Absolutely Great

We absolutely love our Cuisinart Classic 4-Piece Pasta Set. This pan works wonderful on our glass-top stove. The pasta turns out great every time. Our manicotti shells no longer fall apart during cooking and draining.
This weekend we made and canned applesauce. The strainer kept the apples from burning and when we boiled the jars for their water bath, the pan was tall enough to cover the jars.
Thanks for offering such a wonderful product.

I purchased this set to replace a worn out two pot gift set that I have been using for the past five years to cook pasta and hard boiled eggs. The first thing I cooked was a dozen eggs and other than taking much longer to bring the water to a rolling boil due to the water volume below the basket, it did a good job. I'm looking forward to trying the spaghetti soon. Due to others' comments about rust spots, I checked for that issue and found extensive visible spotting after the first use. A little elbow grease and Barkeepers Friend cleaned that up. Very satisfied so far....
Pros: easy to use, multi-purpose, construction, capacity, Appearance/ Design /Style, Functional/Useful

Great Combo

I purchased the larger 10 qt pot after reading the on line reviews. Love the speg insert, easy to clean and the pasta starch does not stick in the holes. The steamer is very nice, easy to use handles, kinda far from the water though. Love this pot combo. It is kinda tall for storing. Where there is a will there is a way.
Pros: Easy to Clean/Wash, Value for Money, quality, multi-purpose, construction, Appearance/ Design /Style, Functional/Useful, capacity

Really love how this fits together tight and how large the steamer basket is. You can use both pasta cooker and steamer at the same time although I don't know if it would give your veggies a pasta taste to them. No biggie if you're putting them with your pasta or making a sauce for them though.

Cons: Handle gets hot

I love the way this is made. It is so easy to use and I use it every Sunday when I have a house fill of company. The pot is made so well that I don't have any problems using it. The best part of this product is the cleaning. The price was right for both colanders and looks beautiful on my stove.

I looked through a lot of websites and found this one in a good deal. I bought one (not branded) earlier from a store and it spills while it's boiling with cover on it. But this one doesn't. My mom-in-law also loves it. Right size and good price.

I needed a pot which was tall for pasta and soups, but not overly huge. The size is great, and it fits under my counter top range. It is great for making steamers, too. They all opened at the same time. I only rated it 4 stars, because the handles are not cool touch, I still need potholders for this.

and this pot never lets me down. The heat is distributed evenly so that the water heats quickly and there is enough room in the drain insert to properly cook his pasta and some for the rest of the family as well.

I love to cook pasta dishes and fresh vegetables. I was tired of using a seperate strainer in the sink and getting burnt by the steam or boiling water. I saw this Pasta Set in your catalog and was filled with joy. Cuisinart's name speaks for itself and the price was right! This is the smartest purchase I have made to help me in the kitchen. It is so much easier and no more straining. Just pull out the insert and pour the pasta in a bowl. You can even use both inserts at the same time! Thank you Chefs.
