Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just received the vitalis steamer. A few notes for potential buyers:
- at a little over $160+, this price at Amazon is the lowest you will find for the large size (there is a smaller version that is suitable for 2 people)
- the unit is hefty and appears to be made of quality steel
- the unit is NOT made in Germany as the description says; instead it is made in China which is disappointing especially in light of the price they are charging
- the steel is dull looking (I have noticed that Rosle and WMF items made in China appear like this; whereas Fissler which is still made in Germany is beyond compare)
- the inside is not as big as expected for 4 people, maybe 2 or 3 if you want to fit food in there comfortably
- there are 2 trays provided - a large one and a small one. The steamer can hold 2 of the small trays and 1 of the large trays, or 2 large trays. It's no surprise that WMF sells the small and large trays individually for over $30+ each! I can tell you that based on the quality and price of the trays, they are not worth buying
- the great thing about this is that the steamer is rectangular; not round as most steamers are. You have more room to play with the types of food you can steam
- there is also an instructional booklet included which gives you tips on "broths" you can make to steam food with
Overall, this is a good product, if a tad over-priced.
