Product Description

The Vegetable/ Seafood Steamer has a lid with a steam release vent. The removable trivet raises food for steaming vegetables. Gemstone is more efficient in transmitting microwave energy to the food than most glass or ceramic ware. This means even cooking and baking, less stirring and rotating and fewer hot and cold spots. This durable and chip proof pan will never melt or warp and is designed for freezer to oven to table to dishwasher use. This Vegetable/ Seafood Steamer is a versatile addition to any kitchen. Proudly made in the USA by Nordic Ware.

I've heard that steaming vegetables is much better for you than cooking them otherwise. This does a great job at it. It makes vegetables taste great, and works well. Easy to clean.

Most reviewers of this item are talking about the benefits of steaming which i agree is great but this steamer is not good. After the tupperware steamer I had for years got damaged in the dishwasher I bought this hoping it will last atleast half as long. Only after a few weeks of using it the steamer looks dull and dingy. The transparent lid is turning yellow. The plate provided to keep the vegetables inside the steamer looks slightly twisted and dull. All this after good care during washing and also I used it only a few times for light steaming less than 5 minutes. I am ready to throw it and buy a tupperware steamer again. By the way the tupperware steamer lasted for nearly 4 years for me and would have lasted more if it did not fall off the top of the dishwasher rack and got burnt by a coil in the bottom of the dishwasher.Do not buy this item the quality is very bad.
