Tefal VC101616 is awful! 4 of 5 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from Ohnotefal 1 Star ()

Advantages Looks nice, cleans easy.

Disadvantages It has many disadvantages and once I have found the receipt I intend to return it.

I had an old steamer which I bought at a market for £10 but it got old and decided to purchase a new and more modern one. I thought this product ticked all the right boxes yet the first time I tried it instantly realised it was very dangerous. The first bowl is insecure in the unit and liable to topple over and if you do manage to secure it down you cant then get release it from the drip tray which can then be full of hot liquid, the drip tray appears to have grip indentations to enable you to lift it but this tray gets extremely hot - too hot to handle, the lid is not easy to hold either. I would not recommend it to anyone. I have gone back to using my old Rosemary Conley (digital with external re-fill spout, very sturdy - perhaps Tefal could learn a few things from her).

    Awful lot of detail is required. Any way you've made a start, that's what is important. Welcome to ciao and enjoy yourself here.
