Made of 18/8 stainless steel, this set offers three cooking options in a single package. There's an 8-quart pot for simmering stocks and soups and cooking stews, an 8-quart colander that fits inside the pot for cooking and draining pasta, and a 2-1/2-inch-deep basket that also fits inside the pot for steaming vegetables and fish. A domed lid with an adjustable steam vent completes the set. The pot, lid, and a band around the top of the colander where it protrudes from the pot are all polished to a mirror finish, presenting a uniform exterior. Hollow handles on the pot and the colander stay cool on the stovetop. Both the colander and the steamer nest inside the pot for compact storage. The set is dishwasher-safe and carries a five-year warranty against defects.
