  • 2019 DESIGN FAIL!
Style Name: Cooker
FASTA PASTA IS NOW A FAIL! What once was awesome, now fails horribly. I love spag. And I don't know how to spell the rest of it so blah! But, this wonderful device may not look like much, but it has made my life so much easier and I eat far cheaper now. $10 can literally feed me for a week or more. UPDATE I lost the one I bought before. It was awesome. So I bought a new one this January 2019. It's different. Thicker. The foam comes out the top lots more. Makes a mess. While it still works, and I will continue using it, this version doesn't work as well as the one I had. And the lid doesn't snap on like the older one. Update: After daily use since I bought my second one, it's started getting an orange tint. The first one never changed color. The top doesn't fit snug. The first one did. If you check the lid and the bottom, and you don't see a "1", then yours will likely fail like this second one is doing. My first one had a "1" on the lid and bottom. This one has a "2" on both parts. I had to spend an additional $20 on a large microwave platter for this newer one to drip in. Most of the water pours out the sides. The spaghetti comes out rubbery. One end all sticks together. The first version cooked the same spaghetti flawlessly with no mess. Not version "2". This isn't what I paid for. And TBH, if I knew where the bottom of version "1" was, I'd throw this garbage away. FASTA PASTA IS NOW A FAIL! You'll get your "5-STAR" rating when/if I get what I paid for. ... show more

  • (UPDATED 16 Aug, 2017) Great Microwave Pasta For 1 Or 2, Quick & Easy Cleanup, Good Instructions, Uses Less Water
Style Name: Cooker
I live alone and find I use the microwave for a lot of my cooking. I use the microwave for steaming veggies, rice, and now with this simple tool pasta! The Fasta Pasta makes microwave cooking pasta for one much easier. When I want pasta it's quick and easy and the draining lid means a little less cleanup. It is just the right length for grocery store spaghetti/linguini. There are holes in the top for measuring one or two portions (it will cook up to 4). There are lines on the side help get just the right amount of water for 1 to 4 portions. All well thought out for the microwave cook. The 1 page brochure includes example cooking times for different types and portions of pasta and also warns that you will likely need to make adjustments for your own microwave. In my case I cook gluten-free pasta. There are lots of brands and tastes differ so another may be your first choice. I cooked a mainly rice GF fettuccine and using the guidelines in the brochure it came out great. The lid is used to measure portions and as a sieve to drain the cooked pasta. It is NOT used during cooking! This was not obvious to me before reading the instructions which are short, sweet and worth reading. Measure pasta (place in bottom), add water to the line for your number of portions, pop it into the microwave for the appropriate time, put on the lid, drain and serve. Easy Peasy! Cleanup was very easy and I recommend that if you don't wash it right away, fill it with water and a couple drops of dish detergent. When I do this cleanup after eating is quick and easy. I use my hands, not a dishwasher, though it is top-shelf safe. In conclusion, I didn't expect too much from the Fasta Pasta and my expectations were thoroughly exceeded. It is clear they designed in with clear thought about how it would be used. From the water lines, pasta portion holes, strainer or simple directions it's designed with the microwave cook in mind. Most of all, my results have been excellent and very tasty. That a 5 star performance in my cook-for-1 kitchen. UPDATE 16 Aug, 2017: I used my Fasta Pasta last night for GF angel hair pasta and then mixed in some pesto after it was done. Usually I'm cooking for just myself and I have been loving this easy to use and clean pasta cooker more and more. Before Fasta Pasta I only made pasta rarely and now I enjoy it several times a week. The Fasta Pasta is quick, precise (one or two serving size measuring holes in the top) and easy: just how I like things. Since I've adjusted timings for my microwave my results are consistently excellent and that's the bottom line for me. Fasta Pasta is still is exceeding my expectations! One thing I found out with the Fasta Pasta is there is very little water to pour off when done compared to using a pot on the stove. The water measurements are pretty precise and when done there is very little extra water used. Another plus for me. A TIP: I found helps save time is as you've dumped the pasta from the Fasta Pasta rinse and quickly wash the lid and the bottom. When I let it sit till after dinner the pasta residue has started to stick to the plastic much more. This turned out to make cleaning the Fasta Pasta even easier. ... show more

  • Great pasta cooker! Follow instructions!
Style Name: Cooker
This is an excellent, easy way to make pasta, taking just 12 minutes in the microwave for a serving. It's true that 12 minutes seems longer on microwave time than it does when you're busy making the pasta the traditional way, but in reality, the time is cut in at least half when you take into account waiting for the water to boil. It's important to follow the instructions though and not use the lid in the microwave. Doing so won't hurt the product; it's simply that the container and lid will be just a bit too hot to handle when draining the pasta after you remove it. I found this out the hard way when I dropped my serving while trying to drain :). The cold lid, however, lets you pick up the container and it drains extremely well, pour into a bowl and it's perfect-cooked pasta every time. The measuring holes also keep me from eating too much, or wasting it. A serving is perfect, and lets me know exactly how much I'm eating. Just one or two minor drawbacks that, in my opinion, are not worth taking away a star. First, of course, you can't really add sauce halfway through cooking which makes a difference between good pasta and great pasta. Second, some people like to add salt to their pasta water to enhance flavor. If you do, you may need to cook it a bit longer than what it says on the guide, because salt, of course, raises the boiling point of your water a bit. But for what it's made for, cooking pasta quickly, easily, and with minimal water and pot/strainer use, this is a really great product!! ... show more

  • Don't waste your money
Style Name: Cooker
Does cook pasta; however, all the water boils out and into your microwave. If you use this, you'd better place a towel underneath to catch all the water or it will flood your microwave
