Review: Microwave steamer - Very easy to use and clean , great products have a few from range , this one is a very good capacity for family or if love veggies . I use frozen sweetcorn/peas and then layer with fresh broccoli and mangetout , normally takes about five minutes , broccoli takes the longest so may want to give broccoli longer depending how soft u like it . That amount will give u a whole plate of veg . Other veg is ok to steam also play around with it to suit your tastes and quantities . It has a steam vent on top which must be open when using in microwave , nice sturdy base and clip and lock tabs for when in use , be careful lifting out after using as it will have boiling in water in bottom , need to check every few minutes as the water level goes down . Fill the bottom with cold water through the inner basket and then can see how much water is in there add veg and go beat results try and make carrot etc similar sizes so cooks evenly . Mine started to smell a bit of broccoli as I was always cooking that in it but better than half hour of it steaming or boiling on hob . Also freed up cooker space for other items . I wash and dry thoroughly before putting back together and stores neatly in my microwave when I’m not using . I have never steamed fish in it but would like to as I have a second idea likley just keep one for fish only . Prefer this to the electric steamer that I had as if I decide I need to use the outer tub for sausage rolls for a picnic I could just take out basket so versatile for other things if wanted to .
Review: A nice little streamer for the microwave. - I have had one of this type before and it works very well for steaming all my veg on one go, easy to clean too, it tell you how to use it but doesn't give any guidance on steaming times, I know what to do from experience, but it's not difficult to judge timing.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it come with a recipe book**
A: No, you will need to experiment with timings.  I only use my Sistema for cooking vegetables, and have found that cooking 3 different vegs the time takes about 15-20 mins depending how well you like your veggies done.  You need to try it and see.  I'm glad I bought mine.

**Q: Hi. Can you tell me the width and height of the inside tray, please? I'm interested in the 3.2L box for drying cheeses that have a 11.5 cm diameter.**
A: The tray has a spike in the middle and this would prevent your cheeses from lying flat. I measured it and the max diameter would be 10.5 cm

**Q: I tried to cook rice in my steamer and after 4 minutes the middle stem peice melted off, it still had quite a bit of waterin the bottom, and the rice didnt cook, what went wrong?**
A: Hi Jane, we didn't have much luck using the instructions which came with the steamer.  However, when I use the cooking instructions which came with my microwave (1000 watts) I get fantastic fluffy rice, I also find that any leftover remain fluffy.I cook 250g of basmati rice with 550ml of boiling water for 10 minutes. The rice needs to be stirred halfway through cooking.  Good Luck!

**Q: Does it come with an instruction book?  Also can you cook chicken breasts in it?**
A: i don't remember the instruction book, but it is really very simple to use it. chicken breast? sure you can.  i live in Italy and we Always use olive oil in our food. so, when you put water inside for the steaming, then add also some drops of good oil and some salt on the chicken, so it will be softer and really good. go ahead and....buon appetito!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bigger than it looks in the photo's
*by P***P on 31 August 2025*

It is 9 inches square x 3.5 inches deep. The basket is 8.25 inches square x 2.5 inches deep. They also stack perfectly if you have more than one. The usual good quality from Sistema, and does as advertised steams food perfectly. At first you need a bit of trial and error with your microwave as far as cooking times go,but it isn't dificult to get perfect results. Made to last years of normal use which will save on energy costs by using microwave cooking. I found by following the water level instructions it didn't fill the inside of the microwave with clouds of steam while in use. Very happy with my purchase.
