This is a well-made, versatile, attractive, almost-"professional" set which, if you look around for sales, offers a good deal for the money (mine was from Macey's, special $39.95).

Although the bottom unit is heavy enough to function nicely as an independant 3 qt. stockpot, the top unit should definitely not be used over direct heat (my only complaint). And I think the well-made glass lid is always a plus over a solid one.

The upper unit and steamer both have 2 qt. capacities. This size is about right for all "double boiling" or for steamimng moderate amounts of food, but might be a little small if you want to steam vegetables, etc. for more than 2 to 3 people on a regular basis.

I am very pleased with this set. The quality is beautiful and it is a wonderful addition to my other cookware.

It's stackable which means you can boil, steam and melt at the same time, one one burner. It's a real energy saver.

This is truly the finishing pieces to a standard set of Stainless steel cookware.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love love this double boiler., October 28, 2006

We received this as a wedding gift, and I love it. It looks so nice and feels sturdy. The lid is very well-made, and all of the pieces fit together so smoothly. Perfect for quickly steaming a few servings of vegetables, and so much more convenient for melting chocolate than the old pan-in-pan method. We're very pleased.
