T-fal Specialty Nonstick Double Boiler 3 Quart Oven Safe 350F Cookware, Pots and Pans, Dishwasher Safe Silver/Black

Great quality

This worked perfect for me. I bought it to melt some chocolate for Oreo balls. The top pan is a little on the thin side but I might only use it once or twice a year. I think if you plan to use if often, you may want to go with something more heavy duty. It's true, the top doesn't seem non stick but I also had no issues cleaning it. And, it does have a lip in the top pan so that it will fit down in the bottom pan without falling in, but the groove is large enough to clean with a regular sponge and the chocolate melted just fine without any issues. It is larger than I realized though. Most double boilers are 2 qt and this one is 3 so just factor that in. Overall, it's a very basic double boiler but for lightweight use I think it's worth the money.

Bottom pot is heavy Top pot is very thin and light Lid is very heavy glass and stainless steel Overall great design Glass lid has a small hole, great for keeping a thermometer in which is usually needed with certain types of double boiler cooking. It's a really nice set up. Those of you that know what a double boiler is used for, and know how to cook, this is a great kitchen must have. Those of you that don't know how to use a double boiler, will complain that the top pot is too thin and food burns and sticks to it. . . . . . . DUH! The top pot should never come in direct contact with the stove flame, DUH . . . . That's why it's called a double boiler, the water heats your recipe, not direct flame. No sticking, No burning! The other great thing about this model is that I can fill the top pot with 2 quarts and still have some breathing room left over.

Listen, this is NOT a steamer and nor should the top part be used as a stand alone pot to cook with. You can see in the detail photos that the top pan has a groove in it. That is there for one specific reason and that is to hold it into place. Stop giving products bad reviews because you are not capable of reading the product details, description or look at the photos in the ad box. They are not falsely advertising this product whatsoever. It does a pretty good job to be honest. Yes the top part is a bit thin but I've already used it to make shampoo bars and it worked just like it should have. It is a nice size and is pretty durable, especially for soap or shampoo making. I had absolutely no problem with heat while using it and it is very eye appealing. The Handle seems to be well made as well. If I had it to do over, yes I would buy this again.

I can make a double batch of banana pudding it this nonstick double boiler. The fudge came out perfect too

Very useful, great buy

Great little pan set, I read some reviews that said it was "too light" or that it warped or that it just did not seem "heavy enough " . Hey for less than 20.00 what do you expect ? I have no issue with this product it does exactly what it is supposed to do. One reviewer said it did not fit well together, mine was perfect, yes it lets steam out between the boilers if it did not it would become a pressurized bomb. I use this to re-liquefy honey that has started to crystallize. Put water in bottom pan and honey in top one, turn stove on and monitor honey temperature closely. Do not let honey get above 120 degrees, ( 140 is what experts say, I err on side of caution) , this keeps from destroying the enzymes in raw honey. I am very pleased with this and do not regret this purchase, it is just what I need. It may not (probably won't ) last as long as a 100.00 dollar set but for my purpose it is fine. Just don't expect to need two hands to pick it up, it is light weight and holds 2 quarts with plenty of room to stir. I hope this information is helpful

This is an excellent double boiler. I had some concerns because of some of the negative comments. When I got the pan, I was surprised at its size. It's big. It's bigger than the pan I was replacing. I poured two quarts of water into the upper pan and had an inch to spare. This is a two-quart pan, even though some reviews said it wasn't. The upper pan has an indentation an inch from the bottom that keeps it from falling into the lower pan. So, yes, food can get into the indentation. So what? I use the double boiler to make sticky steel-cut oats that wash out easily. There was also a comment that the upper pan only left an inch of space for water in the bottom pan. Not true. The bottom pan is four inches deep and the top pan only takes an inch of space. Both pieces fit together nicely. They're snug enough to prevent too much steam to escape but not so tight that they stick together. Several comments were that the upper pan isn't coated. That's exactly why I bought it. I don't want coating in my food. The pan washes well without being coated. I recommend this double boiler and have nothing bad to say about it.

De muy buen tamaño , para hongos en su jugo, riquisimos

Solid double boiler!

I am using this Double Boiler to heat milk to 82°C and holding it there for at least 30 minutes. This item is lightweight and easily holds the 2 litres of milk I need. I am able to hold the milk temperature close to what I want with very little effort. So much easier now. It is ideal for making my yogurt.

Received a faulty product. The bottom pot was damaged resulting in the top pot unable to stack on the bottom.

Muy linda la olla, es muy útil y en verdad a muy buen precio. La compre porque compre una máquina para hacer yogurt, y fue de gran utilidad ya que solo la utilizo para calentar la leche, y asi no contaminó sabores.
