A fast and large steamer that is suitable for vegetables, fish, eggs, meat, rice and cakes. It can cook up to 140ºC (284ºF) for a maximum period of 1 hour. It is powered by a 800W motor, which is exactly what a steamer with this characteristics needs. The steamer has 3-tier bowl nest design, thus allowing you to cook different ingredients in each compartment. This Aicok product is one of the cheapest steamers currently available in the market. It’s cost-benefit is also one of the most interesting. Want an efficient product while getting a good value? Go with Aicok food steamer for great performance for a low price.
Aicok food steamer is a simple product and doesn’t have any fancy features. The only thing we must highlight is the powerful 800W motor, which is very efficient. The timer (goes up to 60 minutes) and the 3-tier stackable basket design, are also 2 other features worth mentioning. However, as you can see, it’s a very simple and standard product.
We must say we were surprised at the quality of the material. The base of the steamer is made of stainless steel, a highly-resistant type of material. The baskets are made of a medium-strength plastic resistant to high temperatures. Of course baskets made of glass is always better, but considering the price of this product, one cannot complain. Why is glass so important? Because it is highly durable and ensures food will always taste good. Plastic on the other hand, will time and use will start getting weak and you may notice it will give a certain plastic flavor to the food. If we were to estimate how long it will last until starts affecting the food, we would say about 1 year if used 3 to 4 times a week, and 2 to 3 years if only used occasionally.
Very user-friendly, ideal for beginners, there’s practically no learning curve. Just add the water, time it, and sit back while the steamer does the work. There’s truly not much to it, one of the simpler kitchen appliances you can possibly use.
At the time of this review Aicok food steamer is priced at $39.99. We believe it’s a good deal, and truly gives good value to your money. However, the price that best fits the product would be around $31.99.
