I've been wanting to buy a stockpot with a pasta insert - primarily for
cooking pasta, but I also want something decent enough to reheat soup or
heat up some pasta sauce, simple things like that. My last stockpot
finally had to be tossed and I'd like a replacement, and I'd like the
pasta insert.

FWIW, I bought a no-name, made in Korea, disk-bottomed, SS 12Qt. stockpot at
my local kitchen store for less than $50 a few years ago. It's worked
beautifully. The same store also sells the mesh-style pasta inserts for
about $24. I wouldn't be afraid of no-name cookware, especially for
something that's just going to boil water. You might want to try
Marshall's/TJX/Tuesday Morning, etc. for what you need.

Good luck.
