I could not tell from the product image but the pot is actually very shiny both inside and out. (I thought it had frosted outer surface.) It is also a very light-weight pot.
I am using it to cook soup, rice, stew, etc. and it just works perfect. As it is stated in the product features, this pot heats very quickly and it is easy to clean. To my surprise, the product package had a pitcture of Lidia Bastianich (my favorite Italian cooking show hostess), meaning she recommends it too.
Lastly, the price was good so I am very happy with this pot!
UPDATE on 1/24/2011
I am still using this pot!
There are tons of wears from 3 years daily use but it is just doing great.
I was so right about this pot.

Where has this pan been all my life? Easy to clean (dishwasher safe also) ..heats up quickly and evenly..lid is just the right weight and is glass so you can watch what you are cooking...Great size for just about anything. I have made everything from a potfull of jambalya to corn on the cob and this pan has made me look like I know what I am doing.
Perfect gift at a great price. Buy this as a nice treat for yourself...you won't be disappointed.

Ok, I use this pan to make the most divine goat milk fudge from scratch, on a glass top stove...not an easy feat for sure. A decadently smooth batch with perfect set is all about the pan, even temperatures, and lots of stirring. (Lots and lots of Stirring!)
I have tried quite a few stainless steel pots/pans; some very expensive some mid-range, and none have produced results as nice as this pan.
First- this pan's curved sides and attachment angle to the bottom make for easier stirring with less hand fatigue and also eliminates small missed stir area edges like on straight sided pans. This is important because sugar crystal buildup happens where your spoon tip can't reach or get into on every stir swipe and the crystals ruin the smoothness of the fudge.
Second- the bottom heats completely even (on my stove anyway) and distributes the heat up the sides evenly too. Just as important, once removed from the heating element the pan cools quicker than other pans and this makes for better incorporation of added ingredients with a thicker set up.
This pan is light and has a very smooth bottom. The brand name imprint on the bottom doesn't affect the smoothness, like on other stainless steel pans. As I'm stirring in one direction, I can easily spin the pan in the opposite direction on my glass top. It's balanced well, stays in place while I'm doing this, and glides effortlessly.
Yeah, I know... not supposed to spin or slide pans on glass cook tops and normally I don't.
Third- Because of the lighter weight of this pan, as compared to other stainless steel, it's easier to pour the fudge out into the awaiting pans. This is never an easy thing to do, but the pan's lighter weight is helpful, especially with a large batch of fudge. The tapered rim also helps for a smooth pour.
Fourth- it cleans up like a dream.
