I just bought two Tramontina items at Costco that I am pleased with. Both
are items I do not use very often so do not have to be of the highest
quality. This does not imply that they are low quality. Both items in
fact seem to be of quite high quality, and for the price superlative
quality.

A two burner griddle $20 and a stainless steel 12 qt pot (disk bottom)
also about $20. The stainless steel pot has a nifty lock on type pasta
strainer, steaming basket and glass lid (I do not like the glass lid
because it probably will not last long). I used the pot to boil down my
tomato harvest and despite being cooked down for a long time I had no
scorching, so heat distribution is very good.
