It appears that the pasta insert is deep enough to be covered with approximately 4-quarts of water. That is plenty for a large family pasta feast. The reason I rated this 4-stars rather than 5 is that I normally cook thin spaghetti and where I would prefer a 2" solid band around the bottom of the pasta insert (to butt the dry pasta against), there are more draining holes. This means some of the pasta will try to escape through the draining holes, especially if you follow the Fagor cooking directions and place the insert already loaded with dry pasta into the boiling water.
This Chinese manufactured pan was deeply embossed on the underside and indicated the pan may be used for induction cooking. At $21.95, I am going to order several more as (super economy sized) stocking stuffers! :o)
