Sistema Microwave Steamer for Cooking Food and Vegetables with Steam Release Vent

I had one of these that I'd been using at work for a couple of years until I left it in the break room sink overnight and some ********* either stole it or threw it away a few weeks ago. The new one I ordered just came in and I'm happy again.This thing's size and features make it extremely versatile to use at work if you're limited on personal storage space. It's large enough to make noodles, oatmeal, cereal, Huel, soup, frozen meal-prep 1c bricks, etc. without being filled to the brim. If you have tacos or a burrito and they fall apart, just dump them into this bowl and continue - there's room.The clear locking lid is a cool feature too and it has a steam vent. This helps make microwave cooking a little easier and cleaner. It also provides a little bit of extra security when you're shuttling your steaming-hot lunch from the break room back to your desk. Please note that the lid is NOT watertight. If you fill it with soup and toss it in your bag, bad things will happen.Overall, this is an awesome little microwave do-everything bowl. I just checked my order history and my last one was 3 years old before it got stolen. It was going strong and didn't have any damage or defects up to that point. This is good kit.

Gerat quality product. Absolutely perfect for heating food in the microwave, and they clean up easily, probably because they were made for a microwave so do not stain. Sizes are perfect. Reheat cooked rice like it was fresh out of the rice cooker.

I wish I knew about this product when my son was born! It would’ve cut my time making food. It’s a great steaming tool. I had to push down on the clasps on the cover sometimes to lock it in but otherwise, it’s very durable. I love that’s it’s dishwasher safe as well.

I gave honest 4 star because this lid seal is not leak proof. It did leak when properly snapped closed by accidentally tilting/sloshing soup. However it's really nice for using in the microwave. Easy to use the size is great for leaving some space at the top. Red is easily seen in fridge & cabinet, very good price for this specific type of safe to heat with steam vent snap open on the lid. Easy to use and extremely convenient. Was safe to remove from microwave when heated by handle. But always use precautions with stand by hot pad in front of microwave just in case. Enjoy ! Great for students & busy in the go

This mug is now my favorite cooking utensil in my vast array of microwave utensils. I have now been using this mug for just about every thing I heat and reheat in the microwave oven. Leftover vegetables, stews, soft boiled and scrambled eggs and just boiling water. This cup is also great for making instant oatmeal, hot chocolate and instant anything. I found that it's better to take your cup of soup out of the styrofoam cup, put it in this cup, fill with water and microwave for 3 to 4 minutes and let it stand. I also use it for cold canned and jar fruit, cold cereals and snacks. It's just a damn good mug. I have used it every day and there is no sign of wear and tear. I hand wash all my dishes so I can't verify it being dishwasher safe. I keep reading reviews stating the mug was purchased for leak proof heating and as a travel convenient mug. I have been over the description a few times and have never seen the claim that it is leak proof. As far as travel to the office or whatever, purchase one specifically for the office if there is a microwave available. As far as other travel? Even the so called made to be leak proof mugs leak in my experience. Sisters has a website you should check out. No where on that site does it claim any of their microwave products are leak proof or designed for travel purposes. I think the fact that there is a vent to allow steam to escape would indicate this mug isn't leak proof. By the way, I just used the mug to make a Vinegarette by shaking the mug and it did leak at the vent but that was my mistake. Excellent Excellent!I've been looking for a microwave mug for awhile locally for some time. I'm a widower who can cook well but on occasions a nice bowl of soup, the large 18 oz. size, hits the spot and is a pretty good meal to boot. I have been using a larger bowl with a plastic wrap to cover and heating it in a couple of intervals to heat through. Problems always arose when removing the wrap as the stuff gets like molten lava and transporting to the table or wherever the contents spilled. Then came along this Amazon suggested item. For the pride and from previous experience with this manufacturer I decided to take a chance and ordered the mug. Surprise! It was delivered the following day instead of the Prime two day delivery time. Removing the plastic and labels I washed and dried the item and set it out to dry. That night I decided to give it a try with a can of Chunky New England Clam Chowder. The mug took the entire can with a little space left over. Put the lid on, snapped the lid tight using the three locks and opened the steam vent. Set the microwave on high for three minutes on the turntable. At the end of those minutes I expected to have to remove the lid and as usual stir the soup and to heat another couple of minutes. I didn't have to. I don't know if it's the design or what but the soup was heated through. Place the top back on and moved to the table along with a green salad and crackers. I consumed the salad first then removed the lid to find the soup still steaming. Great!I don't believe the mug is designed for travel in an auto or other moving vehicles. While washing the mug I filled it with soapy water with the locked lid on and did notice some leakage. I plan to order another mug soon and to experiment with other foods to get the best use of the mug.I paid full retail for the mug and received no financial benefits.

I use this bowl all the time now, and I *just* got it a few weeks ago. I broke my ankle and have been bedbound and transitioned to crutches recently, this bowl is a lifesaver. Its quite large and VERY well made. I like to use it for soups and ramen (the brick ones). The snap on and vented top is NICE, the vent part does not get dirty from the inside contents due to how it is made and the four snap on hinges are durable, you'll see when you get it, it just feels so ... quality! It has zero issues in the microwave, and I bought the red one based on a reviewer mentioning if you really want to cook stuff that is red and stains, this would help. Honestly I havent used red stuff in my bowl because I value it WAY too much, but it does seem very unlikely to stain! I'm on here to get myself another in a different shape and size just to have, thats how much I love this thing.
