What is the length of the shaft? I make 1 gallon of soup and it has a depth of 6 inches. Was wondering if the shaft is long enough for this task.

I think it would be since you do not set it on the bottom, have used it to make soup myself

It would depend upon the diameter of your pan, but I do not think this would work unless you used a very wide pan and made your soup more shallow.

In my opinion, the first person to respond is not accurately answering your question. I actually think that the opposite technique would be more advisable. The blending shaft is 7-1/2" from the bottom of the bell-shaped blade-cover to the seam where it attaches to the motor housing(in the illustration, you see this juncture as a black horizontal line). If you've ever used an immersion blender before, you'll know that it's not the best technique to hold the blade right at the bottom of the vessel that you're blending in. The blade goes so fast inside the dome shaped cover that it creates a vortex that pulls whatever ingredients you're blending up into the blade. So even if you were blending a fluid whose depth was 8-12" you could probably do a pretty good job with this tool because its motor is so powerful. You could almost hold it in one place (though it might take longer) and find that you can reach a very fine puree. I make pureed soup with this tool all the time. I put my ingredients in a 1.5 gallon stock pot which is about 2/3 of the way full (that would make it about a gallon). It takes 10-15 minutes for all of the vegetables to be completely, finely pureed, but I love this blender. The entire blade cover must be completely submerged. If you try to use it in a liquid that is too shallow, you'll find that a lot of splattering/spewing occurs.

I haven't measured it but I will estimate 5 inches. It is slightly deeper than my old wok.

You could use this for any of your recipes, seeing that it's misleading.... it's only got a 6 quart capacity! I just received mine, and measured it. Yep, only 6 quarts will fit in it.

Not sure. I gave it to a charity auction with Italian stuff. It was the same size as mine from Williams Sonoma, but no size on it. I just measured and it fits 7 quarts, but might boil over. So I think it is 6 quarts. I have cooked all kinds of pasta in it and not run out of room.. It also makes double batches of most soup recipes (without the insert.)

The shaft is just over 40 inches. Keep in mind that you need to be another 12 inches away from what you are burning. You should not have a problem in my opinion.

It is about 3" deep. It is great for fryoing large amounts of chicken. I love it and it doesn't stain on the porcelin.

It is quite light weight as another person has stated and it's 6" deep on the inside for water, liquids, etc. Of course you wouldn't fill it that high for cooking anyway and with the insert in the pot it measures 8" high. Hope that this has been helpful. I wish the interior of the pot was higher myself but since I am not a manufacturer and they seem to do what they want...

It is about 6" deep. I was making lasagna in my "brownie pan" all these years, and it would always overflow (and not be very layered). This pan was great from the moment I used it. There are a lot of "warnings" about care that I will be following to the letter as I love it (ex. can not use it for high temps, must use warm soapy water to clean...duh!). The spatula they gave me with the pan is sort of flimsy...but it was good enough to cut the lasagna and dig it out (I just dont see it lasting very long).

Bought it for the same reason you did. I get 18 quarts of soup in a batch, with about 1 to 1 1/4 inch to the top. So I would definitely say it is 5 gallons to the top. Great stockpot for the price.

It will be about 4-5 in across, about 6-7 in tall. The base takes longer to cook through so keep it at about 285 for about an hour, checking it frequently. I filled up the top part between the 3rd & 4th lines, pouring everything else in the bottom part. It came out nicely. Good luck!

The cylinder is approx. 5 inches deep. It is not as deep as a commercial kitchen size strainer. However, I was able to strain pastry cream and vanilla. sauce.

The depth is around 4"-5". I think you need strainer 12"-14" diameter for pasta. Check amazon and you will find all you've asked for.

Just 10 inches! Fits perfectly on the big burner. Just used it tonight to make up a BIG batch of Thai Coconut soup. Happy New Year!

CIRCUMFRANCE IS 10" AND DEPTH IS 4 1/4" I don see how they are measuring 6' deep, as the basket you put your veggies in is only 4 1/4" high or deep, however you would like to phrase it. The clear plastic where the basket sits is 5" and if you put the top on its 6"I have to stand corrected, my wife didn't throw out our old one, which was from a different manufacture, and thats the one I initially measured for you. Actually the measurements of the basket is 5 1/4" deep and the circumfrance is 8 3/4"

The shaft is 1 inch in diameter. It is light and strong, and you will have to work it if you want it to fit flush with the blade and look nice. I fit mine in a couple of hours easily.

Mine is also just short of 4 1/2" deep and 7 1/2" diameter. I use it every day, including to cook rice -- just add a bit more water or take 5 minutes off the cooking time.

The coil diameter on mine is approx 8.5 inches. Works well for doing 5 gallon extract batches.
