Product Description
Oster's tiered food steamer is equipped with instant steam so you can start cooking immediately. It has a combined, 6-qt. capacity (3.8-qt. and 2.3-qt. bowls) and comes with fully collapsible steaming trays for easy cleaning. The large bowl includes eight egg holders for making soft or hard cooked eggs. It also has an external water fill system with a see-through reservoir: monitor the water level and you'll never run out of steam! The LCD display has a 95-minute timer. Cooking can be delayed for up to 12 hours, and with the Keep Warm setting, your food will stay warm while you prepare the rest of the meal. About Oster... in 1946, the first Osterizer?? Blender was introduced to kitchens across America. With its popularity came new products: the portable mixer, deep fryer, meat grinder and citrus juicer, each offering ease and convenience to people's busier than ever lifestyles.

5 out of 5 stars NO KITCHEN SHOULD BE WITHOUT   January 3, 2009
What a great product!!! We use ours weekly at least! For one steaming food is a very health alternative to other ways of cooking and this does the job very well and the fact that it can stack allows you to cook twice as much with just one unit. It also cooks rice for you in a breeze and comes with the container to cook it in. The only con is it can be hard to clean if you don't clean it right away.


1 out of 5 stars LOVE the idea...   December 31, 2008

I really wanted a steamer! So when I received this one for Christmas, I was so excited. Until, that is, I examined it further.

It's made w/ a #7 plastic (usually polycarbonate), commonly found in
baby bottles, microwave ovenware, eating utensils, and plastic coating for metal cans.
Reason why it's BAD: Made with biphenyl-A, a chemical invented in the 1930s in search for synthetic estrogens. A hormone disruptor. Simulates the action of estrogen when tested in human breast cancer studies. Can leach into food as product ages.

I called Oster and spoke w/ a supervisor, and specifically asked whether he could confirm the product was BPA free. He could not. He also told me to do what I would like w/ the info he gave me - either keep and use the appliance, or return it. I'll be doing the latter.

This is a super steamer. All my friends own it, and everybody is very happy!
I bought this as a gift to my friend, and she is very happy. Tomorrow I am invited to her place to taste the dinner she is going to make using this steamer... :)



5 out of 5 stars Love it   December 7, 2008
I use this mostly as a rice cooker and it is fantastic. I have used it to cook 2 1/2 cups of rice (dry) and I don't know if I would put much more in there. Because it is a steamer it can also cook sticky rice which is the reason I purchased this model, I wanted the ability to cook rice and to use the steam feature for sticky rice. I have used it to steam vegetables as well. The nice thing about it is that clean up is simple, you set the machine and can walk away and do other things without having to monitor it. I highly recommend it.


5 out of 5 stars One of the best ways to get steamed   December 5, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The top ranked steamer here is the Oster and probably for good reason. It is a good value for the price.
Background: I have had a Rival steamer for about 20 years. It is ultimately simple and has been easy to use, however it has zero controls. You plug it in and it works until the water is gone. The way you time your cooking is by how much water you add. It is solid and easy to clean. It finally gave up and lately would only cook by turning on and off when it felt like it.
The choice: It looks like almost every steamer is made on the same assembly line. I am amazed that there are not more choices for a product so many people choose to own. After looking at them all, I chose the Oster. I have had a Oster blender for many years and have been satisfied with its performance.
First impressions: The Oster is certainly cheaper in construction than my old Rival. The plastic is much thinner and it gives the impression that there are way too many parts and if those parts break the whole thing is no longer usable.
Operation: There is no doubt the Oster outperforms my old Rival. The steam starts faster and it is much more dense. It also is very silent compared to the Rival that had a loud whistle. The controls are easy to use. I like being able to time my cooking.
Features: The one I like best is that the Oster goes into a "keep warm" mode after cooking. I had asparagus spears in it today and they kept for more than 30 minutes while I prepared deviled eggs and they were still warm and perfectly steamed. Speaking of eggs, I have never steamed eggs to hard boil them before but this feature could be worth the whole price of the steamer. After 18 minutes I had perfectly hard boiled eggs with the yolk in dead-center. You actually can tell the difference, these were the best hard-boiled eggs ever, with no hint of cracked shells.
Downsides: The biggest error on Oster's part has been referred to several times here. The tiny filling spout is such a stupid idea! You can just as easily fill the main reservoir with water. I simply do not understand why they put so much effort into an external fill spout that leads into a small container that is not removable, and hence cannot be cleaned. I would have much preferred a clear window in the main reservoir to let me know how much water was left. I may not fear mold growing in the holding tank as much as some reviewers, but the whole idea is silly since the spout is way too small to use without spilling.
Compare to: The Oster really has no comparison, it is a better unit than the others at a reasonable price. It is not the most rugged appliance you will own but it looks like it will serve for several years.
