Winco BAM-3.5 Bain Maries, 3.5-Quart, Medium, Stainless Steel

It is larger than I thought, but it works very well with the Chinois to strain sauces. The height is necessary to get the whole Chinois down into it. Is well made and a quality thickness on the steel.

I use it as a scrap clay bucket while making pottery. Works well.

Winco 1.25 qt lid cover on small pots fits well. Very solid quality & in fridge the pot firs on each other with this cover. The way they make it very convenient. Affordable price and it has weight too.

Size and light weight perfect for what I’m using it for. Attractive, shiny stainless steel.

Ultimately they are nice pots. They seem like good quality stainless and I have not noticed any rusting. My only complaint is that 1 of the 2 pots in the pack came with some thick corrosion looking stuff on the rim, not in the pot! It is only on the rolled rim. See video to understand what I mean.

FORTUNATE TO FIND THIS AS CANS TODAY ARE SMALL NOT THE LARGER ONES USED TO MAKE THE STOVE TOP STEAMED BROWN BREAD. HOWEVER THIS IS MUCH MORE FUNCTIONAL FOR MAKING RICE PUDDINGS SMALL CAKES . THE SMALL CIRCULAR DESIGN LEADS TO A NON CONVENTIONAL JELLY ROLL. AS THE ROUND CAKE CAN BE SLICED AND FILLING OF CHOICE CAN BE SPREAD. CAKE WILL STAND IF TOP SLICE IS REMOVED ALLOWING THE JELLY ROLL TO STAND WHEN TURNED OVEER AS BASE. BATTER BREADS CAN BE ADAPTED. REMEMBER LESS LIQUIDS GO INTO STEAM COOK. STUDY BROWN BREAD RECIPES.

I actually use this as a planter for some indoor plant. I have a few plastic pots that fit perfectly. It looks sleek, waterproof and durable. It can also be used as a small garbage can.

I use the bucket next to my sink for my kitchen compost waste, good size for stuff before I walk it to the compost pile

This is a nice product overall. My complaint is that it is advertised as 8.25 quarts, but in reality it holds less than 6 quarts. Maybe miss labeled? According to Winco the measurements of this pot, makes it a Bam-6. But it is impossible to get anywhere with Amazon. So frustrating.

One thing to note - I did not realize this when I bought it - is that the whole thing is so tall (ie. deep) that regular hand-food-processor / mixer paddles or dough hooks do NOT reach anywhere near the bottom. But that's my mistake. The product is excellent quality.

several people complain about the sticker leaving residue. use an oil based spray (WD-40) ant it will soak In and remove residue in a few wipes otherwise these have worked fine. used for boiling chemicals of DIY industrial process. ammonium compounds, dye's, nickel acetate, phosphoric acid. (anodizing aluminum and chemplate/phosphate steels) Defiantly made of stainless steel! material is defiantly a non magnetic Stainless steel. again people have said it "peels off" and is not stainless underneath but what I received this is defiantly not the case! the metal is non magnetic (aka no iron in the core) and it would be FAR more expensive to laminate or electroplate materials together after forming the product. its defiantly thin and will bow on the bottom if you place on a stovetop or hotplate in my case) It comes back to normal when cooled. you get what you pay for here and I am completely happy

This size 6-Quart is a PERFECT FIT for the 4.5Q to fit into!

Wish it was of a thicker gauge. The lid that couples with it feels substantial, however this pot feels too light-weight.
