Advantages: easy to use and great to put on and walk away from with no problems, also very healthy.

Disadvantages: None

Wow definately try the Tesco value steamer. I managed to get mine for £6.99 about a year ago, and it is still going strong. And believe me I have given it a hard life, with loads of steaming nearly every day. I had never used a steamer before, until my friend recommended it to me one day, and i thought, oh well lets give it a go. I can honestly say that I have never looked back ever since. It is sooooooooooo easy to use, and I like the fact that it has a timer on it so you can put it on and walk away and forget about it, until it pings to let you know that it is ready. I am not the best cook in the world, especially when it comes to timings (usually my dinners end up burnt as i put them in the oven and then forget Ive put them in, until that is the smoke alarm reminds me). So for me, this little device is just excellent. Basically all you need to know is that to start with you remove all the plastic trays (which your veggies go into), and fill the bottom of the steamer with water (it is marked to which level to fill- idiot proof), then you place the deepest tray back in place. This tray is useful for the larger veggies i.e Broccoli or Cauliflower, then the other trays just sit on top of each other until you are all done, then you place the lid on top. There is also a container to place in the top tray for doing rice in but I have never been adventurous enough to try it. If you are worried about how long to put the timer on for, there is a fool proof list on the front of the steamer to tell you what needs what length of time. Its as easy as that, and definately worth investing in one. Its worth buying the Tesco value one first if you are unsure if you will use it or whether it will end up in the back of the kitchen cupboard never to be seen again!!

Summary: Ideal for the hectic of lifestyles, no time wasted watching pots and pans bubbling.
