Review: Fits inside of 6 quart Dutch oven - I was looking for a small wire mesh basket that would fit inside of a normal 6-quart pot, or dutch oven. I ordered the 6-quart version of this same steamer basket, but it was much smaller than I anticipated. The 8-quart steamer basket actually fits much better inside of the 6-quart dutch oven and pot. I was looking for a basket that I could cook pasta in, where I could simply lift the basket out to drain the pasta, rather than needing to use a separate collander. Normal pots that come with a pasta insert, typically have larger holes in the insert, and pasta sometimes slips through the holes, and to the bottom of the pot. The wire mesh of these baskets is too small for the pasta to slip through. Using this basket, the pasta no longer burns or sticks to the bottom of the pot, because the basket does not touch the bottom of the pot. Using this basket, it is very easy to drain the pasta, simply picking the basket up, via the silicon covered handle. The wire mesh is small enough to accommodate grains of rice also, if you wanted to use it for that. And, it could also be used for steaming of vegetables, dumplings, or anything else. The only negative is that it DOES stick out of the top of the pot, so you could not use the basket in those cases where you wanted to use the lid to seal the pot. Personally, I really like these baskets. If I could make any manufacturer suggestions, it would be to make the baskets as wide as possible, to come within 1/2 - 1/4 of an inch from the side walls of a standard 6 quart pot or dutch oven, and where the top of the basket sits just under the closed lid. I gave them 5 stars, because I like the materials, quality of the build, quality of the mesh, and versatility. But, I would like to see them designed to better fit a typical 6-quart pot or dutch oven.
Review: Perfect fit and great quality - Works and fits perfect

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this basket food grade stainless steel?**
A: I have had this steaming basket for almost two years. This is my most used steaming basket for the pressure cooker since it is the largest that I have and holds more food than any other steaming basket I have.  When I am steaming veggies or mushrooms for freezing, I use it multiple times in one day, and, in the two years I have had it, I usually use it at least once per week. With all of this use, there is not one speck of rust on it. I have others in the past that have developed rust on them, but this one has not. It looks to me like stainless steel, but I should mention I have never put it in the dishwasher. For my uses, I just wash it by hand and dry it.

**Q: Does this fit the 6 qt pot in the instant pot duo plus? my pot tapers in a little at the bottom and when i measure it is about 7".**
A: Hello and thanks for the question. Yes, the basket will fit all 6qt, Instant Pot pressure cookers. The basket also has a taper to it and measures about 6.9" at the bottom.

**Q: What is the mesh size for the basket.  Can it hold small items like lentils or will they fall through?**
A: If I had to guess, I would say no, probably not the best idea. They may not fall through but if they over cook in the least they could get pretty gloppy and I would not want to have to clean the mesh!

**Q: Can I leave the handle on while it is steaming inside my Instant Pot?**
A: Definitely!! I have the 8 quart size, and I use it more than any other basket I have.  The handle is coated and doesn't seem to ever get too hot to pull it out of the PC. You can remove the handle if you want to, but I always leave mine on.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fit and great quality
*by S***. on January 12, 2026*

Works and fits perfect

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More uses than just steaming vegetables.
*by C***6 on January 11, 2026*

Ok, this doesn't sit inside my Hexclad 8 qt. pot & allow a lid to seal the pot. However, this works very easily in my 12 qt. camping pots. It also works good as a pasta strainer. Good construction, easy handle to lift the basket.
