Yeah, if you had 8 cups plus in it, it's probably a 3 quart. When I make rice pilaf (one cup rice, three cups water, 1/3 cup orzo) it fills half of the 2 quart.

I recommend Farberware, since it's not so expensive, and mine has lasted me over 20 years, but maybe it's not as well made any more, since I see someone below saying it was no good for them.
