Morphy Richards Intellisteam 48780

Morphy Richard Intellisteam. Comfortable cooking but lots of washing after! It really puts me off! Dishwasher is not recommended for this model because it cracks (I read other reviews), hand-washing takes lots of time. Dripping tray is very shallow. Every time I steam (anything) juices from food overflow the level and get into the base unit (in all departments, even if steaming in a foil). I hope it will not cause damage to heating elements in the long run. Also, you need to know how many portions you are cooking. Quite complicated without scales, e.g. 75g of rice requires 122g water (from Intellisteam book). It will take some time to figure out for how much cooking times should be adjusted for my standard cooking quantities.

This Morphy Richards Intellisteam 48780 cannot handle more than 2 portions of pasta. Rice for more than 3 is also a problem and the tiers cannot be increased as they don't stack. Overpriced due to it's lack of versatility and inability to cater for families.

I have just returned my Morphy Richards Intellisteam! I bought it at the Ideal Home Exhibition where it was being demonstrated and looked good. However, I found that it took twice as long to steam the vegetables than my previous steamer, 45 minutes just for broccoli or cauliflower!

After having Tefals for years we changed to a Morphy Richards Intellisteam 48780 because the Tefal we would have bought was not in stock, then we saw this one, liked the look of it and bought it. It is slightly more awkward to empty when finished, but I feel this is just a case of getting used to it being different. A recommended buy unless you are on a budget.
