5.0 out of 5 stars
A dieter's best friend,

This review is from: Progressive International Microwavable Mini Steamer (Kitchen)
I love, love, love this little contraption. I have a Black and Decker steamer, which works well too, but I can't stand the cleanup on those things. You have to take it apart, try and get all excess material out of the grid, try to wash the base without immersing the electrical cord...even with the metal in-basket steamers you come across the same messy cleanup involving two or three pieces and/or pots and pans. Which, I suppose, wouldn't be a problem for someone wanting to make several servings of steamed veggies, but when it's just you...you don't want the hassle. With this little steamer (which is about the same size as most cereal bowls) I can make individual portions of veggies in a matter of minutes in the microwave. Which is good because I like to shake it up a bit on my seasonings and this gives me the flexibility of making different flavors each time. I just sprinkle on the toppings before zapping the items. Cleanup is where it really, really shines. The slits in the plastic aren't as hard to clean as a grid or those metal steaming baskets that seem to trap everything in their folds. Just immerse in water and clean like a regular bowl. And with only a tablespoon or two of water added before cooking, there's less chance of "drowning" your food. Always a good thing. Can't say enough good things about this steamer.

4.0 out of 5 stars
good product,
By Heather (Irving, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Progressive International Microwavable Mini Steamer (Kitchen)
This is a great product, especially for a smaller family. I would have given it 5 stars but the directions are a little lacking. It has to have a fair amount of water in it (not just a couple of tablespoons) but it works very well.

I bought this for using at work to have a healthier
alternative to the cafeteria. It does the job and makes the right amount of steamed vegetables for a single serving. I'd estimate it takes at least about 1 1/2 cups raw veggies by volume if not a little more. I followed the directions and put inside the measured amount of recommended water, but now I just turn on the faucet and put in what looks about the same as the measured amount. I also reduce the power on the microwave to a medium high and follow the recommended minutes for the different veggies. I wrote on the bottom with a permanent ink pen the recommended times and water amount as a reminder for myself. After microwaving the directions say to keep the steamer closed for a few minutes. So far I've steamed broccoli/cauliflower/carrots and green beans in it with perfect results. Made in China
