This is a pasta pot I purchased about a year ago. It's currently sold for 30,800 yen on the official Miyaco Seisakusho website. I haven't used it very often, so it still has the shine of stainless steel. However, as you can see in the third and fourth photos, there are some spots that look like rust on the mesh and the bottom of the pot. I think it could be cleaned up by polishing or sending it to the manufacturer, but please be aware that I will send it as is. It has a 7-layer construction and excellent heat retention. It can be used for simmered dishes like curry and for keeping food warm. There are also some minor scratches from use, so please only consider purchasing if you don't mind. I've thrown away the box, so it will be wrapped in bubble wrap for shipping. Please read my profile before purchasing.
