This is a game changer for me. This means I never run out of food. I buy frozen broccolli, beans, and other veggies/veggie mixes from the supermarket, and simply steam them in the microwave with this. Food ready in 2-3 minutes!
1 complain though: some of the lid locks are stubborn. Could be better engineered. Nevertheless, serves my purpose.

Works for steaming rice
I got this to cook rice, because our Asian-style rice cooker stopped working ㅠㅠ Instead of spending tons of money on a new cooker or burning rice on the stovetop, I decided to try microwaving it. Sistema has a rice steamer too, but I figured the steaming basket in this one would come in handy some day. The only differences I can see are the shape of the container and amount of holes for steaming, which doesn't make much of a difference overall. How to cook rice in this steamer: 1. Pour in desired amount of rice 2. Rinse and drain 2-3 times 3. Pour in water according to instructions on the rice bag, or use tip of index finger to measure from the top of leveled rice until water reaches halfway to the first knuckle (crease)--most will tell you to measure to the knuckle, but my mom taught me otherwise for jasmine rice 4. Optional to soak 30 min for fluffier rice 5. Microwave for 5 min on high (100%) or until you see bubbling from the steam, switch to 50% power until you see bubbling, then 30% until total cooking time totals 10-12 min. You'll know it's done steaming when you tilt the container and the rice doesn't slide. 6. Leave to rest 5 min, then fluff with fork before serving. If rice is still a bit undercooked, add 1/4 cup water and microwave for another 2 min on high, repeat if necessary. This worked well for me, but can get a bit messy from the bubbling steam (makes something like rice paper on top of the container hah). I have a lot of Sistema containers and particularly like the ones with the steamer hole. Overall, very satisfied with the purchase.
