To buy yet another kitchen

gadget? So far I have a slow cooker, airfryer, George Foreman grill,electric tin opener and toastie maker (all rarely used) alongside the everyday kettle and toaster (both never off) cluttering up my work surfaces.And now I have my eye on an electric steamer. I have started the Slimming World diet, so am trying to eat loads of different veg at every meal.....well dinner-call me a rebel but I'm not following the diet quite THAT meticulously, plus I'd never be off the flipping bog, but I digress. So I am now thinking of buying an electric steamer to cook this array of veg I must eat everyday. Are they any good? Useful? Quick cooking? Easy to clean etc? Any recommendations on which one to buy, bearing in mind I don't have much space due to the aforementioned paraphernalia. I just don't want to buy yet another space hogging, dust gathering article without consideration first. So what do ya think? To buy or not to buy?

Yes you are buy a pan steamer I use mine all the time goes on the top of the hob. If you have a pan set they may do one that matchs the set you already have. Will take up far less space.

I second the pan steamer. Like that you can still use the pan for other things.

I actually have a stove top one (forgot all about it Blush ) but have just checked and there's only one holey layer to it (I'm sure there were two, but can't find the other one). I think I stopped using it because it took a lot lot longer to steam the veg at the top than to boil the spuds at the bottom.
