Josephina G. Fantastic appliance! I use it every day. It is so much better than I expected. You can cook absolutely anything in it. Easy to use, super light and easy to transport. Cooks everything perfectly and quickly. Also really easy to clea. Love it!!

Jean M. In brief, I love this device – but not necessarily for the reason it is primarily advertised. Yes, it would indeed be possible to pack a healthy lunch for the office – from udon noodle soup with steamed vegetables, to Cuban Black Bean Chili with fresh rice to any curry imaginable and ‘cook it’ at work. But that would miss so many other reasons why this device is an invaluable addition to any kitchen, dorm room, RV or hotel room! I purchased mine during the early days of our four-month lock down to due Covid-19. Personally, I work from home during most days but often have many evening meetings, so getting/ leaving dinner for my family is always been a challenge. This baby can work wonderfully alongside many traditional kitchen appliances from a soup on the stove to a meal in a slow cooker or electric pressure cooker. I can set rice, potatoes, and/or other vegetable in this, ready to go and ask my husband or kids to safely press a button to finish off the meal for the evening. It is also WONDERFUL to break up the digital meeting fatigue. You can prep your meal and either leave it in the fridge or even stealthily by your computer. It is quiet enough that you can be cooking or warming your meal just off-camera and no one will see! Likewise, it is the one device children (ages 15 and 12) are allowed to use when I am in a meeting. They can warm up leftovers, ready meals and fresh boa and not send me into a frenzy. This has just about completely replaced our microwave during lock down and I would be happy to have that gone for good. In terms of kids, this has become a great tool to give them the confidence to explore more in preparing and cooking their own meals. We have a gas flame stove top, so to be able to make something on a scale and in a manner that is far less intimidating for novice cook has really increased their confidence. And to say that clean up is a breeze is an understatement! So, while I have been using this at home due to the current circumstances, I have lived enough other chapters in life to see how useful this could be a many other circumstances. Aside from home or office, this would be a great companion for the frequent business traveller in hotel room who hates crummy over-priced room service or when none is available. This would be also work wonderfully in any RV or on road trip. Don’t be fooled by its petite size, this can easily hold two generous portions of any meal and sides. And of course, this should be staple in any dorm room – again replacing a microwave with size and easier clean up. My one top tip would be to use a spray on oil for any steaming in the top tray to avoid sticking, and to use hot water in the bottom well to speed up cook time. Highly, highly recommend.

David K. Great to use and easy to clean and transport. Curried chicken rice cane out a treat as well as ramen. Great product would highly recommend

Jacqueline Morales My 2 Itakis came in today and I got so excited so tested it out right away! Shrimp came out perfect and bouncy and the noodles were surprisingly not soggy at all. My hubby and I will be with our Itakis A LOT in the coming days. Probably won't be eating out for a while anyways by the look of things right now!

Sara M Yummy curry following Emmymade's recipe by the work desk done in less than 20 minutes! We have our own private little Facebook Group with several hundred Itaki users started by us Itaki newbies who love creative food making :) https://www.facebook.com/groups/2320895434837292/

Jameshia J. I LOVE THIS THING! I can't believe the power it has to be so compact! The food comes out HOT and delicious! Meat is cooked all the way through and one can achieve some pretty awesome flavors! I have been preparing meals and putting them in zip lock bags in the freezer. You can pull out a frozen pack and cook it to perfection in this product! The size is PERFECT for making a pretty good sized lunch or dinner. Definately thinking of buying more for fam and friends as gifts! ;3 (Also the lil character on the front is cute.)

Adrianna Lovely dimsum while working. So easy and useful! My only complaint is their recipebook only has low carb chicken and veggie options so if you aren't into that kind of stuff better try other steam recipes or join an Itaki group.

Kendra B. Wrong COLOR! I ordered black but received PURPLE! Can someone help??

Anna Beautiful and cute packaging :)

Amanda N. Perfect healthy meals by my desk. I love it!

Wendy No more takeouts! As soon as I saw this I thought to myself NO MORE TAKEOUTS! AND IT DOES NOT DISAPPOINT! Fresh homecooking everyday :)

Michael Compact, yet huge capacity for great steamed food. I tested out the pro model the moment I received it. Threw in some rice, veggies and some sauces. Every veggie was cooked perfectly and the rice was nice and fluffy.

Nancy Moynihan Great Product, Mediocre Support The hardware is efficient, effective and safe. It is actually a very clever way to cook a variety of foods without much effort. I like it and would definitely recommend it, especially to people who don't have a kitchen. My issue with this product is the support behind it. The recipe book I received is pretty lame, actually more of a quick product guide. There are recipes online but few and the instructions are often confusing, misleading or wrong in some way. They include an egg stand with the hardware but nowhere! (not online or in printed info) do they tell you how to use that egg stand! So the user is left to sort out what will work and what will not work, which part of the recipe is correct and how to expand on the recipes that will work. That said, I like the product and hope the support improves soon.

Vanessa It saved me, completely!!! I am very very happy with my Itaki pro. I am a coeliac, that's the main reason why I chose to buy it. In the kitchen people are using a lot of wheat flour to cook nearly everyday and sometimes they don't even clean. With my Itaki I can cook most of food in my room, avoiding accidental cross contamination at all and eating more than I did before, as I was scared of being glutened. I will bring this fantastic jewel on holiday with me always and it will allow me to save a lot of money as well, because I buy fresh and naturally gluten free food like meat, rice... . Really really happy with that, thank you!!

Food vlogger Loving my Itaki!

Janice O Great customer service they gave me free metal bowls

Dia Venezuela Such a cute concept that actually DOES something. It's not scammy like those other ads. Love it!

kelvin J Good for Korean food, pot ramen and stuff like that. I'm happy with it

Winston The lid came broken and the box was squished. Help?

Ben Salazar It's actually quite useful if you can get over the look. Cooks raw stuff in respectable time. Overall good purchase!

Naomi Great for travel! Bring an adapter just in case. No more eating out!

Stella J. Excellent idea. The inserts are very good quality and easily removable for washing. The lunchbox cooks quite quickly and does not overcook or make meats tough like on the stovetop. Overall very decent!

Olivia Love my Itaki!!

Cyrus Wu It's not a new concept but works pretty well..

Deanne S. Absolutely adorable! It also does what is described. I'll post more pictures in our Itaki group when I get the hand of it!

Andy C. It is a useful item but the courier service they used was awful. They missed a delivery but didn't even leave out a note. After a month I realized it's no where to be found and realized they already returned it. Luckily customer service did replace it, but not pleasant experience

Shanel My parcel got stolen and USPS won't do nothing about it. What am I supposed to do now??!!

Elena J It's really cute and works

Helen g. Nice function and works but is a little on the small side for family cooking. I should have gotten that jumbo one.

Paula Didn't think it'd work that well but got it out of curiousity. I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised! Perfect chicken and shrimp in 30 minutes!

Christy Jo Ann Makes great sauces!

Irene I never eat out anymore with my Itaki and Shabuki Pots. Perfect ramen by my desk or even in my room. Yay!

Christine Another Itaki thing I fell for Itaki lunchbox and loved it so is it much surprise I would like this?? It's super handy and cooks really really fast. I bring fresh ingredients in a normal lunchbox put it in the fridge and when I want soup or ramen I use Shabuki and for rice dishes I use the Itaki. My co-workers look at me drooling but this one is actually big enough portion to share!

Andrea m get the Pro one Itaki Pro model is amazing and I love it, perfect portions cooks very well and looks good! If it's just review for the Pro I give it 5 stars!!. but I have to say I ordered the CLASSIC the first time, too small and side locks look weak. I'd give that maybe 3 stars to be honest. The itaki customer service is very good though, and they emailed me back and quick to send me a pink Pro. Great customer service, but sorry guys the classic one I really wasn't a fan of! I highly recommend Itaki but I would get Pro instead of the classic for a gift next time.

Daniela Lovee it!! I got the Itakii pro Black just cause of how it looks to be honest and I was skeptical at first as I can't imagine how something like this could cook raw stuff but after trying to cook curry chicken with it I'm amazed to say the least!! Probably best curry chicken i ever made! Did it again in our workplace cafeteria too and it's a hit. It's cute portable and quiet so I'm comfortable bringing it anywhere <33

Juliet missing piece Just received this and haven't tried it yet but the user/recipe guide was missing. Can you provide me with one please?

Keele B Honestly I'm surprised I'm skeptical (yet I still fall for slick marketing) but you never know right? Currently have to say I'm starting to fall in love with this little Itaki thing. Gosh the rice cooks so well and when cooking meat it's tender and delicious. I only wished there were more recipes, more 'hearty' recipes instead of that 'healthy' crap.

Lori T. Its like a mini cooker I'm surprised a mini cooker can be made so lightweight and portable. I don't work so I haven't tried it 'on the go', but I can see how it would be easy to carry.

Paul Kim We use it for travelling! My wife found this and got one for each of us and the kids. It's our personalized cooker everytime we're at hotels. Saves so much on expensive eatery although I would prefer a less eccentric design!

Sherri V Works in Australia I took a chance and didn't know if it would work in Australia, but the plug and voltage are all right. Works great!
