Advantages: Cooks faster than conventional steamers
Disadvantages: None

I just love this steamer... I have got a basic steamer but my mum has got this model and having tried it out, I really will get one soon... It's not a cheap steamer but it really does cook food quickly and evenly. There are three good-sized bowls including a 1.1 litre rice bowl and it even has an integrated egg rack. It also looks stylish with a visible water level guage and a water spout to make filling the steamer easy. Like I said, it ... Read review

Advantages: Compact and easy to use
Disadvantages: Another appliance on the side.

I keep getting all these different appliances but I have to leave them on the side or else I dont use them. Going in the cupboard everytime and then setting things up is such hassle. The steamer was a birthday present I enjoy cooking and prefer the healthier methods. It stayed in the box for a few months and then I got it out. I was dreading the size if the box was anything to go by, but surprisingly it was not that big. Probably the same room ... Read review

Advantages: Great tasting food
Disadvantages: none

This multilayered steamer allows you to cook many different foods without mixing the flavours. A concentrator round the heater causes rapid steam production without needing to boil the full quantity of water. It comes with three steaming dishes and a rice bowl. It now comes with a divider to cook two dishes in one container. Each of the dishes has indentations for cooking eggs (although I've never tried it) It has a timer with a bell for ... Read review

...weekend - I saw the Tefal Aqua Steamer for sale at £19 which is substantially less than the Argos price at Christmas when I bought one for my son! So I bought it direct from Tefal with a one year warranty. When I got home I unpacked it,washed it out and started to cook chicken and vegetables topped with a savoury white sauce. Except it wasn't like cooking - there was no need to stand over it. I set the time added the food and stood around for a while ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to cook crisp healthy vegetables
Disadvantages: Steam can scold

Free up hob and oven space with the steamer. Cauliflower, broccili and carrots mantain full flavour and goodness when steamed. You can cook rice and vegetables at the same time but you need to check the time required to cook them. Fish comes out well if cooked in foil. Escaping steam can be a hazard so take care when removing the food containers. Make sure you check cooking times on the steamer to avoid overcooking. The flavour of the food is ... Read review

Advantages: Very handy
Disadvantages: None

I have a Tefal Turbo Diffusion Gourmet Steamer, it is good as it has three basket layers, and each one has a removable floor. With it, being turbo diffusion it gives you instant steam, you can put the water in from the outside even while your food is cooking. It is good as you can cook so many things at once; it even has a removable stock-tray to keep the cooking juices. On it is an automatic timer, which has a bell that tells you when your ... Read review
