Will this steamer insert fit into another brand of cookware? If yes, what's the requirment of the pot? I just want to purchase a steamer insert. TY

Insert will work with any 13 inch/ 32 cm pot. I purchased as it fits in my wok. Good product at reasonable price. Good luck. Ken

Not sure about an insert available, but you could as a steamer if needed. The basket is pretty deep and i just checked and there is about an inch clearance bwtn the bottom of the basket and the bottom of the pan. So i guess it would depend on how long you needed to steam. For quick things i would think okay, but i wouldn't try a small lobster, probably run out of water before it was ready. Hope this helps! We use all the time for two people's worth of pasta.

you'd probably be happier w the larger size steam basket. I like mine, but wish I got the big one instead. If you put it in a lg. pot, the sides will droop to the bottom of the pot. Pot sides help keep steamer sides off pot bottom. Smaller pot works well with it.

It's a universal steamer so that the saucepans you have will fit below and steamer cover fits on top. Don't know for sure, but guess is no it doesn't fit

I use mine in my 3-qt. saucepan and my 4-qt. soup pot. It fits perfectly in either one.

It fits in both of the 1-1/2 quart and 3 quart saucepans, but it is too small to be used on the huge 8 quart stock pot. Having said that, the steamer is probably the best thing about this set. If you like to make veggies with pasta, for instance, one can easily steam the veggies above the boiling pasta and then strain the pasta right in with the veggies: saving both time and the use of extra pans.

I bought 2 sets, 10 piece and 12 piece. The 10 piece shown here my daughter has. It doesn't have but 1 frying pan which is the 8 inch. The 12 piece I have had 2 frying pans with it but no steamer so I ordered me one. Steamer is a basket that goes inside one of the pots. Its behind the utensils. A Dutch Oven is the one right in the front. They are good for using to make roast with potatoes and carrots , stews, or casseroles in the oven. The lid fits down tightly and the food cooks slow and evenly in the oven. We both love our cookware. It cooks great and cleans up great. Couldn't ask for better cookware and the price is excellent.

I am not sure.....I would look up the dimensions of the other inserts and see....BUT if you live near a bed bath and beyond or any store that carries it ..I would take the steamer in and try it in the floor ..model...it comes off easily enough...if they let you that is....don't get in trouble over it...of course compare prices and all and get it where you get the best deal

My guess is that the pictures are incorrect. I have three sizes of All-Clad saucepans, and only the largest (4 quart) has a helper handle, so it's possible there is a picture of the 4-quart pot mixed in.This product, which is the 2-quart saucepan with the ceramic double boiler insert, has NO helper handle on either the pan itself or the insert.There is another All-Clad double boiler insert that is stainless steel, NOT ceramic, which can fit both the 3- and 4-quart saucepans but I strongly recommend this one with the ceramic insert, because it has superb heat control. This is the best double boiler I've ever used. My guess is that the pictures are incorrect.

Yes, must have a sauce pan under this steamer insert. The pan will provide the boiling water and steam for the food above, in this steamer insert.

It's about 9 inches. There is also a 3 1/2 inch tall steamer basket that fits inside the top part of the insert. So if you use the steamer the usable insert is less than 6 inches. I said in my review that the pot was too small for a party of 12. But it is great for smaller get togethers. I really like the pot.

I did not get an insert. I assumed that the pot would work on the cooktop without an insert.

We do and it is perfect. Ours is the smaller instant pot but it would work perfectly in either. I got it because the furnished wire steaming rack is useless.

I'm not sure if two steamers together will give you the right costintancy of steam you might want. If your layering two at a time you might want use a bigger pot underneath both steamers. This steamer is universal from 2 Qaurts up to 4 Quarts.

Have you contacted Sanyo and asked them? They must sell replacement pots for the cooker.

I assume you are talking about the 8 pc. vs. the 7 pc. set in which instance I would suggest it is the 9 1/2 inch pasta steamer insert. I could not say for certain because I purchased the 17 pc. set. I will say that I've had a lot of cookware in my time and nothing on the market compares to this. So easy to use, skillets heat evenly and cleaning is a breeze ... just wipe it out with a sponge. In any event, never run a hot skillet under cold water. Let them cool off first then wash. This is to keep the metal/alloy from warping. Probably good advice for any cookware but if you treat this one right, it will give you a lifetime of service.
