Do the juices from the item in the top container drip down all over whatever you have in the bottom container?

If the top container has sauce or liquid, yes. In that case, reverse the trays so the tray with liquid is on the bottom.

Yes, the juices do run down but since you are using steam, the flavors also intermingle deliciously!!

I heat a variety of foods at one time, and I heat each one in its own pyrex bowl because I want the juices to stay with the food they came out of. For instance, I steam my leftover steak and chicken, etc. in their own bowl - you cannot believe how much juice is still in the meat that you would never get if you microwaved it. I melt garlic butter for the artichoke at the same time, then I throw my asparagus in there as well - but no juices get on it because they are in their own container.

Yes.. they have the effect of basting the food below. You can reverse the process and do the veggies on top and the meat on the bottom, and the basting process won't happen.Oster is an excellent steamer in both the mechanical and digital time setters. Again, the window on the time set lcd screen is small so it may be smart to go with the mechanical time setter. It works well.. it does the job forever. The only problem with the Oster.. and I mean the only problem for me, is that the holes in the containers are too large and such as peas and beans can dribble through to the catch plate for excess water and juices. All of them, with the exception of the T Fall and the Rival have the big holes in the basket. Yes.. they have the effect of basting the food below.

Hello. I have the same problem but it's a basic juicer not a fancy/expensive one that juices everything.

I use Juice with mine all the time! Ive used orange juice, apple juice, various low% juice punches, and of course just regular water. i even had a bottle of Mt. Dew that had gone flat and i re carbonated it. Not sure if they will have negative affects over time, but so far ive just made to clean it wekk after use with Juice and i have han no issues!

No it doesn't. I've used it for cold drinks/hot drinks. My kids had spilled juice and everything else on it and you just run it under some warm water and it looks great as before. Most of the time I just wipe it down with a paper towel with some bamboo cleaning spray and it's good as new. Hope that helps!

Nope and theory issue I have had with it is pineapple. It seems to get stuck in the strainer and slow the discharge of juice.

Yes. You can juice with the spout up and save all your liquid in the tray or juice with the spout down directly into a glass or bowl.

No the bottom part comes offNot the top. The top doesn't get very dirty and I wipe with a sponge. It takes about a minute to clean, I purchased this to simplify my juicing experience since I was cleaning a juice extractor for 15 minutes after each use.

My juicer has not clogged up. I like the pulp so I do not try to restrict it. I believe that you can adjust the fittings to reduce pulp in the juice. In have not tried it. Overall, I really like the juicer.

It may depending on how juicy the produce is you are pureeing. I've never had a leak, however, I still place a container under just in case.If it does leak it will be minimal.

You don't want anything juicy in there, so that will be a problem. Yes it would get sucked up and then the bag would have to be cleaned wit bleach water because you're not supposed to have any juices suck through the air hole on the bag, and no juice is supposed to enter vacuum gun or it needs to be cleaned.

When picked up the lid will drip, but it is a small problem that can be wiped up it doesn't make a mess like it does with a total boil over that takes a lot to scrub off. I love it and bought everyone one for Christmas this year.

I haven't had any issues with juices spilling over. I have had issue with it smoking, however ... to the point where my smoke detectors go off. I'm fairly certain it's because of the oil I use to keep it from rusting after washing it but not sure how to avoid that. All in all, it's fine but with it being double-sided probably not the best choice for indoor cooking IMO. I wish I would have thought about that before purchasing but c'est la vie.

Mine drips some. After the espresso is made I drop the capsule into the bin and that stops most of the dripping.

I have never had them leak and I've been using them for a year now. I've put fruit in them and the juice has never leaked. I own 3 sets of these containers and love them! Now that my son is getting bigger, I wish they made them in a bigger size.

Yes this will work good. I love mine. The top dome that keeps it clean is a measuring cup. Take off squeeze orange and pour out as juice goes into bottom underneath after squeezing juice

It has a lip that seems to prevent it from dripping. Have not noticed a problem.

Well... The juice won't be in contact with the container for long... If that helps... Haven't had to shop for a juicer but maybe there are some with stainless or some other material...
