"Great buy!" 2010-08-16
By M. D. Martin (Atlanta, GA)
I already heard good things about this steamer from a relative so I had to get one for myself. It is easy to clean, steams quickly and thoroughly, and my wife loves it! I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to keep the true flavor of their favorite foods.

"Love it!" 2010-08-09
By darwinian_world
Love the new steamer and the fancy features it comes with. The Error mechanism when the amount of water falls below a certain level is great! Also like the fact that it is transparent. A good addon would be an extra container for rice. An ability to give the aroma of the spices would also be welcome. PS: Have not used it extensively, so can't comment on durability or sturdiness. Have owned for about 3 months now.

  
"Useful but ...." 2010-07-13
By Kent Forrest "Mac User" (St. Louis)
It is an "earn while you learn" device. There are no cooking instructions which come with. We use it for steamed corn, potatoes, rice, etc. - these work very well with practice.

  
"Works great! Good capacity." 2010-07-07
By Nancy at work (State of Confusion)
This steamer is really a good use of the money. Totally worth it. Holds a lot of food, cooks it quickly without letting too much steam escape and without heating up the house. It's fairly easy to clean (a dishwasher should make this a moot point, but I don't use one) and it's easy to use. The directions make sense and cover what you need to know. The time has a clear and easy-to-read display. There's not much else to say about this steamer other than that I wouldn't give mine up.
