Update.
These pots are ****. Do not buy.
Came with dents, very thin, and I suspect not "18/10" stainless as advertised.
I am in the process of trying to get a refund.
Would the thin walls of these pots be a problem if I were thinking of putting an element in it or using an over the side element rather than using gas? Dents don't bother me so much although that is a bit dodgy I guess.
