Compact and efficient
Great purchase. I had one of these a couple of years ago and I replaced it with a cheaper model. Definitely the cheaper on did not work so well so I bought this one again. It is compact and steams quickly and consistently. I’d recommend.

Fit for purpose
This is ok for the purpose, a bit complicated putting the funnel in and keeping it in place, wouldn't buy again but is fit for purpose

Partially stackable
Unfortunately, I returned this item due to having limited kitchen storage. The description stated stackable and although the three tears are stackable within each other, they don't stack compactly over the base. The star rating is purely based on not meeting my particular needs and doesn't reflect the products performance as not used.

Hello Kqllu,
Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer 21140.
It is not recommended to use the Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer without the steam guide. The steam guide is designed to ensure even steam distribution and prevent the steam from escaping too quickly. Using the steamer without the steam guide may result in less effective cooking and potentially unsafe conditions. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and use the steam guide for optimal performance and safety.
Thank you.
Hi there,
Having checked, the basket bases on the Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer 21140 can not be removed.
Thanks for using Q&A

Hi Fran,
Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer 21140
Having checked I can see you are able to poach an egg with this. You would just need a ramekin or small dish to place inside with the egg in.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello Jane.
Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer 21140:
Where possible our manufactures have removed polycarbonate (PC) plastic from their manufacturing sites. All manufacturing sites still producing PC products that come in to contact with food are required to demonstrate that they’re in full compliance with regulatory food contact requirements. This is supported with test certificates from specialised independent laboratories who test every plastic component that comes into contact with food to ensure that any BPA trace is below the legally accepted level before products are placed on the market. A product will not be sold until we hold test reports that demonstrate full compliance.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hello Bazza,
The supplier has advised the following for the Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer 21140:
Yes, pasta can be cooked in it, however it will take very long time.
Eggs can be cooked in the food steamer.
Red meat can also be cooked, as there is nothing preventing you from doing that, but beef would probably yield poor results.
The manual advises on cooking times and recommended meat types for cooking and can be viewed in the "View document (PDF)" towards the bottom of the about this product section.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi Dek,
It is recommended this Russell Hobbs 3 Tier Plastic Food Steamer is descaled every 3 months.
