Not sure if there is or not, am open to any suggestions, the electric ones
are a plus for me because i can set it and wander away and it wont burn the
food, my biggest problem in cooking is not being able to sit still long
enough for the food to cook, DH could do the stove steamer fine.

i wasn't clear enough really.

-- we need a steamer.
and what are the benifits to the bamboo over metal or plastic.

if i get electric it needs buttons and knobs if i am to use it.

sorry for rambling i hate this new keyboard.
