Eglaf 8Qt Stainless Steel Fish Steamer - Multi-Use Oval Cookware with Rack, Ceramic Pan, Chuck - Stockpot for Steaming Fish, Boiling Soup

Just arrived. Larger than I thought which is good because it will accommodate larger whole fish with head, (that's good luck for Chinese.) Mine even came with TWO serving plates for some reason (which is even better). If I had to be picky, the thickness of the steel pot itself is a little thin IMO and has no cladded bottom, just thin standard grade stainless so it may discolor. That's common and no big deal as others have said. Just use a mild stainless abrasive cleaner if it bothers you. (i.e. Bar Keepers Friend, etc.) The stainless steel handles are pinch welded (not riveted) so it requires extra care. Please don't be rough with this steamer (not commercial grade at this price) or it won't last. However everything is made with good grade stainless, the stainless lift handles are wonderfully placed and well balanced, the stainless serving plate lift handles work great, and the lid fits tight, creating a perfect seal so it can steam faster. Overall we're very happy with it and I'm sure it will make steamed sea-bass perfectly! : )

This was almost exactly what I was looking for. All of the steamers on Williams-Sonoma and Sur La Table weren’t shaped to steam a whole fish, and you couldn’t easily see check the fish was done for smaller filet pieces.The thickness of the metal could have been a bit more, but it was the only pot to actually do the job. To be sure, it looks classy enough.

I used it for about 4 years, but the lid is broken now. May I buy a replacement of the lid?

I have used this several times now for steaming fish, dim sum, buns, and it works. But lower your expectations and ignore some of the misleading information on the product page.The pot is quite thin, and even though the packaging says the bottom is thick, it definitely does not feel thick. It has a flimsy aluminum feel (best description and feel would be equivalent to a aluminum pan for pies). Brown black patches started forming after FIRST usage of steaming for dim sum, even though there was water in the pot. I have other stainless steel pots and pans in the house that doesn't do that even after years of usage. The packaging box has Chinese and English.Some of the misleading information on the product page that you should definitely not follow.1. "Dishwasher safe, stainless steel parts oven safe to 500°F and glass lid to 350°F." - This product cannot even handle a gas stove while holding water. The pot was damaged with burnt black patches after using it for steaming ONCE. Definitely do not use in oven, and not in dishwasher.2. "8Qt large capacity can cooking something large items such as roast turkey, complete big fish." - We used this for steaming fish, and it works. I definitely don't think you can use this pot for any other cooking methods other than steaming because it cannot even hold water and boil without doing any damage to the pot.3. "The elliptical steamed fish pot,Steam Pot and Lid, Stainless Steel Steamerwith a thick stainless steel " and "★ Superior Quality" - The pot makes random banging noises when boiling water, my guess is probably from the metal expanding - every, single, time. Also, it is definitely not thick, rather, it feels flimsy.The only good thing is the size of the pot. It's perfect size for our needs (it fits two bowls side by side easily). But if I knew of the poor quality of this product, I would not have gotten it. This thing is definitely not worth $50. Also, be aware of at least two other sellers on Amazon selling this same product at almost 2x and 3x the price of this page: B077VLWH2P and B07W5P3GPP.

Love this pan. This is the perfect size I need to steam fish the Asian way!!

The size and shape of this pan is great. Steams fish easily or make long pasta by fully submerging the entire noodle. Plenty of room to stir or cook. Only drawback to the pan is that the metal is very thin, and as it is used, it deforms. So the lid doesn't fit very well even after the first use. The lid will stick when trying to be removed or its difficult to get it back on and seated.

I got this for the purpose of steaming fish and it works like a charm! It has the perfect dish size, 2 plates perfect for putting fish on. I don't mind the pot being thin because I'm only using this for boiling water anyway. Now I can enjoy my steamed fish anytime! Super easy to clean and use!

Fácil de usar,es una Vaporera profesional.Yo personalmente la recomiendo si desean comer sano.
