SistemaMicrowave Collection Breakfast Bowl, 28.7oz./850ml, Red

My third try at finding a microwaveable bowl for my oatmeal, and this one works great. The other two were glass--needed oven mitts to take out the bowl--and their rubber seals fell out from under the lids over time. The Sistema is plastic and is cool to the touch right out of the microwave. And the seal is staying put (not sure whether that is because this time I am not dishwashing it, unlike the others, or because it is better made.)I recall having read a few reviews about oatmeal boiling over with this product. It does for me, too, if I microwave my oatmeal for three minutes on high. So I heat for two minutes...wait a couple of minutes...and microwave for another minute...and no muss, no fuss. To me, complaining about its boiling over makes no sense, in that if you heat water in a pot for too long over a burner on your stove it will boil over too. Why would you complain about the pot or return it? Things boil over if there is enough liquid, enough heat, and enough time. Don't see that as the product's fault; get upset at physics, if anything :-)By the way, as an aside about oatmeal, if you aren't eating Bob's Red Mill Thick Rolled Oats, you truly are missing out. This is not a planted endorsement, this is just a fan talking!

I love oatmeal for breakfast and have tried different bowls in the microwave oven but this is far and away the best . I love the steam vent. It cleans up very easily and there's no need for extra bowls as you can eat right out of it. It's cool to the touch. Incidentally I read a tip on Bob's Red Mill that all you need to do to avoid the oatmeal from "exploding"us to put a bit of fat on top which will hold down the bubbles. I spray the top of your oatmeal with spray on coconut oil before putting the oatmeal in the microwave and never have a messAlso use it to make baked Alaska. Delicious!

This is the last microwave gadget that you will ever buy...Guaranteed! I don't know on what the New Zealanders are doing did but they made an Optimum microwave cooker when they made this cooker by Sistema! Thesemicrowave cookware is Made in New Zeland and this is a premium brand of cooker. I have been using this since I bought it non stop yet it ne er melted in the microwave after so many uses from soups to stews even everythingmade with tomatoes yet it haven't stained nor warped this cookware. I'm so glad that I bought this for it's always a made dash to get out and going places so there's really no time to seat down slouch and eat your food for thishousehold is a busy bunch and always on the rub hence why a microwave is a must in our family and it's the most used appliance in our house and we bought a couple of these Sistema microwave cookers for each memberof our family complete with their own names on it and they're solely responsible of taking care of their cookware. So far everyone is happy and eats their meals at their leisure using these containers. As the photos I'veincluded, you can visibly see my hand size as a comparison to the food container and how big it is so you'll get an idea. A very highly recommended item if you like non warping cookware made for your microwave.

My only quibble is that the lip of the ball is up not flush with the rest of the bowl and that’s because there’s a lid that you can pop over it and then snap down onto the bowl. I sometimes like to drink my super at least the last few bites of it and I can’t do that with this bowl because it dribbles around where that lip is. That’s a small complaint but I really like everything else about it and when I microwave some soup The ball stays cool on the outside sometimes you can feel a little warmth but doesn’t burn your hands if you have to carry it somewhere. I don’t know but the lid is exactly airtight because one time I tipped the ball a little bit for whatever reason and some soup dripped out of it and that was with the lid on. Maybe I didn’t have the lid on tight Knouff I don’t know but that’s just something to watch for. Otherwise I use this almost every day I’d like to take soup with me to the office and I put it in The fridge and then microwave it for lunch.

Convenient, efficient, high quality.

I got so frustrated with this thing, just like many others have. And just like many others, I have never used the power setting on my microwave. But, this makes all the difference in the world with this handy device! I am glad I went back to read some reviews before putting this permanently away. I love steel cut oats and yes you can make them in here. I put my steel cut oats and hot water (because I have access to it) in, snap on the lid, make sure the vent is opened...and set the power button to 60% for one minute. And then when it's done, I let it sit for a few minutes while I'm doing something else important, like drinking coffee. If you don't use hot water, you'll probably need to add additional time. BUT...DO NOT PUT IT IN FOR MORE THAN A MINUTE AT A TIME! I did, and it made a huge mess like before. I also think that letting it sit for a few minutes is important as well. So, before throwing it away and giving up, try decreasing the power. I love how my steel cut oats turn out now. And when I'm done, it's a breeze to clean! And most importantly, no mess to clean in the microwave!

This bowl is very useful for cooking an egg. I smear a little butter inside, and add the egg. The shape of the bowl makes the egg the perfect size for an english muffin. This bowl is also pretty good with oatmeal, however you have to keep a close eye on it. You'd think the special lid with just a small vent in the middle would stop oatmeal from escaping and getting all over the microwave, but you would be wrong! The oatmeal can still boil up and get to the vent, and then the oatmeal can/will spit all over the inside of your microwave. So you still have to watch your oatmeal and pause it when the oatmeal gets close to the vent.The bowl and lid are super easy to clean. Nothing sticks to it. You can throw it in the dishwasher, or you can hand wash it, either way it's super easy to clean.

Does the job, very easy to clean - and the handle makes it easy to remove from the microwave without using gloves.

Ottimo articolo, ne avevo già acquistato uno un pò più piccolo e questo è di una misura più grande. Pratico con la possibilità di far uscire il vapore. Si pulisce in un attimo e la tenuta è garantita dalla chiusura ad alette. Super consigliato !!!

Awesome product for microwave

Good looks, elegant design but there is a gap in lif and casserole where this was not suitable for semi liquid , liquid carrying. You can keep static on table or kitchen but try to carry some gravy foods to office, becareful about leakages and spillage on your laptop, gadgets etc. Even a 2 USD china microwave heateable containers perfect leakproof where Sistema failed I did'nt understood.

使い勝手がいいです
