Joseph Joseph 45030 Bloom Folding Steamer Basket, Green

This is an excellent kitchen utensil. Absolutely perfect for steaming veg. Extremely durable and easy to Clean

Second time we’ve bought this to steam veggies for our children as we accidentally melted the previous one trying to steam it without water 🤦 Pros - light, - easy to clean, - quick to dry Cons - melts if you forget to put water underneath as you are meant to do! Conclusion: Fab product from J&J - hope not to have to buy another one but we probably will if we manage to break it again!

It does exactly as required fits up to 18" saucepan

Excellent product, easy to use and fits most saucepans

I have now had four of these Joseph Joseph steamers over a period of about 3 - 4 years so I hope I might be able to give you a little information that will help you to decide if they are a product you wish to purchase. Are the JJ silicone/polypropylene steamers built to last? Absolutely not. I have had one of the 'Lotus' model steamers and three 'Bloom' steamers. After around a year of use one of three faults inevitably occurs and I have to purchase a new steamer. What faults have I experienced with my steamers? Melting of the silicone feet, peeling, discoloration and deterioration of the polypropylene used in the main body of the steamer and eventually, disintegration or cracking and breaking of the plastic/polymer which results in the whole steamer falling apart. If a pan boils dry, even if only for 20 seconds or so, the feet will almost certainly melt. However, when the silicone ages a little, I have also had instances where the feet have melted when in water. It is very, very difficult to find out what the main body of the steamer is made from (Amazon suggests polypropylene) but this also becomes brittle and dry over time which eventually results in cracking or breaking. With my steamers, this usually happens after a year or so. My latest steamer fell apart after a year with the 'petals' becoming detached as they had become brittle and dry. The petals do discolour and look old within a few months of use. There also appears to be a transparent lacquer of some sort on top of the polypropylene that begins to peel after around 6 months. All of this is with daily, once-a-day use and washing by hand. So, given that these steamers melt, break and disintegrate, why have I bought four of them? I ask myself the same question each time I am tempted to buy another. I am also deeply ashamed of myself knowing the environmental implications of doing so. There is one main reason why I can't seem to resist these steamers and that is the ease of lifting the steamer out of a pan without burning my fingers. Before these, I had always used metal steamers and I still have several. Without fail, I will manage to burn my fingers when lifting the steamer out of the pan, as you might be familiar with yourself. Yes, I have tried using a fork/oven glove/tea towel. Sadly, this is the one quality the JJ steamers have that keeps reeling me back in. Do JJ deserve the repeat business on a product that is so 'disposable,' not the best quality and terrible for the environment? No. Will I keep buying them? Please, please can somebody design a better quality, environmentally sound, fit-for-purpose alternative that doesn't burn fingers?

Love Joseph Joseph products. This was a replacement steamer as my original JJ melted in the saucepan - my fault as I let the water dry out - will be more careful with this one. I love the size and look of this and steams my veg to perfection. It's good and strong and folds in on itself therefore saving on storage.

Very disappointing. Melted on first use despite following instructions. You would expect the plastic to be made to withstand the temperature but clearly not!

Great steamer. Fits loads of different size saucepans. Easy to clean and can go in the dishwasher.

I recently purchased the Joseph Joseph Bloom Steamer Basket from Amazon, and it has quickly become an essential tool in my kitchen. This cleverly designed steamer basket has transformed the way I prepare meals, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Like most of you I grew up in a home that had a metal steamer. This is such an upgrade - bordering on exponential if I am being totally honest. Easier to clean, more durable and best part, you don't lose the little feet like you would with the old school metal steamer. Worth the $$

fonctionne parfaitement facile à ranger et à nettoyer
