For heaven's sake! I know copper is good for rapid response to changing temperatures, such as when you are sauteing and get to close to burning something..... but steaming potatoes? Good grief!

I'm sure, however, it looks great in those expensive granite surfaced kitchens, where the hostess never deigns to actually steam a potato.
