy... Hope that helps!!

at a glance they look fused on, with no visible screws/ bolts/ rivets either on the handle or inside...but with a closer look, you can see where they've been riveted to the pot (you can see the subtle indentations on the inside of the pan if you look closely). but the grip feels solid when i use the pot.

No - nothing exposed inside. Just straight, good steel. The handles seem to be attached with 10 small rivets on the outside. I've filled it with water and felt little or no give when lifting the pot.

The handles are spot welded on the outside of the pot. Nothing is exposed on the inside of the pot.

Yes - there are solid rivet heads on the inside for the handles. The rest of the inside of the pot is smooth. It's a good quality pot and very easy to clean and sterilize.

Handles look to be riveted; I have two pots and both are such. However, the Winco brand is a heavier pot with a heavier bottom for the same price.

Mine are riveted - bought June 2011. I've lifted, moved, and poured using the handles with ~8 gallons several times with no issues.

No, the handles are not riveted. They are welded in place and the weld appears to be fairly well done. This is true for the handles on the side as well as on the lid.

Yes, four per handle. It's an excellent pot, heavy so I'm grateful for the rivets. Never a problem with cleaning.

there are no screws or rivets or anything inside the pot where the handles are attached. It's totally smooth inside.

I'm sorry I'm unable to answer your question because I gave the cooking pot set to my daughter. When I visited her, she was using it often, and I will say it's heavy duty, yet polished and attractive. I would recommend it.

Stainless steel. I will say that the main pot cracked neat the handle. Beware.

The handles are screwed on, this is the second pot we've gotten the first have an older type non-stick surface and gave it up after years of heavy use. We had never had a problem with the screws loosening.
