What Others Say
Excellent quality cookware for a super price!
I bought a 17-piece set of Cuisinart Chef's Classic stainless cookware, plus a 1-qt. saucier and the double boiler. I am very pleased with all of them, and these 20 pieces are all I should ever need!
Good quality, but too big
I love my Cuisinart stainless cookware set. I needed a new double boiler and decided to stick with the same brand, despite some of the reviews I had read online. This double boiler is just too big for my needs. In addition, it is difficult to store because it doesn't have a flat bottom. The quality of Cuisinart Chef's Classic Stainless Universal Double Boiler with Cover is excellent. I just don't like it's shape and size.
Excellent quality
Very pleased with the quality. When it arrived, I was surprised at how large it is. Considered sending it back for that reason--Primarily I just want it to reheat single-serving meals (and NOT use a microwave). But then I thought it's not a bad idea to be able to use it for larger servings. I love it. The curved bottom is nice, it's easy to clean and pretty and shiny enough that I hung it in the kitchen.(Which works better than on a shelf as the curved bottom naturally keeps it from staying upright--the photo is deceiving in that regard). Definitely recommend this and all Cuisinart pots & pans.
Cuisinart Double Boiler
This boiler does not fit snug in the base 3 quart kettle. It might be ok for the 4 qt kettle.
Great, heavy-duty performer
This is a very nice & heavy-duty double boiler. It fits snugly on the Cuisinart pots and sits nice & level. The scooped out bottom makes it very easy to manipulate the ingredients.
High quality and sturdy constructions. I can't think of anything I would change.
