- Excellent Product
This is an excellent bamboo steamer when you want to steam just a small quantity of food. Since it is small, you only need a small pan of water to generate the steam. I use it for thawing and cooking frozen and/or fresh vegetables. Quality and construction of the steamer is excellent
Rating: - My daughter loved the steamer
This steamer was a present for my daughter, Alex, for Christmas . She loved it and was surprised it was for 3 pieces.It was just what she wanted. Thank you.Judy
Rating: - a good bamboo steamer
This bamboo steamer is well-made and easy to clean and so far does not twist much in the drying.

- Why I like my old one better
Good qualitly, but...
My older one had bamboo handles that hung at the top of my pot.My older one was SLIGHTLY bigger, allowing me to easily steam corn that was broken in 2.It looks like I am back to World Market again to replace my 10-year-old broken bamboo steamer.(This one will never get the chance to get broken by me for as little as I use it.)
Rating: - new to steaming
this works great for someone new to steaming. Later I will probably get a bigger one. Have used this for veggies & fish. Clean-up is easy and the size works for a single person. Thanks for a quality product.
