West Bend 86604 Programmable Steamer
 
It's leaking!
- Pros: It's steaming quickly and it's a healthful way to cook!
- Cons: I used this product immediately to test if it is in a good condition, everything is fine at first, but after the using, it began to leak, and my kitchen got swampy!
Then I tried the second time and third time, every time after usage, it began to leak...I asked for a replacement finally!
By the way, its plastic baskets seem to be fragile!

Steamed
- Pros: Love the steamer. Steams vegetables with ease. A great addition to the kitchen if you want to eat healthier. Can hold an enormous amount of vegetables. Takes the worry out of over cooking vegetables.
- Cons: None at this time.
- Other Thoughts: Great price...caught it on Shell Shocker! Worth the email subscription.

Applica HS1150 B&D Steamer w/ LCD Screen Rice Cooker/Steamer
Would Not Buy Again
- Pros: All plastic parts are easy to clean; Rice and other foods do not stick to the plastic dishes; Seems to steam vegetables decently (but not rice)
- Cons: Instructions are very poor and uninformative; Cooker CONSTANTLY needs more water; Cooking takes 3x longer than our much older rice cooker. This device took significantly longer to cook rice; Rice was cooked unevenly; LCD screen is not self-explanatory and has little-to-no supplement from the instructions
- Other Thoughts: Our rice cooker is ancient, and made of metal. We thought it would be nice to have a rice cooker that the rice didn't stick to after cooking and cooling. And while the rice didn't stick to this cooker, I would have probably spent less time scraping rice out of our metal cooker than waiting 3x longer for the rice to cook (and unevenly, at that) It did seem to steam vegetables pretty decently, but I was generally unimpressed with its operation. Maybe we're using it incorrectly? It's hard to say since the instructions are very unhelpful.
Bottom Line: For the price, we gave it a shot. I would NOT recommend this cooker to anyone.

- Cons: None so far, its been working flawlessly.

Applica HS1150 B&D Steamer w/ LCD Screen Rice Cooker/Steamer
- Pros: I paid twenty something for this with shipping.
- Cons: Refill light keeps coming on and then it beeps until it shuts off, even with the correct amount of water in it. SOLUTION: unplug unit, remove all trays and then remove the stopper in the base on the right side of the basin and GENTLY wiggle the plastic sensor in the hole with a toothpick. reassemble, plug in, should work now.

Oster 5711 Mechanical Food Steamer
PBA-Full and Leaks after one Week
- Pros: No pros here folks.
- Cons: All the clear plastic is #7 PC. Poly Carbonate. One of the primary components of polycarbonate plastic is Bisphenol A (BPA). Known to be an endocrine disruptor, BPA can affect human health by mimicking the effects of naturally occurring hormones.
I used another bowl other than the clear BPA-FULL plastic one and this dern steamer started leaking around the fill thing after only three uses. I just put the whole mess in my trash can. I wish I could post a picture of it in my trash. I used to think Oster made decent products. Never again. Unsafe. Unhealthy. And breaks after one week!!
- Other Thoughts: I bought this from NewEgg - $35 bucks down the drain. Buy a stainless steel steamer. Don't buy anything for food that is clear plastic and has a #7 plastic stamp.
