Essential item for any kitchen
This steamer is great from heating up Chinese fluffy buns to cooking fresh broccoli. Easy to use and easier to clean up. Stores well like a Russian Matryoshka doll. Highly recommended for any kitchen

Easy to use steamer
I love how you can set the timer. My old steamer (was 15 yrs old & still worked) didn’t have one. Can also cook so much with the 3 layers.

Healthy and Easy
I had one prior to this, but I killed the element - human error!! It is so good and easy to use, I got another one the next day. I have learned my lesson. It really is easy, I am just that silly. I used to use a microwave steamer, but this is so much quicker and leaves veggies in much better shape - they taste better, too. I am a lazy ‘cook’ who rarely at fresh for dinner. Now I eat veggies most nights and it is honestly, thanks to this steamer. Gz, I sound like one of those corny endorsements…

Q: Is the 9 litre capacity on this Russell Hobbs steamer enough for a full family meal?
A: Yes. The 9 litre total capacity spread across 3 tiers suits batch cooking or a simple family meal with vegetables, rice and fish or chicken cooked separately. Capacity is shared across the baskets, so bulky items reduce the usable space in each tier.
Q: Can this Russell Hobbs 3 tier steamer cook different foods at the same time?
A: Yes. The 3 tier layout lets you steam different foods in separate baskets at the same time, which helps when cooking vegetables, seafood or dumplings together. Foods still need similar steaming times, or one tier may need to be added later.
Q: What does the 800W power rating mean in everyday use for this food steamer?
A: The 800W element is designed for typical home steaming, with enough power to heat the baskets efficiently for vegetables, fish and reheating. It is not a pressure cooker, so dense foods and larger portions will still take longer than boiling or pressure cooking.
Q: Are the steaming baskets on this model easy to store when not in use?
A: Yes. This model uses stackable BPA-free steaming baskets, so the tiers can nest down more neatly than fixed basket designs when stored in a cupboard. The stainless steel base remains separate, so it still takes more space than a compact single-tier steamer.
Q: Does the built-in timer make this Russell Hobbs steamer suitable for hands-off cooking?
A: Yes. The built-in timer is useful for set-and-steam cooking, especially for vegetables, rice-style sides or fish that do not need constant stirring. It is still best to check doneness near the end, because basket load and food thickness affect steam times.
