Fagor Commercial Stainless Steel 2-Quart Double Boiler with Steamer Insert - 818020202

had similiar for gas stove used all the time,but switched to induction range had to give away most of my faves , prefer fresh veggies over canned, steamed lightly, like handles too, takes less space in cabinets than single long handle light weight too hate heavy cookware - weak wrists

wonderful for slowly heating oil/butters for soap and lotion making. Perfect for making cream soups as the milk doesn't scorch. The best for scalding milk for yogurt and bread.

Previous review indicate this products tips. Yes, it definitely does, but it did not actually tip over on the smooth top electric stove. It tips over in the cupboard, however. I made a white roux which burned on the bottom. Need to cook more slowly and at a lower temp I think.

Hope she can use it to make a steamed pudding. Will let you know after she tries it.

The pot has a rolled rim that cracked on it's second use and continued to crack down the side of the pot when washed in the dishwasher. I hope that only this pot was defective and that this is not a design dificiency. I would reccommend trying another double boiler.
