This and a lid will transform any wok into a huge steamer, large enough to steam lobsters and Dungeness crabs, for example. It's inexpensive, well made, and exactly fulfills its purpose. The supplier was more than forthcoming and helpful. Delivery and packing were of the first order.

This steamer works well, but it's hard to remove small-cut vegetables/items from it since there's no handle. The steamer has a tendency to shift if you try and use a spoon or even tongs to remove the items and I don't want everything getting wet in the 1,000 degree water below especially my hands. It's very durable and will last a lifetime. I may "mickey mouse" a handle or a chain to make my life easier. Have a nice day.

At just over 10 1/4", it will basically sit at the bottom of the wok, so you can't get a lot of steam going, and it's certainly not a lot of surface area to work with. Since this was for a 14-16" wok, I was hoping for something 12" or wider.

Received steamer in an unpadded plain usps ennvelope which resulted it being bent in half with one edge crimped. Does not sit tight in wok. My husband offered to get his needle nose pliers to fix. also, photo shows steamer sitting in a wok but i thought the photo showed the steamer only which has convenient handles and a generous 2" edge. I was going to use with my bamboo steamer but now reluctant to use even to steam vegetables since it does not sit tight inside wok to the edge therefore releasing indirect steam not even on cooking surface. I received a very flimsy punch-holed piece of aluminum that i would never have paid any amount of money for. My husband could make one better.
