Jim the 40 inch pot is straight walled from the top to the bottom it does taper at the bottom about 1 inch to continue with the very bottom of pot. The pictures displayed make the pots look tapered but they are straight. I have the 60, 40 and 15 qt pot and am very happy with them

I am sorry but I am at work and don't recall, however, I would not purchase this pot. I had to return two, they replaced them due to pitting on the inside bottom of the pots and the replacement pitted too so I returned for a refund. Hope this helps.

im not sure of the grade, I can say it is higher than 308 stainless. its thickness is .020 or the same as 6 sheets of paper. , but is extremely resistant to bending. i have boiled water in mine over coals ( not open flame) many times. the bottom warped slightly , but no more than any pot of similar material and not enough to hinder the lid closing properly. i use mine as a wilderness kit and have been very pleased with it. slightly heavier than an aluminum but lasts much longer. hope this helped. if you have any more questions feel free to ask.

I bought this stock pot for two specific reasons :1) the stainless steel construction with an aluminum core (love this, as aluminum as been linked with certain types of early onset dementia) but is wonderful for even cooking,2) the welded AND riveted handles ( no breaking there).I have used this a multitude of times and I am quite pleased.!for such a great price, you cannot go wrong. I want to say it had the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, but do not quote me on that. All I know for certain, is that I have been more than pleased.

The pot is aluminum with a ceramic coating on the inside. I am however, getting some shipping of the ceramic coating; so I'm not too pleased with the product. Jim

The larger 20-qt stock pot by this same manufacturer and sold under the same "Professional Commercial Grade" description (http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Commercial-Stainless-Induction-Certified/dp/B003HMH60K/ref=pd_bxgy_k_img_y) is noted as being 18/8 stainless. While not proof that this one is, perhaps it's a safe bet for your purposes.

I have a 6qt Alclad stock pot with handles 14" sitting on bottom shelf, the opening width of the bottom shelf is 12 1/2 " so you would probably have to place it thru sideways and then place on stand.

This is not a straightforward answer because the lip, which measures about 1/4" horizontally is not flat, but tightly rolled and curved. The outside diameter is 7 5/8". The inside diameter, below the lip is about 7 1/8", but the bowl side is only plum for about 1/2" below the lip. These are great bowls. I have three 2 quart and two 4 qt sizes and use them everyday. These are the only stainless steal bowls that I like the shape and weight of and enjoy using. At this price order one with some other orders to avoid paying shipping. If it doesn't fit you use it will make a great gift. This is not a straightforward answer because the lip, which measures about 1/4" horizontally is not flat, but tightly rolled and curved.

I purchased three stands as well, and my pots are about 8" in diameter at the very bottom and the pots are angled. As long as your pot is tapered and smaller at the bottom, they shouldn't be cock-eyed. I haven't had a problem with that at all, and I've had them for a year now. I also got this one that another pot sits directly on top of, and it looks nice as well. Panacea 89164 Olde World Forged Pot Trivet, Black, 12-Inch

The side are pretty much straight up (90 degrees) from the bottom. there is no taper ,so I believe the inside and outside diameter is the same. We love ours, nice and heavy, solid feel.

Interesting, Like Glenn, I have two that I use to brew beer with, and I love them. These stock pots are HEAVY DUTY. When they stated it's "Professional Duty" they meant it. I use them outside on turkey fryer burners and they're huge. This is not something most people would stick on their stove top. Look closely at the dimensions, it's close to 20 inches tall and 20 inches in diameter. I would assume you're preparing multiple chickens at once? I bet you could fit two turkeys in there without much effort. If it fits your space, it's an incredible stock pot!

This pot is a bit under 6 3/4 inches high and 10 inches in diameter without the lid. I love this stockpot!

So, the LCS3 (which is currently priced at 22 and some change) is only a 10 inch diameter and has sloped sides measuring only at 1 3/4 in (might be 1 1/4 in I'm going off memory). The LK8S3 is 10.25 diameter and the sides are not sloped they are straight and measure 2 inches high. I just used the LK8S3 this morning for a fritata with eggs, red bell peppers, baby bellas, chopped kale, and sharp cheddar on top. I have a five person family and it is big enough to produce a yummy fritata that will feed us all. I start the meal on the stove top and finish in the oven. I like the high/straight sides of this dish because you could even bake a cake in it or a pot pie etc. I have a pan comparable to the LCS3 but it is smaller in diameter (I think an 8 or 9 in). Pans with a sloped side are great for sauting and performing cooking tasks that require moving the pan around to flip the food about. The LK8S3 is quite heavy so I could only assume the LCS3 "chef's" series skillet might be more pricey because it might be lighter weight for performing tasks that require flicking of the wrists and flipping without compromising the length of the diameter and the quality of the cast iron. Don't quote me on that, the last part is only an assumption. If you want an exact explanation I'm sure someone at Lodge would be happy to assist you. They probably have a contact link on their website. Hopefully I helped, I tried my best. Have a lovely day!

This is the best crock pot I have ever owned. Each bowl fits into base differently, depending on how deep the crock is for the varied sizes crock . Base measures 9.5 across, where the crock would sit. Each has a tapered pot not like a normal one pot, one heating element kind. Hope this answers your questions.

No, the inner chamber is not tapered to match the outer shape. The inner chamber is what I would describe as a perfect cylinder. The screen fits perfectly so as not to allow coffee grinds to pass through/around the screen. I am very picky about my coffee and I grind my beans fresh for every pot. This pot exceeded my expectations.

Inside the pot is just short of 16 inches. It's five and a quarter inches tall. From outside handle to handle its 20 and a half inches wide. Its a quality piece of equipment that will last forever. Very sturdy handles and its made in Korea, so its not cheap Chinese goods. It's pretty darn big but not real tall, so it does leave a pretty wide footprint. Hope this helps.
