Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It takes a while for me to remove it since i have arthritis in my hand but handles are removable with some effort. It's sturdy and has handles for emptying out.

This is a well-made and versatile tool for straining beans you've soaked, steaming, or even frying. Perfect for use in 6 quart instant pot. Using as a steamer basket in a 4 quart ss pot.

Quality


It is very well built, resistant and easy to wash.


It is easy to clean & has good stability.

Cheaper than buying a dedicated steamer system and takes up much less cupboard space (it nests nicely inside my colander).

Packaging/appearance


I'll keep it rather than packing it up to return but slightly annoyed.


Haven't actual used it yet but unpacked, washed, examined it, and tried it in my instapot (i will be using in many other ways t...  Read More

Competitiveness


I included an image of the default hayward basket that i replaced as a visual reference for comparison.
