Great steamer
Bought this to replace my previous steamer, exactly same, a like for like replacement. I did have the previous one for well over 10 years so happy to buy same one. Great for steamer potatoes and veg at the same time, saves time and reduces energy usage from using the hob. Much better at not over cooking veg too.

Russell Hobbs electric Steamer
Bought to replace a broken device. Works great, heats up fast. Cooks good faster than my old one. Only down side is the lid doesn't sit tight, but doesn't seem to affect performance.

Could be better
Think it could be designed better with the containers being same size so you can use one and the lid will fit tighter

Excellent item.
It is a good item. We use the same item but bought a new one as we put in a new kitchen and updated with all new items. This one is also part of the new kitchen. I always buy almost everything from Argos, as it is always my first shop to buy from.

The baskets measure 26cm x 25.5cm x 25cm at widest part.
Thanks for using Q and 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.
