Great product sturdy, beautiful and made in Belgium. Beautiful finish, large size, but need to pair up your items better. I had to search multiple sites to piece together my complete set. Also various grade/models seem so confusing with how they will fit together. I have yet to buy my stock pot so I have my set since you didn't have it. Will I end up with something inferior to this grade if I am not careful. I am happy with both pieces I purchased, the steamer and pasta insert! Looking forward to many years of cooking with these.

Perfect addition to the 8qt stock pot. Perfect for pasta, steaming, making a bone broth - will save you time trying to remove the bones - or even cooking dumplings. Made from high quality stainless steel it is durable and tarnish free. It is dishwasher safe too.

Great item but need info about pot to use with needed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm actually using this with another companies 8qt stock pot but love it. It's amazing quality and I only have a problem with thin spaghetti getting stuck in some side holes. Docked a star since I have to clean it by hand to get some little stains off.

The perfect partner to the 8 quart stockpot. Great for making multiple batches of pasta as you can drain each batch and re-use the hot water. Good for blanching as well. The large handles make it easy to remove from pot.

This Zwilling Aurora pasta insert perfectly fits the Demeyere line of pans also made by Zwilling. It has rivets (which Demeyere pots don't), but for me this didn't matter, and it was significantly less expensive. It works well, is very deep so it holds alot of pasta, drains very quickly, and cleans up well. It can also double as a vegetable steamer.

It is an excellent multi-purpose pasta insert, not just for pasta cooking it is also great for beef, vegetables, and chicken stock. Cooking tasks is less messy and offers convenience to me and to the food, preventing from sticking to the bottom of the pot. This also works blanching food such as fruits, vegetables, and even meat. A very helpful pasta insert, makes my life easier. No matter how tiny those holes are, the noodles will not go through even the skinniest ones such as angel hair, and thin vermicelli. This will also drain solid food when making broth, drop every ingredient for your stock, and will easily drain liquid upon lifting this insert from the stockpot. An awesome multi-task partner in the kitchen and easy to clean, so cleaning is a breeze! This is manufactured from premium quality 18/10 stainless steel with stay-cool 18/10 stainless steel handles that are securely welded and extremely hygienic. Priced-well for a well-made Zwilling product.

I bought this to go with the Aurora 8 quart stockpot. Fits perfect, but have yet to use.
