Read More ReviewsIt is constructed with durable, 22 gauge stainless steel, so it won't discolor or react to acidic foods over time. The thick, 4 mm aluminum core is designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use in your commercial setting. The body is made of type 400 stainless steel. Plus, its sandwich clad bottom and sides attract and evenly distributes heat, thus eliminating hot spots.
For a secure grip during transport, it features welded, side-looped handles to ensure a permanent connection between the handles and the pasta cooker. Since these handles are on both the inset and stock pot, it ensures long-lasting quality in high-traffic commercial settings.
This pasta is ideal for making cooking pasta due to the three separate components. The stock pot is made to hold water while the inset fits tightly into the pot and the many holes allow the water into the inset. When the pasta is done, the inset lifts out to easily strain the water from the pasta. Then the cover is included to hold in the heat for gentle simmering.

Great economical pan. From a competitor we use to spend twice as much just to boil pasta. This pan holds up well and is easy to keep clean. Continuous salt usage does discolor the interior but doesn't affect product or cook times.

This is a great multi use pot set! It is great for par cooking macaroni and other pastas! It works great for blanching diced potatoes and even simmering beans!!!

I officially LOVE LOVE LOVE this pot. I am a residential customer who makes my own chicken stock every couple of months and freezes it. My previous 20 qt pot had no pasta insert. It was always precarious to wrestle it over to the sink and strain the stock through a sieve into bowls. There was always spillage and sometimes I got burned, even if I had someone helping me. Now, no more of those problems, and no more extra dirty bowls to wash. Great, great purchase. FYI: I can fit 15 lbs of chicken backs, 2 lbs of carrots, 2 bunches of celery, 6 onions, plus herbs into the insert.

After a day of making tomato sauce we used this pot to cook a pasta dinner. The pot was easy to use was easy to clean and made well. You need to use a high btu stove or an outdoor burner to get the water to boil.

Nice size

This has been saving us so much time when we make our large batches of pasta and macaroni salad. It is ALMOST too small, though. The best part is, it keeps the pasta off the bottom of the pan, so it doesn't stick and burn. We also cool our pasta before using it and this saves the step of pouring it in a colander.

I am very pleased with this purchase. I have wanted a stock pot with pasta strainer and this one is perfect - right price and quality for my needs.

It is beyond convenient to have this pan to cook and drain pasta in. Carrying the old pot to the sink and having the lid slip while draining was always a risk of getting burned.

This pot is excellent quality, I cannot say enough good things. We use it most often for stock--it is SO much easier to lift the insert out, rather than pouring hot stock through a strainer. Even after hours of simmering stock, it is such a breeze to clean. It has held up so well.

Pricey but this pot it made of great quality stain less steel aluminum. We use it to cook spaghetti and also to boil cashwes and the insert helps big time!

Good aluminum pot and colander. Easily made 6 quarts of pasta every day. Great value and works as good as more expensive versions. Cleans good too.
I thought this pot was very big for the use I intended. I think too much water is wasted to try to cover the food.

First of all this pot is gorgeous I’m scared to scratch it. The dept of the slotted pot is close enough that it will get direct heat, but it’s not going to burn from the flames. Ive been able to cook a full dinner for the family with extra pasta as left overs .

Love this pasta cooker so much we bought a second one, instead of cooking pasta once a day, we do it fresh before each shift and knock it out in less than 30 minutes for 4 batches, reuse the water once each.

This pot works for more than just pasta! We use it for anything that would need straining or steaming! The quality isnt flimsy, its a nice quality.
This pot is great! I no longer have to worry about pouring out the pasta from a boiling pot into a colander. I have made lots of pasta in this and all I can say is that I can't live without this pot any more.
This is a rather big pot, and awesome quality for the value. Cooks my pastas very fast. I plan to buy a few more down the road.
Quality product. Bought specifically for use on induction cooktop and works like a charm. Large enough for quantity cooking, yet not too bulky to handle easily.
This pasta cooker combination is a great time saver for cooking on the go. No more collinder and rushing around. This combination cooker is a great purchase for a home or small business it cuts down on time and work. It also comes with complete instructions to care for the pot.
We bought this after experimenting with it's big brother the 20qt. It's great for vegetables, pasta etc. Makes quick and simple work. We now own 2-20qt and 1-12 qt.
