## Overview

Made from BPA and phthalate-free plastic in New Zealand, it’s dishwasher (top rack), microwave, fridge, and freezer safe—designed for fast, healthy meals with minimal cleanup.

## Description

The Sistema Microwave Steamer features a removable steamer basket to easily lift out food once cooked. The new and improved steam release vent ensures your microwave stays free from food splatters, while the convenient easy-lift tabs make it simple to transport from microwave to bench. This product is stackable and safe to use in the dishwasher (on the top rack), the microwave (without the lid), or in the fridge and freezer.

Review: Game changer for me - This is a great product. Being able to steam things in the microwave has been a game changer for me. I steam potatoes all the time. The capacity is good—I have steamed four Yukon Gold potatoes at once, and it can probably hold almost twice that amount. It’s quicker and easier than steaming food in a pot on the stove and is easier to clean. It works great except it can be a little tricky to snap it shut. The trick is to push down on the red flap as you snap it closed. It feels reasonably well made (it is plastic) and I hope it is durable. I’m concerned about the locking flaps breaking off eventually but I’ve been using it for a few weeks now with no problems. Even so, I think it would work fine without the locking flaps. I’m very pleased with my purchase.
Review: This is genius! - These Sistema Microwave Food Storage Containers are great! We eat out a lot and the styrofoam to go boxes were always mounting up in our trash. So far I have ordered 3 sets because we don't always eat leftovers immediately so this works for us. They travel well and look nice when taking them out in restaurants, they store nicely in the refrigerator, and heat food up great in the microwave and clean up great in the dishwasher! Just remember to snap the steam release vent when traveling and open the steam release vent when microwaving. These containers are made in New Zealand where they are very conscience about the environment and food safety so I feel a bit safer using this microwave product after reviewing other similar containers. Price was great, too! Highly recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Rice for 1–2 People | Easy, Reliable, and Simple to Clean
*by J***I on January 29, 2026*

I sold my Instant Pot because the only thing I ever used it for was rice, and it never made rice the way I wanted. After saving this Sistema Microwave Rice Cooker for a while, I finally bought it, and I’m so glad I did. This inexpensive little cooker makes better rice than my Instant Pot ever did. I made basmati rice and it turned out perfectly cooked, fluffy, and not mushy. Based on my experience, this cooker is ideal for one to two people. Overfilling it is likely what causes the spillover issues mentioned in some reviews. Here’s the method that worked great for me and I think will give you a good starting point: I rinsed 1/2 cup of basmati rice, added it to the cooker with 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon of water, a dash of salt, and a small amount of olive oil. I placed the lid on, making sure the steam vents were not aligned, microwaved for 7 minutes in a 900-watt microwave, let it rest for 5 minutes, then microwaved for another 3 minutes and let it sit again for 5 minutes. The result was perfect rice. Cleaning was a breeze. The product says it’s dishwasher safe on the top rack, but I hand washed it and it cleaned up very easily. The smaller container that comes with this set is also very useful. I stored my leftover rice in it in the fridge and reheated it later with great results. It seals well and works perfectly for storage, making it a nice bonus alongside the rice cooker, which is definitely the star of the set. Overall, this has been one of my best small kitchen purchases and I’m very happy with it.
