SilverStone 51388 Microwave BPA Free Microwave Pressure Cooker - 3.4 Quart, Red

I must say that after reading the customer reviews, this cookware did not disappoint. It is thick & solid, easy to clean and keeps moisture in. However, food can still get a microwave burn, especially food close to the outside edge. I've only steam cooked so far but I suspect a microwave burn can happen when stewing, as well. I have a 900w microwave. I've cooked meat, poultry and vegetables (separately) in it and I love using it. On a side note, that has nothing to do with function, I love the colour. Does it work better than a casserole dish? There are no boil overs so you don't have to watch it or experiment to find that point in cooking - so yes it is better than a casserole dish. It is worth buying, if only for that reason alone. I suspect food will not stick when stewing. It doesn't when steaming, everything just wipes right off. I would definitly recommend this cooker and it is well worth the money. I've had no problems with putting the lid on or taking it off (except human error when not lined up correctly, lol). I live in Canada and this seller ships to Canada. This item was cheaper than a smaller version (the 2.4 qt), from a different seller, on amazon.ca (the Canadian equivalent), including the shipping and the exchange rate on the dollar. The cooker arrived well packaged for its trip and on time as promised. I highly recommend this seller - tops in my book. Update, Jan 24, 2016: I've cooked pasta in it now and this is the best and easiest way to cook pasta. I cook it on PL 8 (cooking time depends on volume). I put it in the microwave and walk away. I come back when I feel like it. No boil overs, no stirring, no temperature adjustments. Put it in and walk away. The time isn't all too relative since the pasta (or anything else) will continue to cook till you open the MwPrCkr and remove the contents. It takes a long time to cool off so things stay hot for a long time. Over an hour in my experience. So I can cook something an hour before I want to eat and just leave it in the microwave till I'm ready to eat and its piping hot and ready. No moisture build-up or water dripping on the inside of the microwave to clean up either. I love it. It's still easy to clean. Everything just rinses off under the tap without wiping - except the dried on pasta water when left for a day but most of it just flakes off anyway. How much easier can life get?

It's heavy duty. The lid fits tight. It's so easy to clean. I can cook chicken breast, roasts,etc and it comes out well done, juicy & tender. It does a fabulous job on my vegetables from the garden, esp does a great job cooking beets, sweet & tender in 10-15 minutes. I would definitely buy another one

My Problem is the gaskets in it fall out. And you can't get new one's anywhere. We got lucky and found another cooker in a thrift store. And took the gaskets out of it. They gave you extras when you you buy it. But not the one's that fall out.

Loved it. Purchased 4 and gave them away as wedding gifts. We lost a 5 cent little o ring holding the lid strainer in place. I would buy it for $15. It no longer holds pressure. Silverstone does not sell parts for this item. No response from their support link. It is now a $100 piece of junk. And the gifts I gave will become junk in short time also. These parts get lost. The lid seals wear out. Buyer beware.

First of all don’t get me wrong I love my Insta pot one stop shopping for meals but the Silver stone microwave pressure cooker just blows me away you start cooking right away it uses less time and the meals, great once again I’m not getting rid of my Insta potBut I love this microwave pressure cooker

Work well. Only drawback is lid is hard to install and remove. This is an issue for the wife. Hopefully the silicone seal will start to relax after usage.

Provides faster cooking and is simple to use. I live at 6600 ft elevation where water boils at 200 F, This provides a nominal 4 psi or 15 degree temperature boost (13 degrees at sea level) I can now cook brown rice and other things in times somewhat shorter than nominal. Simply nuke at high until pressure builds and continue at medium/low til done

This is possibly the best thing since sliced bread. It does not cook any faster than the instruction on the bag but it is MICROWAVEABLE.....and I do not have to fix an inordinate amount. I cooked 1/3 of a bag of dried peas fro pea soup and it was just enough......no left overs to throw away....I'm in love....

The price came down so I ordered another one. I see it has gone back up. This is the second one I've ordered. I ordered the first one from Amazon.com which was cheaper - including the exchange on the dollar and the shipping. This second one, from a Canadian Supplier, came with the inner tray that has dividers in it. From the pictures can you tell which one is new and which one is a year and a half old? I don't know what I can say about the Seller because the items were packaged and shipped by Amazon but my items were well packaged and received on time. This item was one of many pieces in an order and there is no link in my Order Section to for this item to a 'write a review' page so the 'Verified Purchaser' notation may not show up.

Fantastic product and makes a great gift ! I am single and prepare meals raw and freeze them. When i get home, in the pot they go and microwave for less than 10 minutes its ready and delicious.

The Microwave Steamer is a fantastic product. It allows you to cook frozen vegetables very quickly, or something as simple as Rice (in 11 minutes). Its one pot cooking so there is no mess. I've owned one in the past and it was flimsy and cheap and fell broke fairly easily. The SilverStone is of very high quality. Dishwasher safe and very easy to use. It also has many safety features. It automatically vents steam if the pressure becomes too high and has 3 different release valves. All in all this is an amazing piece to add to any kitchen, it will blow you away from a convenience standpoint and the SilverStone Brand is the best I've ever used. Comes with a guide, cookbook and Warranty as well. If your in the market for a Microwave pressure cooker this is the best one you can buy!

perfect

Very happy with product. Works great!
