Used this to make 7 minute icing. It worked great and my mom loved the icing.

Listen, this is NOT a steamer and nor should the top part be used as a stand alone pot to cook with. You can see in the detail photos that the top pan has a groove in it. That is there for one specific reason and that is to hold it into place. Stop giving products bad reviews because you are not capable of reading the product details, description or look at the photos in the ad box.They are not falsely advertising this product whatsoever. It does a pretty good job to be honest. Yes the top part is a bit thin but I've already used it to make shampoo bars and it worked just like it should have. It is a nice size and is pretty durable, especially for soap or shampoo making. I had absolutely no problem with heat while using it and it is very eye appealing. The Handle seems to be well made as well. If I had it to do over, yes I would buy this again.

The quality is very good and capacity is twice what most double boilers listed on Amazon can handle.I use it to melt and then strain bees wax, harvested from Langstoth frames, using a crush and strain method. I can process the wax from 5 "deep" Langstroth frames (after pressing the wax in a fruir press to remove almost all of the honey).My wife makes fudge and chocolate pie filling...and we may need to buy another one of these for those purposes.

Received a faulty product. The bottom pot was damaged resulting in the top pot unable to stack on the bottom.

I am using this Double Boiler to heat milk to 82°C and holding it there for at least 30 minutes.This item is lightweight and easily holds the 2 litres of milk I need. I am able to hold the milk temperature close to what I want with very little effort. So much easier now.It is ideal for making my yogurt.

Bottom pot is heavyTop pot is very thin and lightLid is very heavy glass and stainless steelOverall great designGlass lid has a small hole, great for keeping a thermometer in which is usually needed with certain types of double boiler cooking.It's a really nice set up.Those of you that know what a double boiler is used for, and know how to cook, this is a great kitchen must have.Those of you that don't know how to use a double boiler, will complain that the top pot is too thin and food burns and sticks to it. . . . . . . DUH! The top pot should never come in direct contact with the stove flame, DUH . . . . That's why it's called a double boiler, the water heats your recipe, not direct flame.No sticking, No burning!The other great thing about this model is that I can fill the top pot with 2 quarts and still have some breathing room left over.

Muy linda la olla, es muy útil y en verdad a muy buen precio. La compre porque compre una máquina para hacer yogurt, y fue de gran utilidad ya que solo la utilizo para calentar la leche, y asi no contaminó sabores.

This worked perfect for me. I bought it to melt some chocolate for Oreo balls. The top pan is a little on the thin side but I might only use it once or twice a year. I think if you plan to use if often, you may want to go with something more heavy duty. It's true, the top doesn't seem non stick but I also had no issues cleaning it. And, it does have a lip in the top pan so that it will fit down in the bottom pan without falling in, but the groove is large enough to clean with a regular sponge and the chocolate melted just fine without any issues. It is larger than I realized though. Most double boilers are 2 qt and this one is 3 so just factor that in. Overall, it's a very basic double boiler but for lightweight use I think it's worth the money.

Great little pan set, I read some reviews that said it was "too light" or that it warped or that it just did not seem "heavy enough " . Hey for less than 20.00 what do you expect ? I have no issue with this product it does exactly what it is supposed to do. One reviewer said it did not fit well together, mine was perfect, yes it lets steam out between the boilers if it did not it would become a pressurized bomb. I use this to re-liquefy honey that has started to crystallize. Put water in bottom pan and honey in top one, turn stove on and monitor honey temperature closely. Do not let honey get above 120 degrees, ( 140 is what experts say, I err on side of caution) , this keeps from destroying the enzymes in raw honey. I am very pleased with this and do not regret this purchase, it is just what I need. It may not (probably won't ) last as long as a 100.00 dollar set but for my purpose it is fine. Just don't expect to need two hands to pick it up, it is light weight and holds 2 quarts with plenty of room to stir. I hope this information is helpful

The top is stainless steel and the bottom is non stick. I don't need a double boiler very often but when I do I find it so cumbersome to use a bowl over a pot. It's hard to safely remove the bowl when it's hot or full of hot liquid. Sometimes you have to check the water level and add more water. I like the handles on these and the lid is very nice. The lid is glass and has a vent hole. The whole set is nice. It's lightweight too and made of a light gauged stainless steel. I will be making yogurt in this and maybe chocolate candy and more. The last time I made yogurt with a bowl, I decided to get this. It's much better to have something that is easier to use and safer.It looks nice too.It's later now and I made yogurt in this. It went faster than usual because of the thin stainless steel but my yogurt turned out perfect. Next time I'll lower the heat and go a little slower even though it was the perfect consistency and turned out great.Most importantly, I got to safely removed the top part to check the water level which was great!
