So far it has been a great pot. I have used it for Making stuffing for stuffed peppers, and also to deep fry. Steam broccoli and string beans .and make rice. Good heat distribution . The cover seals very nice. Perfect weight as not flimsy or too heavy
Its interior surface is so strong and easy to clean. Love the heat resistant handles. Surprisingly I’m using the steamer more than I ever thought I would.
Great all-purpose pan for everything I’ve made so far: arroz con pollo, beef stew, Thai yellow curry, steamed veggies and even pan fried potatoes. I’d buy a whole set in this same material!
I needed a way to cook pasta etc. with easy draining. This works well. I had to fill the pan quite full for the water to cover pasta, so it sloshed some. Otherwise, effective and easy to use. I like it a lot!
I love this ceramic pan! Nonstick, glass lid and spatula are nice features; but the feet welded onto the steamer basket rusted after the first use!! I washed it before use, towel dried so I could put away immediately, but my first steam of dim sum dumplings and there was rust on the basket feet when I washed everything after the meal. So it didn’t sit on the stove in water for more than an hour. Highly disappointed in this steamer basket and the feet welded under it. Cuisinart should’ve left that off.
