Q: Is this 18/0 stainless? Or does it have nickel?
A: Thank you for your inquiry. Currently, the only line of cookware which is 18/10 stainless is the French Classic. All other current stainless-steel cookware is 18/0 which is also called Premium Stainless Steel. This means that neither performance, quality, nor appearance would be compromised in anyway. I hope this helps clear everything up for you.

Q: Has anyone experienced the inside developing rust pitmarks on the bottom? That happened to me with a different brand after the first use.
A: JO, this should not happen with proper use and cleaning and is not a known issue regarding this Cuisinart product. However, if you encounter stains from calcium in your water, rest assured this is from a harmless deposit and can be removed with a little warm vinegar. Certain foods such as pasta or oatmeal may leave a light residue or cloudy appearance. This can be easily removed with any nonabrasive cleaning product. Hope this helps!
