Is the 7-inch measurement the inside diameter or is it taken from the rim/lip that extends out from the top? I have 7 1/4 inch pans.

Aaron, the inside diameter of the steamer at the top is 8". The outer Rim-to-Rim diameter is 9". The smallest pot it will steam on is the 7" or 7 1/4" as the bottom tapers down. Hope this helps.

So - I got my tape measure out to check for you. There are 3 steps which decrease on the bottom of the steamer from 8 to 6 inches - so I can use it on at least four different sizes of pan 6" through 8". The top opening measures 8" but has a heavy lip around it which helps keep it stable and is good to grab. I was thrilled when I got mine & realized this because it is expensive but great quality & justified price if it's so versatile. I use mine everyday & I've had it little more than a year & it looks like new.

I'm not certain where the 7-inch measurement is from. I just measured my piece and on the outside, the smallest measurement I found was 6 1/2 inches. The actual lip on the top is well over 9 inches. The bottom has a number of "step ups" from the 6 1/2 inches to the widest, from that, I think you should be just fine with a 7 1/4 inch pan.

The inner lip fits 10 inch pan, perfectly....Outer edge is slighty wider, but does not affect fit.

Measuring on the inside of the pan, from the bottom to the top of the rim is 3".

The pan I ordered was described as a 7.9 inch pan. That's the diameter measured from the widest point.

Mine is 4" from bottom of inside pan to very top of inside pan, not sure if our pans are the same as I see different answers from other owners, hope this helps

Once you take out the drip "pan" at the bottom, it measured 7" I hope this helps.

The pan has a lip/ridge at the top edge that is 8.4" x 8.4" from edge to edge. If you flip the pan over, the bottom edge is actually 7" x 7". The top of the pan, without the top edge lip/ridge is 7.5" x 7.5". This is the best pan of this size I've ever owned. I have had it for years now. Glad I bought it.

From the rim of the pot to the end of the handle measure just a tiny bit shy of 7 1/2".

I measured mine and it's the diameter of the pan itself. The flat cooking surface is smaller.

Jerry, we ordered the 6" and 8" pans. They actually measure 6-3/8" and 8-1/2" inside of lip to inside of lip. Those happen to be the same dimensions as the openings on the range top. Outside lip to outside lip of the pans measures 7-1/2" and 9-3/4" respectively. Hope this helps. R.

7 and 3/4 inches diameter on the outside at the bottom. Maybe slightly wider at the inside bottom since it slopes up and out from the base. Nice pan.

Hi Karen It is about 7/8 of an inch,measured from the inside. Hope this helps?

For the 2 qt. pan the interior diameter is 7 1/2, to the exterior diameter 8 inches. the lid sits into the the differential; for the 4 qt. pan the diameter is 8 inside and 8 1/2" to outer edge. Hope this helps.

The pan is stamped as 11 long x 7 wide x 1.5 inches deep and that is correct except the sides flare out. At the bottom of the pan the inside dimensions are 6-1/4" by 10-1/4".

There are two inside dimensions that I measured. The pan is tapered from top to bottom. The top dimension is 19 1/2" x 11 5/8"and the bottom dimension is 17 3/8" x 9 3/8". Hope this helps you.Gin R.

I bought an 8-inch version, so I can only give dimensions for that, but it might be helpful:True outside diam = 8" (max measurable diam of entire lid)Outside diam of metal rim that extends down = 7-3/4" (so 1/4" less than the overall diam); rim extends down

Pamela.The pan measures 5 5/8" inside diameter at the top and is 3 1/2" deep. We just love ours.
