I purchased this pan about a year ago and I have to say it has literally replaced all of my other kitchen pans. I now steam every vegetable at once - adding them to adjust for their cooking time. I have given 8 of these for wedding gifts and the people seem to love it as much as I do. Wonderful Investment.

I bought this expecting a high quality product but the bottom is not flat and it does not work well on my glass top range. I would not buy this again. Only way I can use it is to go outside and cook on my gas grill's side burner. Bummer.

I could not believe what an excellent skillet this is. I use it all the time and am so glad I bought it. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to fry eggs, make chili, or anything else a skillet is used for. This is the ultimate in quality, especially for the price. This oversized skillet would make an excellent wedding gift.

Well made workhorse, I had some reservations about ordering this skillet, but it has been great having a very large skillet that I can easily cook an entire meal in. Very good quality for the price, I got it for $49.99 on sale here on Amazon. It has a nice thick clad bottom that spreads the heat well, even though it's 14" across. The vent mechanism is poorly designed, but does work, that's the only critisism I have for this skillet/steamer.

This steamer cooks food so evenly because it so large. I was so tired of cramming all my vegetables into my small steamer and expecting them to cook evenly. It even has a vent on the lid that you can open or close so that you don't have to keep letting the steam escape when you cook broccoli. This is the answer that I've been looking for after all the wasted money on other steamers. Highly recommended!!

I love this skillet. I did not realize how large it is. Bit bigger than I expected. No problem, I am sure it will come in handy more often that I know.

Since I bought this pot I have turned to it again and again. There is plenty of room for steaming. It has a nice heavy bottom so everything cooks evenly. It is a beautiful pot, easy to clean, great for almost any cooking challenge! I would highly recommend it to anyone!

I had been looking for a steamer to replace my old worn out dutch oven steamer that had seen a lot of years of use. We have a large garden every year, and I prefer to blanch my veggies for the freezer with steam instead of dropping them in boiling water. I freeze about 100 pints of green beans per season plus lots of other veggies as well. I could not find a new one that was any where near the diameter of my old one and had a decent sized steam basket. This year I used the Precise Heat Stainless-steel Oversized Skillet. It didn't take long to get the feel of this new one. It also held full sized ears of corn very well. I was surprised when the pot arrived to find that the lid handle had a steam adjustment lever on it as I did not remember that being in the description. You have to be careful to have that thing closed and to always use a hot pad on the handle just in case it would slid open. If it did and you had no hot pad you would have terrible steam burns on your hand. I have also noticed that the inside bottom of the pot now has a bluish cast. I have always had plenty of water in the bottom, so I know it was not from that. It may be a reaction to my water or the high temps from boiling water. I have never had that with any of my other stainless steel pots, but it is just cosmetic and does not affect performance. All in all I am very pleased with this oversized "skillet".

If you need to cook for more than 6 people (holidays, big families) you need it!!! Easy to clean, doesnt stick or burn food... I'm so glad I have it. Worth the money. Also I use amazon free shipping, so... i cant be disappointed.

I had looked at these for a long time and finally bought one. I thought my partner might not be happy with it when it arrived as it's around the size of a small state (think Rhode Island) but my partner loves it and raves about it because you can cook an entire meal in it. Plus it's great for making large pots of soup or beans.
