Love this for veggies!
I bought this at a show and loved it the first time I used it. Very easy to use. Wash the veggies, sprinkle seasonings over them and place in the microwave for a couple minutes. Let steam til desired tenderness (approx 3 minutes for me) and then serve. Fabulous every time. Easy to clean.
Also, this is great for making rice. Recommend to eveyone.
Works as advertised, but breaks easily
To date we have been through three Pampered Chef microwave cookers, one small and two large. All have had the lid fasteners crack and break, and finding a replacement hasn't been easy. This isn't a case of daily use over years either, I'd estimate 20-30 uses each over a year or less for each one. I like the product, it works great, but with such a short life of use, it's hard to recommend to anyone.
Sturdy, convenient, and great for veggies
I've had this item for several years and I love it!! Most veggies take about three minutes to microwave perfectly. Most commonly I cook broccoli in this steamer. Just sprinkle a few drops of water into the container, toss in the veggies, and cook for 3 minutes. Then you strain it with the lid on. No hassle.
My newest recipe is for Brussels sprouts. Trim and quarter them, then steam for 4 minutes in this container. Make a sauce using olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, seeded German mustard. Salt and pepper. Toss the mixture over the cooked Brussels sprouts. It was a huge hit at a recent potluck and everyone seemed surprised I had cooked it in a microwave.
