Original Fasta Pasta Microwave Spaghetti Cooker - Family Size (8 Servings) - Quick, No Mess Pasta Maker - Perfect Al Dente Results Every Time - Ideal for Busy Families, Dorm Rooms & Quick Meals

I really like this pasta cooker. It does a good job of cooking pasta. I have a small microwave and this doesn't rotate on the turntable because it's too large. It doesn't seem to matter, the whole thing is full of boiling water so I've never had any hot spots. The pasta does not stick together. I did have to adjust the cook time to 23 minutes for spaghetti and depending on what kind of pasta you like I'm sure the cook time will have to be adjusted accordingly to your microwave power and pasta type. Still, I was cooking pasta in a 6 quart kettle and this takes up a lot less room in the dishwasher top shelf. It's also very easy to drain pasta with the included cover. My microwave sits on the counter a couple feet from my sink so it's no problem for me to get this out of the microwave and over to the sink to drain it. I just give the pasta another rinse in the container and drain it again, so no dirty colander to wash. I did have the thought that if I had a microwave that was on a higher shelf I would probably have a harder time keeping it level and I might not want to be taking this out of an elevated microwave full of boiling water. It's not sealed and I think it would be pretty easy to spill hot water on yourself. (I am 65 and have some issues with arthritis) But for me and my situation it works great.
