Oster Double Tiered Food Steamer, 5 Quart, White (CKSTSTMD5-W-015)

Worked for a month

Buen precio

1. good cooks meat, fish, chicken. I have not tried to cook the other.2. You need to be very careful when using it. The plastic is very thin.

I tried to cancel this order, and buy a metal pot with a steamer basket but I couldn’t. I am glad I couldn’t. I have used this item every day since I received it. It is the perfect size for two people. I have used it for broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus and reheating rice with a wet paper towel under the rice so it does not fall through the holes. It works beautifully. It creates a lot of steam quickly. There is a timer, so it shuts off automatically at the appointed time. The plastic is durable, and cleans up nicely in the dishwasher. You pour water into the base for steal. After finishing, you just pour out the water, and wipe it out. It is compact, and a great deal for the price. This unit is so much better than buying a big pot with a steamer insert that takes up a huge amount of space, is expensive, and pits, bends, and boils dry way too quickly, as I have experienced in the past with cheap pots and inserts. I highly recommend this item as a great compact alternative to the huge pot and steamer basket of the past. The only problem is that the timer only works one way: you can increase the time but you can’t decrease the time, so if your food is finished before the timer runs out, you have to unplug the unit from the wal, and let the timer time out. It’s not that big of a deal. I still love this unit.

When the box showed up it seems really small but it’s actually really well packed and very compact when it’s packed for storage but when you open it up there’s lots of room for food to cook.

Es muy funcional, tiene un buen tamaño para preparar alimentos cocidos para 2 o 3 personas, la usamos sobre todo para verduras y se limpia muy facilmente. Mi unica recomendacion es que tengan cuidado con los vetabeles, manchan mucho pero si se pueden limpiar despues.
