Customer Reviews
Good value - but not too practical for some 3 qt pans
This steamer works great in the 3 qt. cassarole pan of the 10-piece set, but I'm afraid to use it in the 3 qt. sauté pan - that would allow only about 1" of water or less in the pan. The steamer is very deep, which is nice, but I'd rather seen it not so deep so I could have a bit more water in the bottom. I've never boiled a pan dry using a steamer, but I've come close. What's nice is that once you get the water boiling (of course leaving the lid on so it does so quickly), you can turn down the heat quite low, almost down to a simmer, and still get a good amount of steam.
Great steamer
Emerilware is a great stepping-stone in cookware between the common store bought stuff and the extravagantly priced All-Clad type cookware. It is perfect for me. As a matter of fact I Like the slightly lighter weight of the Emeril line as apposed to the All-Clad. The only thing that I don't like is that I noticed the newer pieces from the last six months or so is made overseas. I don't recall that they were before. This steamer fits the 3-quart lidded casserole pan and 3-quart saucepan perfectly. It also fits the 2-quart saucepan but as another reviewer mention it does not leave much water in the bottom of the pan. I do wish that the emerilware line would come up with a double boiler with the same configuration as the steamer.

Item arrived promptly in excellent condition. Unfortunately, it did not fit my cookware as anticipated (my fault - it was for a different product) and I returned it. Received my money back promptly as well. Overall, good experience with this vendor.
