*Please read the profile before purchasing.* This is a pasta pot manufactured by Lagostina, designed to handle three functions in one: boiling pasta, draining water, and mixing. The bottom has a three-layer structure with aluminum for excellent heat conduction sandwiched between durable stainless steel, allowing for even heating and high heat retention, making cooking economical. I previously purchased this item as a used item here. It's incredibly easy and convenient to use, not only for boiling pasta and other noodles but also as a double-handled pot for simmering curries, stews, pot-au-feu, etc. The strainer is also useful for draining vegetables. The lid is convenient not only for mixing noodles and sauce but also as a salad bowl. I have another one of the same item, so I'm putting this one up for sale. There is some wear and tear, but I hope you will enjoy using it. - Brand: LAGOSTINA - Material: 18/10 Stainless Steel - Contents: Pot (Outer diameter 24cm, Inner diameter 22cm), Strainer, Lid (Bowl) - Capacity: 5L - Weight: 3.1kg - Country of Manufacture: Italy Thank you for viewing.
