How many quarts does this hold?

I was able to pour 3 quarts of water into the pan, but it was very close to the edge, so would say 2 to 2-1/2 would fit better.

Honestly I am not sure but would guess it would hold approximately 1.5 to 2 quarts. I like the item very much - it keeps ice cold and it is easy to keep clean. Very stylish. Only bad thing is that it did not come with ice tongs.

I see someone responded "1 quart". I measured it and it holds 8 cups of water easily = 2 quart

It is two quart but you cannot put two quarts in it this would be for cooking about 3 cups of product max

I would say it holds at least 2 quarts of fluid, approx. 10 inches tall, 3 inches deep and 6 inches wide, if you need exact numbers let me know and i'll get them.

It got thrown away, so I can't measure it, but I can imagine it might have held about 3 quarts. It certainly did have one long handle as shown (and would not stand on its otherwise usefully curved base). I'd be very inclined to find one in a shop to check with the pan you intend to use beneath it before buying!

The one that I purchased is 10 quarts. There is also another that has just become available that is 12 quarts.

The pot holds about 4 cups (1 quart). The lid holds approx 1 3/4 cups if it is turned upside down and used as a small pot.

Technically, I believe it holds 2 quarts, or 8 cups, however I measured 6 cups of water with it filled so I could carry it from my sink to the stand without spillage.

It holds three quarts. I ended up having to buy a bean pot that was 4 1/2 quarts to do 2 pounds of beans.

It holds both pints and quarts. We enjoy it, in fact, we have two we use in canning. It takes so much less water.

It holds exactly 3 quarts (12 cups liquid) within 1/2" from the rim. I have used mine extensively for 4 years and it's performing fantastic. Best bechamel sauces, cheese sauces, hot cocoa, reheated sauces, best grits, and i use bar keeper's friend to keep it spotless. I do however rec'd you clean it every time you use it asap, food clogs the ridges on the side. Otherwise i'd never trade this add-on to my Cuisinart set in! LOVE IT!

I don't really know the answer to your question for certain. I would expect the large one holds two quarts. I used them only briefly, then donated them to Goodwill because I didn't like them.

I've never measured it for sure, but eyeballing it, I would guess 4 quarts (like, a gallon of milk), if filled to the rim.

Stephanie, I used a 4 cup glass measuring container and poured the water into the scanpan. There was about 1/4 inch left to the top. When I first typed my answer and sent it, it was late and I mis-typed in 5 quarts. I hope this helps. You might google scanpan USA and call them and ask for the amount it will hold. But to repeat my earlier statement, you just can't go wrong by buying this dear pan. My best friends and I bought it and we just absolutely love it.

The capacity is exactly 1 quart (1/4 gallon). I measured it. It doesn't last me through all night. By morning it's always empty and on auto-shutoff.

I own one of these double-boiler inserts, and I checked to see how much liquid it holds. It does not hold 4 quarts/1 gallon. I'd say it would hold three-quarters of that and be quite full. Half a gallon, no problem; three quarts is probably the limit without getting close to being overly full and spilling over.
