Is there a lid for the pot, or is the skillet good enough? and does it fold securely or can the 2 parts separate easily?

The skillet serves as the lit for the pot and works quite well. The skillet and pot will separate with a moderate bump to the pot or if the skillet handle is bumped. The handles fold and stay either closed or open quite well.

The skillet is good enough for the lid..it does fold securely. They can come apart easily, however the bag it comes with will prevent this from becoming a problem.

Skillet is lid, doesn't secure to pot. Comes with orange, stretchy-mesh, drawstring sack.

I have a large cast iron skillet, another small one, and 5 skillets ranging in size. Along with 6 hooks holding basic utensils for cooking. All are held great without any bending or stress on the unit. The cast iron will bend it if placed on the front of the dome so I have it hanging in the back.

the lid has 3 pieces that are removable without tools. It is very easy to clean.

I don't know where you are getting the "fold" part, but the not of the unit folds at all. It is a flat heating area and the two sections of the surfaces for cooking separate from the top. Nothing folds. Thank you.

Just got mine and yes a lid comes with it. Beautiful pot. I will be making some lemon marmalade in next day or two and will see how this pot performs. It is tall enough to handle the frothing of the jam nicely.

No its not its just like the inside of the bottom skillet. I might add that the top makes a great shallow pan for making omlets.

Hi Judy, It's an awesome pot but there is one drawback. It has a small opening or cut out in the lid. I'm guessing its a protection to prevent oil from exploding but I wish they would have the same option without the cut out. It does work great as a place for a spoon. Love the size though.

No Lid, just order one separately fitting the diameter of the pan you bought. I have a Calphalon set and on of those lids fit well with it

Comes with Lid. It's quite deep but deep frying (if that's what you mean would required) would be limited. Better to get a deep frying pan. BTW - I really love this frying pan. Works well, cleans even better.

If you are asking whether there are two pots and a lid, the answer is "yes". The top pan holds a bit more than one quart. When I poured in a quart of water, there was about an inch of space to the top. However, when filling the bottom pot, is did not hold quite two quarts. I had about 1/2 cup of water left over. This is not an issue for me as I wanted a double boiler and do not use the pots singly. The lid fits on both pots snugly. I have used this pot for making fudge, melting chocolate, and frosting, and I am completely happy with it. I am not sure the bottom of either pot is heavy enough to cook things other than liquids. I use double & triple clads for heavier foods. The stainless steel cleans up well. Hope this helps.

no, but is a very good set. would recommendwell, you got me thinking about the lids, so i took a look at the set and lid for the fry pan does actually fit the larger skillet.

Yes, it does. The old Sears pan it replaced for me had a sturdier and better-positioned hook, but this one is serviceable. With the addition of a non-fenestrated second lid, I've found it a pretty useful pot.

The lid is not hinged, the back of the cooker has a metal stand that you can rest the lid on. When not in use, it flips down and keeps the cord wound.

No, the lid was nice and tight. The only problem I had was rusting, which led to a stovetop full of water one morning. We had the pot for less than two weeks.

Yes there is a lid. I am very happy with the pan and the lid fits some of my other pans.

I have carried a pie i left in a springform pan and the lid stayed collapsed. It really depends on how heavy it is but its pretty darn sturdy. I love that you can transport decorated goods without worrying theyll de crushed!
