Vegetable Steamers Baskets for Cooking Stainless Steel, Folding Steamer Insert Fits Various Size Pot and InstaPot Pressure Cooker (7"-11")

I'd never used a steamer or steaming basket prior to buying this. It's only because I had to cook some bao buns that I went ahead and purchased this, in lieu of a more expensive bamboo steaming basket. I'm very glad I did because not only did this steam the bao buns very well, I now use it for basically all of the veg I used to boil or semi steam in a saucepan.You have to assemble the middle section of the basket yourself, but helpfully you're supplied with a small screwdriver and some spare screws. The whole build is fantastic, with very strong metal "leaves", with a slight brushed metal effect. They open up easily, with no snags, and it fits to the size of a large saucepan. The legs allow a decent amount of water to be simmering underneath, and it fits a good amount of veg.After steaming new potatoes and then asparagus I'm now pretty much hooked to the process and will now steam whatever it's possible to steam. It leaves veg tasting so much sweeter and crisper, and you don't get the leeching of nutrients like you do when boiling it. All in all this is brilliant and built to last.

Does what says it on the tin and is good value for the money.

My dad loves this it makes it so much easier to steam veg it saves time and how many pots and pans you use. With only having to cook 2 meals now and the vegetables taste so much nicer steamed than boiled And it stores really easily too..

Bought this as a replacement of an old one. This is a bit more expensive but much better quality. I like the size as it can fit into my smallest sauce pan.

In Amazon's November 2020 'Black Friday' sale I bought a heavily-discounted 5.7 Litre 'Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker' after reading rave reviews about them. It took me a while to work through the differences between cooking by immersion (where food is covered by a broth) vs steaming (where food is suspended over a small amount of liquid (almost always just plain water) needed to create the steam required to pressure cook.Fast forward to mid-late 2022... and this Instant Pot (and a second one I bought via Amazon in April 2021) is now my cooking appliance of choice. I stopped using my oven late-2021 (not energy efficient, slow and difficult to clean) then had a mild flirtation with a halogen air fryer (much faster but still tedious to clean), now also no longer used. I can't even remember when I last used my microwave (faster still, but fiddly... although excellent at omelettes and fritatas) and am now so familiar with my Instant Pot that I rarely refer to the collection of Instant Pot 'recipes' I found then adapted to my own culinary preferences.One thing I learned quickly was that the trivet supplied with the Instant Pot is inadequate for suspending vegetables... and I just loved vegetables that had been steamed, not boiled. Cobs of corn were OK because they're big... but smaller sliced vegetables, and any garnish like mixed herbs, just fell through the trivet... so I bought a couple of different types of steamer basket to sit on top of the trivet... then an expanding 'butterfly-type' stainless steel one that didn't need a trivet because it had its own legs to keep it standing above the water.After a year, this favourite steamer basket failed through over-use... one of its legs kept collapsing into the water in the Instant Pot's inner pot, which was obviously not ideal... I wanted 'steamed', not 'boiled'.Long story short... this replacement 'butterfly-type' expanding circular stainless steel steamer basket is better than the one I had previously. It's very simple to use... just expand its circular basket 'wings', plop all your ingredients into its embrace, drop into your Instant pot then steam away with a cup full of water. Once steamed, remove using its built-in handle. What could be more simple? Easy to clean afterwards, it has already stood up well to its *very* regular usage.

Very happy with this at first but unfortunately, as other reviewers have found, the stand legs become so flimsy and collapse when inserted into a pan or any base meaning it has to be propped up by something else.

This basket has rubber pads on the feet so no risk of scratching the bottom of the pan over time and in storage which I have done with my other steamer baskets.Haven't used it yet but quality looks great and customer service were brilliant at sorting out a minor issue immediately.

I love it very easy to use and clean and you can use in different sizes so far so good thanks

Ich habe schon vieles ausprobiert und zig Geld an Geräten verbrasst.Mit diesem Einsatz jetzt ist alles wunderbar! Einfach und individuell zu bedienen. Ohne elektrisch unnötigem Schnick Schnack der sowieso auf Dauer nur Probleme macht.Die einfachsten Dinge sind oftmals die Besten.Einzig, was ich zu bemängeln habe: der Halter in der Mitte düfte gerne noch etwas länger sein. Da muss man dann schon aufpassen dass einen der heiße Dampf nicht erwischt.Das Gerät lässt sich problemlos säubern auch in der Spülmaschine. Es kann platzsparend verstaut werden.Lieber manchmal altmodisch und einfach als der ganze neumoderne Mist, der nur überteuert und was für faule Leute ist.

Cette marguerite est de belle facture (qualité et solidité). La poignée est très utile pour la relever. Les pieds sont hauts et stables. A voir dans la durée, surtout que la poignée est amovible. Seul petit bémol (qui lui coûte une étoile), elle est assez massive et haute (vu les pieds), du coup, il faut prendre une plus grande casserole pour la même contenance que certaines autres plus fines et aux pieds moins sophistiqués.

Anstatt eines Dampfgarer -Topfes habe ich mich für diesen Einsatz entschieden. Er ist prima. Hochwertig, einfach in der Handhabung und Reinigung. Vor allem Platzsparend.

Las verduras en espexcial se hacen de maravilla.

Schön, dass es Soetwas noch gibt. Funktioniert bestens und passt in jeden meiner Töpfe.
