The Omcan 11384 Food Steamer
The Omcan FW-TW-0016 is a 17-quart (16-liter) countertop food steamer and boiler that handles steaming vegetables, seafood, dumplings, tamales, and boiling soups or stocks, all in one unit. The 1,600-watt element heats up fast, and the included pot, lid, strainer insert, and removable insert divider give you the flexibility to steam multiple items simultaneously or boil a full batch of stock without buying separate accessories.
1,600W Fast Heat with Strainer Insert and Divider
The strainer insert sits inside the pot and keeps steamed items above the water line, while the removable divider lets you separate different foods in the same basket so flavors do not transfer between items like broccoli and shrimp during the same cook cycle. At 1,600 watts, the water reaches a rolling boil quickly and maintains steam output consistently. A temperature switch controller lets you adjust the heat level, and an automatic shut-off safety feature prevents the element from running dry if the water boils out.
SUS 304 Stainless Steel Construction
The pot, lid, and strainer are all SUS 304 (18/8) stainless steel at 0.03 in. thickness, which is a food-grade material that resists corrosion from acidic stocks and repeated high-temperature use. The 15.75-inch diameter pot accommodates large batches, and at 17.7 inches tall the unit still fits under standard upper cabinets. It runs on 120V/60Hz and plugs into a standard outlet, making it practical for kitchens, catering prep areas, and buffet back-of-house stations.
