If you were going to buy this pot for the insert, why wouldn't you use the set? You can use the Cuisinart for something else. I often have two veggie steamers going at once. I use an old unstable, collapsable steamer insert in one of my other pots and put asparagus spears into that one.No problem with large spears, if it is a bit tippy upon taking it out. My Oggi steamer holds the carrot coins or cauliflower florets. It is a very nice pot.

I love this steamer!! Inside measurements of the insert: 3 3/4 in. deep and 7 3/4 in. wide. I just put 2# of carrot coins into it for my Easter dinner. It could hold another pound, I'm sure. I always use 1 pound bags of frozen vegetables and they fits with no problem.

I am not sure.....I would look up the dimensions of the other inserts and see....BUT if you live near a bed bath and beyond or any store that carries it ..I would take the steamer in and try it in the floor ..model...it comes off easily enough...if they let you that is....don't get in trouble over it...of course compare prices and all and get it where you get the best deal

Fortunately, the steamer fits securely in 2, 3 or 4 qt. All Clad pots. So depending on what pot is available to me when I'm cooking, I usually fill the pot half way up with water. The water doesn't evaporate very much, so you won't have to keep refilling. Hope this helps!

I have no idea! I returned my steamer with in a week of receiving it because it wasn't heavy duty enough for what I needed

Vegetable steamer insert: outside diameter-9 9/16"; bottom-8 1/4" across; depth of steamer-3".Pasta strainer-outside diameter: 10.0"; bottom of strainer:8.5"; depth(height) of strainer 6 3/4":a sickens to measure, but that's the best I could do. . My husband says that using strainer while cooking pasta limits the amount is water and pasta that can be cooked.Aa

I gave it as a gift but if I recall about 3/4". It did fit nicely in a four quart pan and even a fry pan if you leave the leaves open. Also key for me was the sturdiness of the feet, many of the steamer I saw at the store had feet that easily bent.

you'd probably be happier w the larger size steam basket. I like mine, but wish I got the big one instead. If you put it in a lg. pot, the sides will droop to the bottom of the pot. Pot sides help keep steamer sides off pot bottom. Smaller pot works well with it.

The item pictured is the combination pasta strainer/vegetable steamer insert. Its diameter is 10 inches at both its top and where it rests on the top lip of the stock pot/multipurpose pot. As for the sauce pans, following are the diameters (measured at the top of each pan) for the ones that I own: 1.5 qt. sauce pan: 7 inches 2.5 qt. shallow sauce pan: 9 inches 3.5 qt. pour and strain sauce pan: 8 3/4 inches

Hi Shirley, the steamer insert measures 7 3/4" outside diameter and 3 3/4" deep. I think it would be a very tight fit if your pot is exactly 7 3/4" too. This would also only leave room for an inch of water under your steamer.

We only bought the largest and it is about 12 inches on a side and roughly 5 inches deep. It works great and can hold a whole head of cauliflower when cut into pieces. It has become the go to steamer at our house.

Inside circumference is 7", outside circumference is 8" and depth is 2 1/4". Very good steamer.

This pan does not come with a steamer insert. You might be thinking of the Farberware Classic Stainless Steel 3-Quart Stack 'N Steam Pan and Steamer. However, even though this 4 quart pan does not come with a steamer, you could use the Norpro 175 Stainless Steel Vegetable Steamer that you can buy from Amazon for $6.21. As a last resort, you could contact Farberware directly and inquire if there is a steamer insert that would fit into this 4 quart pan. Hope this helps.

I've used mine for cooking/steaming asparagus. It's ca. 8 inches inside. I love my little pot, but treat the steamer basket gently. I've used mine to can vegetables and it's great for small batches.
