What is the model number for this item? I believe it's Item Number 3044 but wanted to confirm since the Kuhn Rikon site shows the MSRP is $219 for Model 3044 vs your $249 price.
what is the diameter of the 8 qt pot? I found an online source said it should be 8.75 inch. But in the specifications above it's listed as 12"x12"x11". Does your specification include the handles? Please clarify.
BEST ANSWER: I bought the pot in January, and the inside diameter of my pot is 8.5". From handle to handle it is 13.25", and at the widest part of the lip of the pot is 9.5". I hope this helps you in your decision.

Can I add a stainless steel basket inside to hold bones when making broth?
BEST ANSWER: I have not done so but see no reason why you couldn't. I prefer to strain my stock with a stainless sieve afterwards but your method could eliminate that step. Try it!

Does anyone use this to can veggies etc. if so, how many quarts may be canned at once?
BEST ANSWER: I have “canned” 3 qt jars of tomatoes in this cooker. Leftovers from the major canner pressure cooker. Maybe up to 4-5 qts? This particular cooker is a stockpot size so is somewhat limited in comparison to wider, lower profile cookers.
