Microwave with steamer?

Our over-the-range microwave blew it's main fuse after 14 years. It was getting greasy, so not inclined to repair. Looking for a model with steam function. You fill an included plastic double boiler with 1/4" of water, then place the veggies in the basket above the water, then set the microwave to run x number of minutes after steam begins to escape.

This is a feature we use often and I cannot find any mention of said feature on any model I've scoured. Also, they don't seem to be stainless inside the oven, only nonstick inside with stainless outside.

Any recommendations? I'm starting to wonder if maybe over-the-range models suffer higher failure and maybe I might have to reconfigure for a countertop or built-in trim model? Wasn't looking to go re-ordering cabinet doors, though.

This one can do that or something similar, I believe. It might be under a "vegetable" sensor setting. Also stainless interior.
