Tefal VitaCuisine Compact VS400331

When it comes to kitchen appliances with an emphasis on cooking healthy and wholesome food, the Tefal VS 4003 steamer is right there. She can be trusted to cook steam cutlets, vegetables, stews, desserts and a whole galaxy of other goodies with the guarantee that the lion's share of minerals and nutrients are preserved in the products.

powerful steam

Against the background of many "classmates", the model stands out with increased power (1800 W). And this, in turn, is a direct way to more intense steam production and a reduction in cooking time. The “Vitamin +” function, sewn into the device’s memory at the factory assembly stage, also helps to speed up the cooking process.

Additional armament

Along with three plastic steam baskets , Tefal VS 4003 comes with a quartet of glass jars with airtight lids (for desserts) and a tandem of double-sided non-stick baking sheets, which will come in handy for stewing meat in marinade or its own juice. But there is no separate container for cereals (in particular, rice) in the standard delivery set of the double boiler.

Electronic control

To operate a steamer, you need about 1 liter of water. It is controlled from the buttons on the case framed by the LCD display. The latter displays information about the selected mode and the time remaining until the end of cooking. Out of the box, the model also comes with a recipe book. As noted in numerous reviews, it cannot be called particularly useful. Another pebble in the garden of a double boiler throws not the most democratic price tag. However, it is fully justified by the developed level of functionality of the model and the high quality of its assembly.
