can it be a steamer?

I reread the owner's manual and it doesn't mention of it being a steamer, only a rice cooker. The manual contains recipes on mixed rice, rice porridge with herbs, sweet rice with mountain vegetables, and mixed brown rice.

Not to my knowledge, and I don't think so. It is a pressure cooker. It is a rice cooker and for making delicious porridge/oatmeal. Once it is started, it cannot be openened.

I am not really sure because I found the steamer to be too heavy to hold up and use. Maybe using less water might have helped but I gave it away. Don't know what happened to it after that.

Not at all. This is a GREAT steamer, I really like it. The oval size makes it more useful than the regular round ones.

I have no idea! I returned my steamer with in a week of receiving it because it wasn't heavy duty enough for what I needed

I have not done that, but I don't see why not. It is very nice and highly recommend for steaming fish!

It could be done. You probably would need a 2nd person to lift and hold the steamer up because the hose most likely would not be long enough to reach across a king size bed. I had to have a second hand to lift steamer so that I could steam the tops of my draperies. I am very happy with the steamer.

In the directions, it says you can use it as a vertical steamer if you pull down on the item being steamed. I have not tried it myself but this is a great iron and steams well on a flat surface.

Yes, you could try, but the larger screens are a hand full. I use a handheld steamer with excellent results. If ironing, I suggest a lot of caution, as scorching will affect the color.

1000% yes! It's so well worth the money. It makes it so easy. The clothes don't move back & forth, everyone steamer should have one.

This does have a good steaming ability. I think if not filled too full, it should work nicely.

Yes, it works as a regular steamer, but it may take more time, because it is handheld.

Probably, but it's a crappy product. It leaks steam out of the handle. I have to use a towel when I use it so I wouldn't get burned

Yes you can do as described but it isn't really steaming but rather boiling the veggies. The legs on this unit are nubs and not long enough to lift veggies put of water. A steam basket would be more appropriate. There is one made of stainless with 1" legs built to open (blossom like a flower) to fit the vessel being used to cook with. BTW it doesn't take a few inches to steam veggies for most families. The less water used the faster the water will create steam.

No, the converter is only use for short time, and for up to 1800 watts. The steamer may be less than 1800 watts, but is not a short time load..A coffee maker for example is a good example of short time usage.

Absolutely. That is actually the intended use. The steamer insert is for vegetables or fish you might want to steam while cooking rice or another grain below.

With a *proper* transformer (converter), that should be no problem. Check all the specs and make sure the transformer is capable to handle heavy duty appliances like this steamer. In doubt? Contact Jiffy.

I am sure that you can. I am not sure what you want to use it for but keep in mind that this does put out a significant amount of steam which may be invisible and will cook your skin on contact. Depending on the amount of water you put in it the time to get to the steam part will vary. I usually fill mine all the way up and it doesn't take too long to get going though. It just isn't as quick as say a clothes steamer. I have had zero problems with mine and it seems to be a good quality item. KEN
