Salter 3 Tier Electric Food Steamer - 7.5L, Stackable Steaming Baskets, Dishwasher Safe, BPA Free Includes Rice Bowl, 60 Minute Timer, Compact Storage, Healthy Cooking Vegetables & Fish, 500W, EK2726

Great steamer and compact there's plenty of room for food. The option of using one, two or three baskets is beneficial. The timer is a bonus too. I placed quartered tattys in bottom basket then in the 2nd one I had cabbage and carrots together, set timer 20 mins and while food is being steamed you can potter on. I think you'd have to be careful when washing as the plastic baskets don't seem very thick, however, they're strong enough to hold plenty of food. Would be better if there was a buzzer or 'ding' when time was up but the light on the base does goes off when finished. Very easy to use and would recommend.

Steams food well easy to clean and has a timer you can set for steaming different foods. The plastic containers are easy to clean and plenty bigger enough to hold a good quantity of vegetables

Had this for 6 months now. Capacity is good for 2 or 3 people, but I do often steam potatoes and they do take up more room. The bowls feel quite flimsy, and cannot be put in dishwasher, but so far are lasting well. Is quite easy to clean by hand, anyway. My previous steamer was the Morphy Richards 48755, which was larger, so I am comparing to that. Smaller size is good for storage and its light and easy to put in/take out of cupboard. The base for water capacity in the Salter is smaller, so you have to watch the water level more, but you can cook potatoes without having to top up. What is better with the Salter is that the bowls are all the same size, using separate rings to hold and support them, so you can easily swap bowls around to different levels, which helps if the top bowl is not cooking as fast as the bottom one. (the Morphy Richards were differing size bowls). A minor point but I saw someone else mention it, is that this Salter steamer does not make audible ping sound when the timer finishes, but you can hear a small noise as it clicks off, so its not a big deal. With the steamer (and any steamer, really) what I like is that I can put something like potatoes onto to cook, then leave them, knowing they won't boil away to a mush, and I also use it to keep veg warm, without over cooking anything. One extra aspect is that this steamer is very low wattage, so very economical to run.

Great steamer love to steam my veggies and great for steaming rice. Easy to use and clean.

Bought my first Salter steamer 4 years ago, since then it has been 100% reliable, used several times a week to steam vegetables and has never let me down. I just fancied a brand new one and will keep the old one as extra if needed. It’s very easy to clean. The baskets may look flimsy but in fact are very sturdy, dishwasher proof, doesn’t take up much room in the kitchen.A very good product at a very reasonable price, I can highly recommend this steamer.

We bought it about a month ago. As for size, it’s perfect for a 1-2 people dinner, definitely not more. We cook only fish and vegetables in it, so the cooking time isn’t more that 15 minutes, but, unfortunately, every time when used it leaks quite a lot, the whole kitchen table is covered with water. Unfortunatelly it is not great quality.

I received the steamer yesterday and I must say it is a brilliant appliance,easy to use and also to clean,excellent all round in my opinion.

Really good and easy to use, lightweight steamer baskets but be mindful of the steam when removing baskets, likewise the hot water left within the base afterwards - allow it to cool before emptying the water out.Definitely keep out of reach of kids and away from the worktop edge, stability is questionable as it’s tall and narrow. Don’t try to move it once it’s in use!We recently had our gas boiler removed and replaced with an Air Source Heat Pump so it seemed pointless paying a gas standing charge for just our cooker rings (ovens are electrical) and our gas fire which we don’t use anyway. I needed a way to cook things that we used to use the gas rings for, this steamer was bought to tied us over until we have a new kitchen in a years time. It is brilliant, easy to use it’s got a lot of power and does steam beautifully and even. You can cook enough for 4 people with Sunday Dinner servings. As an added bonus we can take this camping with us as we have an inverter in our van. Electric hook up. It’s already paid for itself in the 2 months since we had the gas capped off and removed by our supplier and the portable induction job we’ve also bought.
