Very Effective Steamer

Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2024

I recently purchased the Bella Two-Tier Steamer, and it has truly exceeded my expectations. The design of this steamer is not only sleek but also highly functional.

The two-tier feature allows me to steam multiple items simultaneously, saving me valuable time in the kitchen. The transparent steaming baskets make it easy to monitor the cooking process, ensuring perfectly cooked vegetables and proteins every time.

I appreciate the user-friendly controls, making it simple to adjust the steaming time and temperature. The compact size of the steamer is a bonus, as it doesn't take up much counter space yet provides ample room for steaming various ingredients.

Cleaning is a breeze with the removable and dishwasher-safe components. Overall, the Bella Two-Tier Steamer has become an indispensable addition to my kitchen, making healthy cooking a hassle-free experience. Highly recommended!

Good replacement but underpowered

Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2024

Bought this steamer as a replacement because we use it quite often. Not so sure about the oval shape of the food tray because the width is short and length is too long. It usually take about 15 min to steam eggs but Bella took 25 min for the whole egg to cook through. Tried a corn, again took longer. I am not sure if this is a design issue or a wattage issue but I think it has room to improve. The black water holding try is too shallow, after 25 min of steaming, I have to dump the water which is an inconvenience.

Will keep this unit because of its price but will reconsider when it's time for next replacement.

update: the timer stopped working today after 13 days use. called Amazon and plan for a return

Wonderful for making baby food!

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2024

Verified Purchase

I make my own baby food in relatively large batches, enough for about a whole week of feedings, sometimes two weeks. I had a Baby Bullet steamer, but I could only steam one thing at a time. One squash, one apple, one pear, one carrot. It took forever to steam enough to make a decent batch and it would take what seemed like hours to complete. I bought this one so I could just prep a bag of apples, carrots, whatever, just throw it in the steamer, and they would all be finished at once. I absolutely love this thing. It is easy to clean, the instructions are easy to follow, it comes with and instruction book that has steaming instructions for different foods. This thing has saved me SO much time and effort. I have sent the link to this product to my friends that have babies or are expecting babies as well.

Unexpectedly GOOD…..!!!

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2024

Received it, washed it, used it on the same hour. First use was on frozen roasted pork buns, and holy crap…it’s good!!! Traditional stovetop steaming takes about 20+ mins(for me) for the frozen buns. Now, a little over 10mins. Result, It looks better and tastes better. I thought it was glass, but it’s just plastic. Doesn’t bother me, as long as it can withstand the heat. Features are simple and easy to understand. Fill water and turn the knob to set timer(love the ticking sound) and wait…Will be using it for dinner dishes. So for me, I would say worth the money.

works well with lots of room to steam food; timer can't be adjusted once set

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2023

Verified Purchase

I purchased this steamer after our old vegetable steamer finally bit the dust. My wife and I didn't need more than a single-tier steamer, but I could not find one anymore, so I purchased this two-tier steamer. The steamer is big and has plenty of room for steaming pretty much anything you like. We use it mainly to steam cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots. It's easy to clean and operate.

My only complaint with this steamer is the built-in timer. The timer dial cannot be dialed back if you accidentally turn it beyond your desired time. So, if you do so, the timer cannot be adjusted, and you will have to mentally keep track of when to take out the food while the timer continues to run its course for whatever the set time was. It's annoying, especially if you're used to a timer that was specifically designed to be turned past the desired time and then turned back to it like our old steamer was. Also, the numbers on the timer are very small and difficult to read.

Overall, if you're cautious with the timer, this is a very good steamer at a very reasonable price. If it lasts as long as our prior steamer did, it should last a very long time.

A great steamer for a diabetic. Makes a great meal for 2. It’s the perfect size for us. Pretty solid and easy to use. Cleans up easy too. I would buy it again.

Makes the best fish!

Wow, I'd never tasted fish so good until I used a steamer. This is super easy to use. I have issues with my stove, so I loved the fact that this worked easily with electric on my counter top. I'm not sure why I was nervous about using it at first! I still need to explore meals with it more, but my first dish of fish laid on a bed of cabbage was perfect, fast and easy.

BEST way to fix hard boiled eggs!

Steam eggs for 18 minutes, let sit and peel at your leisure. 19 out of 20 times the shell practically falls off. I don't know why, but this is the only way I make them. Every week for several years... never fails me!

Full Steam Ahead!!!!!

Got tired of using the ol rice pot to steam my veggies.....decided to get the cheaper steamer vs. digital display. Money well spent on this.....use it weekly and very surprised that it will "boil" my eggs......after a few uses, notice water all over the counter and thought it was broken/cracked....of course i didnt read the directions and didnt realize the 2nd tier bin is bigger than the base.....once i figured out the smaller one goes on the bottom, i was all set....no more water issues....as stated in another review, the minute numbers on the dial s unreadable due to it being shiny chrome....but one close look and you will remember what they are......heck just turn it on and let it go.....also, it takes a minute for it to start steaming which is a lot quicker the rice pot.....overall, VERY HAPPY with this steamer.

An update to an old classic

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2024

Verified Purchase

This steamer is a replacement for a 25 year old Black and Decker.
I was surprised at the similarities - twin bowl capability, rice bowl,
analog timer, sonorous bell indicating end-of-cooking, catch basin
for the drained, condensed steam.
It cooks a lot faster than the old steamer, probably partially due to its
being new and tight,, but the heating element seems to be larger as well.
The only negatives I found with it were:
The indicators for suggested water levels were difficult to see as they
are the same color as the water bowl and thus blend in.
One must be at the same level as the timer dial to properly see it and
accurately set it.
Neither of these things is a big deal. I'm just really glad they're still making
steamers like this.
