Customer Review: Deluxe Food Steamer
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using food steamers for about 10 years now. My old one works just fine but just a wee bit ago I realized that it was getting old and I thought maybe I should pick up a new one before this one goes belly up on me. So I started looking. I first came to Amazon just to see what was out there. I looked at every steamer in their rather large selection. The one I finally decided to buy was this Black & Decker HS2776. And at the time it only cost me $24.03. What a bargain. I should have ordered several at that price.
First my don't likes:
1) I can not see how much water is in the reservoir so I really just have to guess when I need to refill it. I have found that I need to check it about every 50 minutes. The timer can be set for 70 minutes but if I run it that long it will always be dry when I open it.
2) I have to turn it off and move the cooking tubs to refill it. This can be a wee bit of a trick. More so if one is using both cooking tubs. It can also prove to be painful. Even with the use of hot pads. I would recommend the use of cooking mittens during this process. Just trust me on this one there is really no need to find out on your own.
Now my likes:
1) The size has turned out to be a grand plus. It takes up so little counter space. I really like this. At first I thought it a wee small. But with the two stackable cooking tubs it holds about the same as my old one that was really quite large.
2) The two stackable cooking tubs. I usually only need one to fix a meal. I find now that I am cooking and wasting much less. If I need the extra room to cook more it is available but I am not as temped to cook more than I need.
3) It has a drip tray. This is nice. My old steamer did not have one. When one cooked greasy items the grease dripped down into the water reservoir and made cleaning a bit of a grunge. With this one it is so easy to empty the drip tray and wash it up. I love how easy this is.
4) Cleanup is so easy. I can have it cleaned and ready to go again in less than one or two minutes. Really. I clean it in the sink with a wee of dish soap and a sponge. There is no need to take up dishwasher space with it.
5) The Price. I paid $24.03 for this one. ( I should have purchased several at this price. ) It is now $33.02. And a bargain at that price as well. Really. What a great price.
So if you are thinking of trying steaming for the first time and want an inexpensive introduction this is it. Inexpensive not cheep.
If you are thinking of giving a steamer to a friend or relative in a effort to help them eat more healthy, or just to let them enjoy the wonderful flavors of food that you have discovered, this is a wonderful way to indulge.
Also Black and Decker has a great customer service support system. Replacement parts and warranty issues are not something to worry about.
I really like this steamer. I gave it five stars even with my don't likes because I think it really deserves it. And for the price I really do not think you can beat it. In fact I can't imagine why anyone would want to spend anymore money for anything else.
