HipVan’s Food Steamer Delivery Policy

Here’s what you should know about our delivery policy.

• Delivery

  The length of delivery will depend on the item you order with the longest estimated arrival time. In some cases, our team may have to ship your items separately because of the nature of the products. However, from this, you will not incur any additional delivery charges.

  For orders that contain at least one furniture item, the delivery fee is a flat rate of $25, while orders without any furniture items will have a flat fee of $2.99. If your order reaches $300 and above, then you are eligible for our free shipping service.

• Cancellation Policy

  If you’ve changed your mind, you can cancel your order at no extra cost and receive a full refund for the item(s) you wish to cancel. The refund will be processed using the same payment method as your original transaction. However, please be aware that once you've received an email confirming the delivery of your order, the delivery costs become non-refundable. Additionally, there is a restocking fee of 18% of the item's price. Therefore, the refunded amount will be calculated as follows:

  Refunded Amount = Final Paid Price - Delivery Fee - Restocking Fee (18% of Final Paid Price)

  This policy is in place because, at the point of order delivery confirmation, the item is already in transit on our delivery truck, and we have already incurred costs in preparing and scheduling the delivery.

  Additionally, please know that our cancellation policy does not apply to made-to-order items, as they cannot be returned or cancelled after purchase.

Is steaming food healthier than boiling or frying?

Food steamers provide a healthier alternative to frying or sautéing. Steaming uses no oil, helping you lock in natural flavours and nutrients while keeping your meals low in fat.

Unlike grilling or baking, which can dry out your food, steam cooking preserves moisture- so your dishes stay tender, juicy, and full of taste.

Electric food steamers are also designed for convenience and efficiency. Many models feature multiple tiers, allowing you to steam different foods at the same time. Whether you’re preparing vegetables, seafood, rice, or dim sum, you can enjoy a complete, nutritious meal with minimal effort.

Are electric food steamers better than traditional ones?

Electric steamers offer several advantages over traditional steamers. They are quicker, easier to use, and require minimal supervision. Once the timer is set, the appliance can do the rest of the work. Electric models often have multiple tiers for cooking different foods at once, and built-in safety features. Both types deliver healthy results, but electric steamers provide more convenience and efficiency, while traditional steamers promote a simple, durable design that’s ideal for those who value tradition and versatility without relying on electricity.

How do I clean and maintain a food steamer?

Cleaning a food steamer is straightforward. After use, allow the appliance to cool, then wash the trays and baskets with warm, soapy water. Most are also dishwasher safe. Wipe the base with a damp cloth, avoiding submerging electrical parts if using an electric steamer. Regularly descale the water reservoir to prevent mineral buildup, ensuring your steam cooker stays efficient and hygienic.

Do your food steamers come with a warranty?

Most of our food steamers include a limited warranty. Please refer to the product page for details or contact our support team for more information.
