Vapora Microwave Steamer

Vapora

Vapora is a microwave steamer designed for faster and healthier cooking. The steamer combines gentle steam with grill like dry heat. The body and vented lid are made of heat resistant food grade platinum silicone, and the vents regulate internal pressure for even steam circulation. An elevated tray of syndiotactic polystyrene absorbs microwave energy and transfers heat to the food from below, improving texture while keeping ingredients moist. Excess water and fat drain away for lighter meals. Vapora is easy to use, clean and store.

Vapora Microwave Steamer by Nam Soojung was recognized as a grand example of industrial design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Vapora Microwave Steamer earned the Silver A' Design Award in Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware and Cookware Design in 2026. The A' Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware and Cookware Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design competition that honors excellent design of pots, pans, cutlery, plates, bowls, glasses, baking dishes, graters and more.
