  • Can make more rice than 2 cups: 3
We have had a Hamilton beach steamer from the 90’s that always made great rice. So much so I kept buying old ones on eBay every time one broke. I decided a week back when the last one broke that I needed to try a new design and settled on this. The old Hamilton Beach had a rice bowl that could make 3 cups of rice. The Nestor unit comes with just a 2 cup bowl. Stacking the two plastic surrounds with no center allows the old Hamilton beach 3 cup rice bowl to fit with lots of extra room. So the next question was “would the water reservoir hold enough water to run 1 hour, the time to cook 3 cups of brown rice?” Filling the reservoir to the top, we tried it the 3 cup setup out. Success! It worked and there was still a little water left. What is amazing to us is this unit works great and uses about 40% less water than our old one. That translates into less steam in the kitchen. Over 25 years, we’ve gone thru 6 or 7 of the old Hamilton beach units. Hoping this design holds up better than that one did. Sorry to be so single purpose in my review but we bought it exclusively to make rice the way we have done for 25 years and it delivered and it is easy to clean up when done. ... show more

  • The best (reviewed: it lasts no more than 2 years)
It is easy to clean, bacteria resistant, easy to use (just pour water). It is a bit small but you it has a double decker. It is also very affordable. Update 3/15/2021: The unit seems to last no more than 2 years. I use it every day. This is my second unit and it lasts no more than 2 years. It just stops working after 2 years. ... show more

  • Works Well
Should have bought one of these be for. The first time I did vegs, I got them way to done. Didn't take long to figure out the times for things. Rice did take about 55 mins. so don't be in a hurry for that. I would by this again.

  • great value and versatile
I ordered it for sanitizing baby bottles, works with tall bottle and takes up to 6 bottles per round. It takes a very small footprint and easy to setup. Heating was not that fast - it heats up the entire puddle of water until they boil to generate steam. But for me I just turn on the timer and walk away, so that is not a big deal. It was on back order so I waited 3 weeks before I got it. ... show more

  • This is THE BEST rice cooker EVER !!!
This steamer/cooker steam cooks every type of rice I use to perfection ; it’s simple to use, set up and clean up after use. No more crusty or scorched rice like the more expensive other rice cookers I’ve bought and tried in the past ! It has the capacity to steam veggies , etcetera in a separate dish along with the rice so that a full meal cooks at the same time. I mainly use this just for making rice, primarily, and I recommend it to anyone who likes rice cooked right 👌 ... show more

  • So Far... it's working well enough to at least meet reasonable expectations
I'm not trying to come across as blasé in my opinions re: this electric steamer, but neither can I feign enthusiasm about it -- it just is what it is and it does what it claims its designed to do, nothing spectacular, and that's neither a diss nor a ringing endorsement. I've used it off and on over the past month and a half since having purchased it (having been significantly steered in this product's direction after contrasting the "negative" issues that were mentioned in other reviews of the various similar appliances offered by different manufacturers, and gaining the satisfaction that this particular one seemed as though it would raise the fewest of concerns with me of all of the steamers found in this more "economical" price range). Thus far, the extent of my usage has been to steam frozen crab legs and various arrays of fresh produce... including steaming leafy greens, and it does a fine enough job, but I was under the impression that steaming food would be equate to considerably faster cooking than boiling, which I've often not found to be the case, but there's the plus of not having so much of the "good stuff" leaching out in the steaming process as opposed to boiling water. If I were to share what are [to me personally] a list of gripes, or at least perceived 'shortcomings' of this unit, it would relate to the following: [1] - I do not like not having any sort of an audible "session complete" indicator -- again, I'll admit that I was wanting something a bit more "on-the-cheap," but even so I think it should have at the very least a little 'bell ding' at the timer dial's conclusion (which would be very helpful for those of us with short attention spans who have a burning need to engage in other activities away from the kitchen while long-cook food is being made); [2] - I'm not a fan of those plastic discs with the small series of punched-out holes across them ~ I'd have much more preferred discs that were more mesh/wire-like in design so that the steam produced would have the benefit of taking advantage of maximum volume without needing to "squeeze through" a few little tiny holes; [3] - I'm quite fearful that the clear plastic would likely prove very delicate and fragile, so I'm always playing it with a healthy bit of caution to ensure that I'll never have to find out in some unfortunate mishap just how weak and brittle they just may actually be; and [4] - a "water level" indicator of some sort would've been nice... but, again, buying "on-the-cheap," only so much could be reasonably expected, especially given its very basic design. As for some "positives": [1] - I keep expecting this thing to leave large pools of water on my counter tops, but impressively, despite its design and fit which immediately leaves you with that anticipated gut expectation, all of the condensation that is produced inside (excepting what which escapes through the lid vents) remains inside; and [2] the ease of cleaning cannot be overstated. As I'm writing this review, this EXACT SAME UNIT is being featured as being branded by "OVENTE" as Amazon Order Number ASIN B0831SCHG8 ... not sure if one or the other is involved in some sort of "knock-off" deal or if this may perhaps be part of some "licensing" arrangement. I bring this up because as I've come to leave my views on this "NESCO" steamer, I've found that its availability is (at least for the time being) now relegated to a couple of outside vendors who are charging for this same item nearly and over TWICE what I'd originally purchased it for, the latter of which just so happens to be almost the exact same price as being offered by the "OVENTE" version... so maybe look into that one if interested. ... show more

  • This steamer is awesome for what I needed it for
I looove this steamer and definitely the price...!! I needed it for my hot dog buns.... I placed a few buns in the top steamer first and it took a lil too long for the steam to reach the buns...(my hot dogs were already done waiting separately) so I placed them in the bottom steamer and in less than a minute they were ready... not only were they perfectly warm....but also sooo soft and the buns did NOT get hard at all.....!! I heated (and ate) three hot dogs and all three rolls stayed super soft and warm...I highly recommend this..... I can't wait to try a turkey and cheese sandwich next...!! ... show more
