What is the inside diameter of the pot and what is the height? I want to use it for water bath canning and want to make sure my canning rack will fit

The dimensions they give in the product description are misleading--they include the handles for the width and the height includes the lid and its handle as well. The diameter of the base of the pot is about 9.75", and the height to the lip is 9". The sides are straight.

The diameter is 8.86". The height is 5.12" and the diameter, with the handle included, is 15.75". It is a great steamer. It will work with the 2, 3, and 4 quart sauce pan.

Sorry for the delay. The height is 9-1/8" and widith is 12-3/4". I've canned quart jars in this pot without a problem but I only use about 1" of water FYI, the lid does sputter a bit.

I've used mine for cooking/steaming asparagus. It's ca. 8 inches inside. I love my little pot, but treat the steamer basket gently. I've used mine to can vegetables and it's great for small batches.

I'm using it for a 3qt <something>82 pot. The inside lip is 7" across, the overall diameter is 7.5".

Don't know the circumference of your jars, but the height WILL go in. My canning jars are 6 1/2" tall. The pot is 9" to the rim where the lid fits down(with the rack in it). Also, I don't know if the increased size will affect the canning process. Hope this helps, sherly.

I just measured this rack and it's 7 3/4 inches in diameter. I use it in my Fagor Duo 10 Quart Pressure Canner.

Must be. I can't give you a good answer as I don't know what pot you bought. This works perfectly in the pot I bought at a garage sale a few years ago - about 9" tall, about 13" wide. (O.D. measurements)

Hi! I agree that all items should have a FULL size description right up front. No one should have to search out something as simple as the size of an item. This particular pot is a little over 7" tall and just under 10" wide. It is extremely light weight and made of a foam-like substance. Since it has a water reserve contained within it, be sure to use a moisture measuring stick like Bond 9628 Moisture Meter before watering.I hope this was helpful!

I don't have actual dimensions because I bought a kit first that had the pots in it. Measure the sponge & that's was the pot size - it filled the po

I'll do my best to answer this qustion. The inside diameter of the steamer basket is 9.5 inches at its' widest point and 4 1/8th inches deep. The pot depth is 5 7/8 inches. When inserted, the steamer basked goes into the pot approximately 1 3/4 inches.I use this steamer regularly. In fact, I used it today to par-steam two pounds of Brussels Sprouts for freezing. I could not be happier with the product. It gets a great deal of use in my kitchen.

This pot i got for my son so i can't say for sure. But i also got a pot for myself that's another brand that is over 6 quarts and my pot will not hold any quart mason jars to do canning because of the rack that sits on the bottom of the inner pot making the lid not to fit.

You can use whatever size of jars that will fit into your canning pot with at least an inch of water above the top. My generic stock pot is too short to use larger jars, but I can easily use various kinds of smaller jars. The only important factor is that inch of water.

The pot is 11 inches wide (a little over 14 inches if you include the protruding handles). It's 9" tall without the inserts and 11" tall with the pasta insert (12.5" to the top of the handle). The steamer basket seats down inside either the pan or the insert and does not add to the height. The steamer basket itself is approximately 10 and 5/8 inches in outside diameter, but it has a wide lip (to sit on the ridge inside the pan), so its inner diameter is around 9.5". The steamer basket is a little less than 3 inches tall. Handles aren't a space issue, because you can turn it so the handles are in corners, and the top can be turned upside down to lie perfectly flat.

It is 3 3/8" in diameter, so it will fit any pot larger than that. Noisy though - not just when the pot is boiling - for a couple of minutes leading up to the actual boil it clatters and makes a racket as bubbles form under it and then lift it slightly before escaping.
