Does anyone happen to know the how tall the 12 Qt Stock Pot is. I have not purcahsed one yet and I have a customer that would like it but she wants to know the height. I have a call into customer support but I am waiting for a call back.

Oh - this is my first post - new consultant as of 3/16/07.:)
 
I'm guessing about a foot tall or so. My 2nd hostess ordered this as one of her half off items. She returned it because it is coated with teflon and she "doesn't do" Teflon. They dont' really mention the Teflon coating in the catalog.

Congrats on becoming a consultant - I signed 1/21!! :)

It's not coated with Teflon. It's DuPont Autograph2. There's actually a big difference. It's part of the Executive Line, which has the coating inside and out. How did she miss that?

Thanks for the input. The customer decided to try it out regardless of height. I actually can't wait to purcashe the 12 Qt, you can't find a quality pot in regular stores. I have several people that have inquired about it. I think it would be a great addition for any kitchen
 
I have it and it's HUGE... But I can cook things like soups and spegatti sauce in it without it splashing all over my oven it's really nice!! I made corn on the cob in it last night~
