Oster Sangerfield Stainless Steel Cookware, 3.0-Quart Dutch Oven w/Steamer Basket

Love my steamer! I use it all the time. It cleans up great and holds a lot of veggies!

Functionality, space saving. Good quality. Very pleased. I been cooking for years and I've never had a pan like this, I've needed one multiple times but just made due. So glad I finally bought one!!

Nice double boiler. I’m pleased with my purchase.

Dad and grandpa here. I frequently cook for the grandkids and encourage them to eat veggies. I use to use a bamboo steamer but this is so easy to use . I love that it can go into the dishwasher and the lid fits both the pot and basket so it can be used to cook other products. I gave it 4 stars because I wish it was a bit bigger!

Lovely Oster steamer. Cooking and storage capacity is 3 quarts can't wait to use. Will hold enough vegetables for family of 4. I trust this product as I trust my Oster blender that has glass and steel housing making it durable and safe. I have not used as of yet but like FRESH vegetables that I can eat that are NOT too soft and maintain their vitamins and minerals and not lost in water. There is no smell to product. It's stainless steel so probably won't rust. Versatile as the bottom can be used without strainer, lid is ventilated, and fits BOTH pans. I wash ALL stainless steel by hand as dishwasher detergent has propensity to dull stainless steel.

1. It is stainless steel and machine washable; however, the dishwasher and detergent will probably discolor it after a while. Personally, I care that it works, not what it looks like.2. It is very light, which it should be. It's just for boiling water. No reason to have pounds of metal.3. Even though it's light it seems durable. I think you'd have to whack it pretty hard to dent it.4. The pans are not as tall as expected. This could be an issue it you are boiling for a long time, you might need to replenish the water. Also, if you don't want the water from the bottom bubbling up into the food in the top then you will want to avoid putting much water in it.5. Even though it's shorter than expected it holds a lot of food. When I put a one-pound bag of frozen mixed vegetables in it, it looks like I could fit two more bags if necessary.6. The handles seem sturdy. They get hot so you will need pot-holders.7. The lid rattles sometimes but spinning it a little usually gets rid of the rattle.8. A lot of steam escapes from where the two pans meet. Not sure how much that matters though.It's almost as good as the aluminum one I had for years until I melted it to the stove. I think it's nearly perfect and for the price I don't know why you wouldn't buy it. At least, it is nearly perfect for the way I use it (I throw frozen veggies in it and maybe a piece of fish, sausage, or shrimp and dinner is done 15 to 20 minutes later) but maybe you have different criteria.

It arrived, I opened the boxes, removed the contents and assembled everything together. The lid fit the strainer but the strainer was not steady on the pot's top. I washed everything and then I put water in the pot, heated it up, carefully balanced the strainer on top of the pot, added some frozen pork dumplings, put the lid on top and waited for the food to steam. It did what it was supposed to do but the pot and strainer don't set well together.Then I put the lid on the pot. It didn't sit good because the pot was bent or warped. I did what I could to try and rebend/warp the pot to make it round again. I think I succeeded but its still not a snug fit.I'm going to chalk it up to poor craftsmanship and cheap ass materials.But, for 22 bucks and some change, I will make it work. I guess I shouldn't have used it. I don't know. I need my meds.

This steamer is great for reheating when the microwave doesn’t quite get the food equally warm. Plus it’s healthier to steam it.
