I bought this steamer to replace a ancient, broken one & the first thing that struck my was that it looked well designed. And, to look at it, it is. The tiers stack well within each other for storage & the excess steam capture is superb. My old one used to sit in a puddle of water on the worktop!
In use it steams well, but I suspect you can say that of even the cheapest sold here. However, I don't know of any food which requires 45 minutes to steam. I would bet that most people would set the timer at 25-30 minutes, maximum. So which bright spark at Russell Hobbs thought that setting the steamer at 45 minutes when you turn it on was a good idea?
You have to reduce the time in ONE minute intervals, but you increase it in FIVE minute intervals. If you are careless like me, you'll miss the time you need by a minute, have to increase it by FIVE & come back down by four. What a pain!
So in all(?) cases you will need to press the time button A LOT, which means within a couple of weeks the image on the button has worn off. Great design, again? Perhaps this is also the reason why, after a few months our first steamer wouldn't let us reduce the time at all. Amazon replaced it within the week & so far the new one has worked okay. But it has lost its button images already.
As a steamer it works well, if you can put up with its foibles. The people at Russell Hobbs clearly don't use steamers, otherwise they would have had a more sensible default time. It's a pain, but not a deal breaker, I suppose, but this design stupidity IS reflected in my rating.

We have always done well with cheap plastic steamers, and when the previous one broke, we went for this model as liked the idea of the digital time. After 6 months, it has been thrown in the bin. The timer function is crazy, so frustrating to use. You have to count in multiples of 5!! The buttons are very un-reliable and the display doesn`t always display properly. It broke completely this evening. I turned it on, the clock displayed but none of the buttons would work. When it worked it was fine, but so many times for no reason it just would not function.
Have now gone for a decent, more expensive Prestiage model. Avoid this one at all costs.

Requested this as a Christmas gift as our existing one was 7 years old. 4 months later and it has broken. Right from the start we didn't like it. It doesn't cook food well and its claims for how long it takes to cook food are way to short. After a couple of months the digital display started to go funny with the numbers not displaying correctly and now the heating element doesn't work. Avoid.
