Instant Pot Official Mesh Steamer Basket Set – Dual-Purpose Stainless Steel Steamer & Strainer

Elevate your Instant Pot meals with a trusted mesh steamer basket set

The Instant Pot Official Mesh Steamer Basket Set is a versatile pair designed to fit 6- and 8-quart models. Made from durable stainless steel, the baskets work as steamers and strainers, helping you prepare fresh, flavorful meals with minimal effort. The raised feet keep ingredients above boiling water, promoting even steaming and preserving the texture of your produce and proteins.

What you get and how it helps

• Two baskets that nest and stack, letting you plan a complete steamed meal in one go
• Large basket for fish, long vegetables like corn on the cob, and bigger items
• Small basket for wrapped portions, delicate produce, and smaller sides
• Easy-lift handle for safe, confident removal from the pot
• Dual-purpose use as a strainer for rinsing vegetables or draining pasta
• Durable, rust-resistant stainless steel that is dishwasher safe for easy cleanup

Smart setup and everyday use

In practice, you can place the large basket in the pot first and nest the small basket above it to maximize space. Cook multiple items at once without crowding, then lift the basket with the handle and serve with ease. The design supports a range of meals, from simple weeknight dinners to more plated, multi-item plates.

Versatility in action

Steam salmon fillets with citrus over baby potatoes, or keep asparagus separate from cornbread in a single session. Use the small basket for delicate herbs or dumplings and the large one for heartier vegetables. The two-basket layout lets you tailor timing so everything finishes together.

Care, durability, and compatibility

• Dishwasher-safe design makes post‑meal cleanup quick
• Rust-resistant stainless steel resists staining and wear over time
• Compatible with 6-quart and 8-quart Instant Pot pressure cookers
