72 PCS COMMERCIAL ALLUMINIUM IDLI STEAMERThe product is nice makes good size Idlis. However, if you plan to order this product please bear in mind the following points,
The steamer has a loose door which opens by sliding the door through a slot along the height of the steamer. Which means the door opens upwards and downwards by pulling it beyond the height of the steamer.
Major precaution has to be taken while opening and shutting the door after the steam builds up. While opening the door your body naturally moves closer to the steamer to accommodate the action of opening the door upwards, at the same time while you open the door there is a strong whoof of heavy steam coming towards as you lift the door you which is fairly dangerous.and inconvenient. Especially those wearing glasses can have a blockage of vision from outward gush of steam. This makes it challenging to operate the steamer comfortably without accidents.
I am 5ft 7 inches tall and find it a challenge. to be careful and comfortable at the same time. And I am a very hardy cook who has handled numerous commercial cooking equipments yet find it a fair challenge to operate this safely. I operate the door by standing sideways to open it which is fairly inconvenient.
The steamer is excellent in its output of the final product of idlis. but would have worked better if it had a door on hinges to open it like a regular door.

If your stove top is at a lower height of 30 inches and the steamer is 21 inches in height which brings the finished height to 51 inches. and you now have to lift the door 21 inches above the 51 inches to open it and close it. This will pose a challenge for a short person to operate comfortably.

I choose to stick with this only out of lack of better choice for quantity cooking. Will certainly look out for more comfortable options.
