I purchased this steamer to replace another brand's steamer that I've had for 20+ yrs. I have several Cuisinart appliances and thought this would be an upgrade. Unfortunately, the very first food I chose to steam was corn on the cob. I was surprised to see how few I could fit in the steamer. (4 total and the lid would not seat tightly as the cobs were too large). Hoping for better experiences with other foods! I like the enclosed cookbook. Looks like several recipes I want to try are included.
I would recommend this to a friend!

First reaction to Cuisinart CookFresh: heavy glass and expensive. But after using several alternate top-rated plastic tower steamers, I decided to try CookFresh. Now the only one I use. Convenient 1 liter water reservoir. Fast, robust steam (30-seconds) arrives top down to cook food quickly...without filling kitchen with steam. Bright non-flimsy timer with many settings and categories. Rings when finished and shuts off a few minutes later. Has pause and reheat functions. Reheat makes refrigerated meals quickly hot without drying out or overheating common with microwaves. Now rarely use MW. Makes perfect poached, soft, or hard-boiled eggs. A keeper!

I’ve been searching for a steamer to replace my old worn out one. The Cuisinart one is a bit pricey but the fact that it’s not plastic and I do use it often helped to justify the cost. This is very well made and easy to use. It does take up more room than my old one but I’m very happy I made the decision to go with it.

I purchased the CookFresh Digital Glass Steamer on August 31, 2020, and began to use it from September, 2020 at a frequency of about once a week if not less frequently. The manual says use distilled or cold water. So I used the filtrated tap water (which was cold) most of the time, and sometimes used bottled water. However, only fewer than 7 months later, from late March of 2021, the steamer stopped working by producing a loud sound without blowing the steam into the pot. Unfortunately as a single working parent, I didn't have time to reach out to customer service but move on with the simplest steamer I had before.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I originally purchase this steamer to steam veggies but find myself wanting to steam everything in this! I love the way it looks on the counter and how precise it is with timing. I can also steam 2 large crab clusters at time which is pretty good :) I do notice a sort of cracking sound after steaming - I am thinking perhaps because of the heat? So far I have not had any mechanical issues and I like that it is really easy to clean. I would definitely recommend.
