Bought this to cook large amounts of dumplings and pierogis for entertainin friends and family. It works perfectly and allows for large amounts to be cooked at once. Using a single layer steamer was so time intensive for large parties, so this steamer came in incredibly handy. The screws on the lid became a little loose shortly after purchase, but a quick tighten and no problems since. Easy to clean. Layers fit inside each other to make storage a breeze. Would definitely purchase again.Erik T.
