Steamers: buyer's guide

The choice between tasty and healthy food becomes especially acute when you have stomach problems. In order not to bring yourself to a state in which you have to eat only cereals without salt and butter, it is better to take action at the first signs, such as heartburn. And even for a completely healthy person, healthy nutrition will help to remain so in the future - which cannot be said at all about dishes from which vitamins have almost disappeared due to harsh heat treatment.

When using a steamer:

20-25% more vitamins remain in food than during regular boiling, not to mention frying.
The shape and taste of the products are better preserved, so there is no need to pepper and salt them generously.
There is no need to use oil, which reduces the calorie content of dishes.
Time is saved due to three things at once: you don’t have to cook in several stages, when one product is fried, then a second is added, they are all stewed, and so on; you can easily cook several dishes at the same time in different baskets; Cleaning a steamer is much easier than a frying pan.

And also: no carcinogens, strong odors, heating of the kitchen and burning, no need to constantly stand nearby and monitor the process. I really want to take one, or better yet, two? We will tell you further about what kind of steamers there are.

Which brand is better to choose a steamer?

The reputation of the manufacturer is important - it is difficult to expect high quality from an unknown Chinese company, it is much more likely that along with a cheap steamer you will also get a set of problems. Companies such as Gorenje, Kenwood, Moulinex or Zelmer are known for the quality of devices and assembly, although their products also have disadvantages.

The most famous brands: Philips, Tefal, AEG and some others are European manufacturers famous for the quality and thoughtfulness of their products. But the price of their products is quite high. You have to pay for quality, but you don’t have to suffer from numerous problems and the fragility of budget models. But even among inexpensive steamers, you can find something interesting - we will also consider, among others, the best budget steamer.

Types of steamers

A typical steamer consists of:

a base that contains all the electronic filling, as well as a water container from which steam will rise during cooking;
a tray for collecting water condensate and draining juice;
steam baskets - products will be cooked in them, usually from one to three.

The main division is into electric and gas. In our conditions, gas ones are more economical, but this is their only tangible advantage; in other respects, they are inferior - cooking with them lasts longer, and they are much simpler, without many additional functions of electric models. Therefore, we will consider electric ones.

What to look for when choosing a steamer?

In addition to the manufacturer and type, there are a number of other important parameters that you should focus on when choosing. This:

Control method

Steamers are also distinguished by the control method, of which there are also two: electronic and mechanical. The difference between them is not so serious: mechanical models are controlled using a switch and are designed for beginners, electronic ones have buttons and a display, and therefore are more functional. Mastering them is a little more difficult, but also quite simple.

Power

It determines the speed of preparation. Typically found in the range from 400 to 2000 W. We do not recommend taking the weakest ones - even when cooking in only one basket, it is advisable to have a device with a power of 600 W, otherwise it may take longer.

If you plan to periodically use all three baskets at once, and even of a significant volume (in total - 9 liters or more), it is worth taking a closer look at devices with a power of 1000 W or more. There is no point in chasing the maximum either - it is of no use, and not every network will support it.

Bowl volume

The total volume of all baskets that can be installed at the same time is important. Typically it varies from 4 to 12 liters. When choosing, you should proceed from the size of the family and the appetite of its members: the smallest ones in volume are suitable only for one, and if there are 3-4 people in the family, a model of about 7-8 liters will be enough. And only for large families you need to look closely at the most “voluminous” models.

Material

Plastic or metal. The plastic can be transparent, which in theory allows you to observe the cooking without opening the basket - in practice, it usually fogs up so much that this is not possible. Opaque plastic is more durable, so it is better to choose it. Metal is even stronger and will last longer, but you can get burned on it, so you should take a model with silicone handles.

Availability of options

The more there are, the better. The most important of them:

programmable timer with additional features;
automatic shutdown when there is a lack of water - this way the device will last longer;
“quick steam” function, which speeds up cooking;
automatic modes - you just need to indicate what dish you want to get, and all cooking parameters will be determined by the device automatically in accordance with the recipe stored in its memory.

There are other useful little things, like a convenient hole for adding water, with which you don’t have to remove the baskets. Almost every steamer has a hole itself, but they are not convenient everywhere. An indicator showing the water level will also be useful.

The best inexpensive steamers

The best steamers in the budget segment cost approximately 1000-3000 rubles. They have modest functionality, however, this is enough for cooking.

Top 5 best steamers

We have decided on the main parameters by which you should choose a double boiler. Based on them, we can choose the device that best suits our needs, because everyone’s needs are different.

Therefore, we will select the five best models: for those who prefer mechanical control, for those who love electronic control, for those who need a cheaper device, and vice versa - for those who want to purchase the highest quality, regardless of the price. Finally, let’s decide which steamer a large family should buy.

The best premium steamer

Bork F700

In the premium segment, the choice of high-quality steamers is extensive, but we will highlight the Bork F700. The device has 3 bowls (8 liters in total), and its power is impressive – 1600 W. It will provide quick cooking and delicious dishes.

It is convenient to operate, it has an electronic display and automatic cooking programs. The model is notable for its IQ Steam function, which adjusts the work so that when preparing several dishes at once, they are all completed at the same time.

The materials used in production are environmentally friendly, which budget models cannot boast of, and high-quality - although the problem of cracking bowls could not be completely solved and sometimes this happens, but quite rarely. The steamer is notable for its design, but has impressive dimensions and can easily take up half the table.

Price: ₽ 16890

The best electronic steamer

Tefal VC300830

Compared to devices with mechanical controls, much more possibilities arise when using an electronic one - and we consider the Tefal VC300830 to be the best steamer with it. It is more powerful (900 W), and the bowls are designed for a total of 10 liters - two of 3, and one of 4. With such a volume, the model is compact - the technology used to achieve it is even patented.

There are all the standard functions, such as automatic shutdown in the absence of water, the device is distinguished by high-quality assembly and long operation, as well as the excellent taste of the dishes prepared in it. There are a couple of disadvantages: Tefal VC300830 is not equipped with a display, which reduces the ease of setup; The bowls are not the most durable and can crack. Still, these disadvantages cannot be called critical, and for its price segment the device is of high quality, which allows us to confidently recommend it.

The best steamer with three sections

Russell Hobbs 19270-56

Russell Hobbs 19270-56 has 3 bowls of 3 liters each, which allows you to cook for a family of 4-5 people. The power of the device is 800 W, which is not very high, but in most cases it is sufficient. The control is mechanical, and the main definition for this device is “simple but reliable” - this is facilitated by the base made of steel. It’s still not advisable to drop it, but the chances of surviving a fall with this steamer are much higher than with most plastic ones.

This device is not distinguished by its richness of functions; nevertheless, it is mechanical, but it cooks quite quickly, and the dishes turn out juicy and tasty, and it works quietly. The set includes a rice bowl and slots for boiling eggs.

Switching to a healthy diet is easy, and it can, even should, be delicious - you just need to choose the best electric steamer and you can safely begin your steaming exercises.

The best mechanical steamer

Polaris PFS0213

Don't want to understand electronic control? Polaris PFS0213 will fit! It couldn’t be simpler: a pen with a timer and that’s it. Thanks to the “fast steam” function, only 40 seconds are enough for full cooking to begin

The average power is 650 W, as is the volume - there are two bowls, they are designed for 3 and 2.5 liters, that is, this steamer is suitable for a family of 2-3 people. It has an automatic shutdown function if the water is used up, however, you cannot add it during operation, which means you will have to carefully calculate the required volume. Another drawback is that the condensate bowl is too small, and it is necessary to constantly monitor so that the liquid does not overflow.

As a result, we have a simple, albeit not without disadvantages, but quite reliable device, and at the same time inexpensive - for the money it is very functional.

Best budget steamer

Home Element HE-FS1500

If you need a very cheap model, just to get a feel for what a steamer is, and without incurring any significant expenses, the Home Element HE-FS1500 is suitable. The device has two bowls with a total volume of 5 liters and mechanical control

There is an automatic shut-off function, but you won’t be able to add water if necessary. The materials used are not the most durable, and the assembly is not at the level of models from the same Tefal, and the main drawback is the low power, only 400 W. However, for the price for which the device can be purchased (about 1000 rubles, this is cheaper than other ordinary saucepans!), it is of sufficient quality and, if handled with care, will not break a month after purchase, like many models in this price category .

Lumme LU-1405

Third place in the review was taken by a two-level steamer from a brand that is not very well known among Russian consumers. However, in terms of its capabilities, workmanship and service life, this model is far superior to analogues from popular companies. The device is equipped with a water tank with a volume of 0.5 liters, and there are also two plastic bowls for preparing food - they can hold up to 2.5 liters. Each of them has handles for easy carrying. The design of the steamer is well thought out; the chambers are completely isolated from each other, so the dish will not be saturated with the aroma of other food. A double boiler allows you to provide the most delicate temperature treatment of any product - meat, fish, vegetables, poultry, and so on. The device is controlled mechanically, but it is very easy to set all the necessary parameters. There is a delayed start function for a maximum of one hour. You don’t have to monitor the cooking process – the device will do everything on its own.

The device’s protection system is also carefully thought out, which increases the safety of its operation. Water can be added to the tank if necessary, even during operation. If there is little water left, the steamer will inform the user about this with a sound signal. When water is not added for some reason, the product automatically disconnects from the network. The case here is made of plastic, but the material withstands high temperatures and other physical influences well. It does not consume very much electricity - its power is only 400 W.

Advantages:

Very convenient to use;
Excellent ergonomics of the device;
Long service life;
Reliable mechanical control;
Reasonably priced;
Bowls completely isolated from each other;
Takes up little free space.

Flaws:

Short cord.
