Electric steamers

[Gemini]

OH feels we have enough gadgets, but speaking to our cat sitters last week made me feel we need a steamer. They use theirs a lot and it sounded a good idea
I just wondered if anyone here had one and if so do you use it?

[Lizzie48]

I had one Gem, never used it really, I do have a steamer above a pan if I want to use one.

[Gemini]

Lizzie, we have two above-pan steamers which we use most days, so I suppose we would use an electric one!

[Lizzie48]

Then I expect you would use it a lot, the only thing I found was, the size of it and somewhere to store it!!

[Oma]

We have a three tier one but usually only use two tiers when we do use it.
It very rarely gets used to be honest .

Gem, if you use your ordinary steamers a lot, do you think you would go to the trouble of getting out an electric steamer instead?

We've got an ordinary Tower steamer with two baskets and use it nearly every day, but it can all go in the dishwasher and is trouble-free. But sometimes we all just want something for no particular reason. I know you use your soup maker a lot, whereas I just wouldn't bother to get it out of the cupboard.
