Best Multi Cookers

It doesn't get up to pressure. During the early years of ownership it took a very long time to reach pressure but did cook eventually. I rarely… Read more

used it because of this. I didn't know it should not take that long until I got a cheapy pressure cooker recently. I contacted Breville and as it was just outside of warranty (I paid extra for 2 year warranty too) they wouldn't replace the unit or cover repairs or refund. They offered half off a new replacement unit but why would I want that when it takes so much longer to get up to pressure? I wanted a refund or credit to buy a different Breville product from their webstore like their reliable espresso machines I have owned for many years. For such an expensive appliance this is pathetic after sales service. My Aldi pressure cooker at fraction of the price works faster and better.

Makes excellent omelette. Easy to use and clean. Good product to use. Show details

Great, don't know how we managed before this product came on the market. Show details

My Gas Stove and Oven isn't working, so I have been using this Telfal Cook4Me and it's attachment steam basket, but it has recipe's on it and easy to use and best all in one cooking ever... YOU CAN COOK A 3 COURSE MEAL, STARTER, MAIN & DESSER.. Show details

No book on instructions of how to use functions. It comes with instruction manual stating what each button is named. Some recipes call for pleasure cook for 1 1/2 hours times only goes for 59 minutes? Show details

Deffinitly great little product, you can use it for a host of recipes. Show details

I have had it for app 5 years, it has been excellent, from cooking full chicken, tuna mornay and casseroles Easy to use. I use it more than an oven, heats up very quickly and a lot of settings

By far, the worst multi cooker I’ve used. We couldn’t do a casserole or soup as the cooker immediately burnt the bottom when it came to temperature.… Read more

It would throw a “burn food” error and stop. We changed the insert twice, to an actual non stick variant, but it did the same thing. It went straight in the bin….

This has been a life changing purchase which my wife and love and use at least once a week. We have owned it for about 2-3 years and it has not… Read more

missed a beat. My wife wanted a slow cooker but i wanted a pressure cooked so this was the compromise. We now rarely use the slow cooker as you can get the same result in a much shorter time with pressure cooking. My wife is converted and it is hard to imagine not owning this. So much so we have looked at purchasing a another one as a back up if this one does stop working. The seal does stretch over time, so we have purchased a spare for this, but that is after at least 2 years of regular use. The seal is still working, just a slightly looser fit than when we purchased it. We have cooked roasts, stews, risottos, rice, soups and many other meals in this pressure cooker. All with great success. I would highly recommend this product to others, and i hope they have as much success with it as we have.

My experience with Tefal Cook4Me New Model CY9128 – I bought this top of the range model specifically for the supposed WiFi connection capability, which should provide many hundreds of extra recipes… Read more

via WiFi. If the item hadn’t been spruiked as having that capacity, I would have bought a cheaper model. Wishing I had done this now, as I have wasted 3 full days trying to connect it via WiFi. The WiFi part is working fine, but there is nowhere on the Tefal App or their website where to insert the Association Code generated by the Cook4Me to give me access to the hundreds of recipes online. So, just wondering if anyone out there has bought this model and successfully paired it online??? If not, perhaps this part of the item is faulty/inoperable. I would like to provide the manufacturer with an accurate review, especially if this part of the item is a dud. I think this item only went to market in February of this year. Many thanks for any help provided. Tefal Customer Service was very reluctant to help, and only sent irrelevant information, assuming I was in the wrong. I bought the original Cook4Me many years ago, so am fairly familiar with it.

Pretty happy – I've had the Multi Chef for more than 7 years although it's only been in the last few months that I've used it regularly. First, it was to cook rice,… Read more

and for that it does a great job. I use it several times a week for rice. Simply use the correct water & rice ratio, and the machine will turn itself off and beep when the rice is done. Much better than cooking on the stove top where you have to keep an eye on it and obviously turn it off when it's done, or in the microwave where it would always boil over and make a mess. I sometimes use the steamer basket to cook veggies at the same time as cooking rice, which is very handy and efficient. I also use the slow cooker low & high functions several times a week now, and most of the time I preface the slow cook with the sear/saute. I LOVE that there is a sear function on the machine so that I can brown meats and saute onions/garlic etc directly in the slow cooker, rather than having to dirty another pan. The sear could be a bit stronger, but all in all it's fine. I wish it had a timer/delayed start though, for the days when I go to the office but only need it to cook for a few hours. Without a delayed start, I'm restricted to recipes that require at least 8 hours of cooking. The non-stick coating on the inner pot insert is pretty cr*p though, it's totally scratched even though I only use silicone or wood utensils. I think the bones of meat sitting in the pot is enough to scratch it. Luckily it is possible to buy a replacement pot as a spare part - I think that's really important and it's great that Breville offers this, rather than forcing consumers to throw away the whole unit because of one damaged part.

Edited to add on 3/4/2024: My machine has stopped working now, after owning it for 8 years and using it regularly for 1 year. The heating element stopped heating. I won't repurchase because of the non-stick coating on the inner pot, which flakes too easily and I can't imagine how much of it has gotten into our food. That was by far my biggest complaint about this machine. I would easily have repurchased it if the inner pot was stainless steel.

AVOID CROCK-POT AND NEWELL BRANDS – Crock-Pot is part of the multinational corporation Newell Brands. Under their "Corporate Citizenship" they state: "At Newell Brands, we are… Read more

committed to being a responsible corporate citizen. From ensuring we offer rewarding career opportunities and comprehensive benefits to our employees and holding ourselves accountable to the highest safety standards for our products and people to MINIMIZING OUR IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT, partnering with our suppliers on responsible sourcing and giving back to the communities in which we operate, we believe we can make a meaningful difference in our communities locally and globally." Perhaps they would like to explain why they don't even bother to provide a list of authorised small appliance repairers to fix their global design fault known as the "E5 Error" that occurs on their Crock-Pots, and for which their suggested trouble shooting protocol does not work. It *should* be an inexpensive wire or sensor repair, but no - Crock-Pot, via Newell Brands, does NOT support the product once out of warranty, will not provider any repairer contact details, and in fact, tells you to "throw it away". Into landfill. An otherwise perfectly good machine, loads of steel, other metals, electricals etc - all to be thrown into landfill, and to harm the environment! And all for a design fault of their own creation, and a wire. DO NOT SUPPORT ANY CORPORATION THAT IS ALL FAUX CARE, AND NO RESPONSIBILITY. Buy a different, and actually environmentally responsible brand.

Terrible – The pre heat function takes forever, when set to "slow cook mode" had 2 hours left on the timer however when I opened the lid to check the food i kid… Read more

you not STONE COLD and food was still raw ended up having to bin the food because of how long it sat there, there are different lid locks for certain cook methods which is stupid considering it has a valve for pressure release, the appliance has just recreated the wheel into an over complicated and not useful space waister returning after 1 use, teefal needs to reconsider their products before launch this could honestly just be a faulty product but I'm not willing to throw out more food just for the sake of retrying this product

reliable tool – I use one of these commercially and it's produced more than a thousand meals. Like a metric ton of food. It's a unit. Exceptionally valuable to… Read more

time casseroles, pressure cook rehydrated (raw) kidney beans, make stock from bones. Makes rice very quickly.

I's not very powerful as a stove, but saves dirtying a second pot

The seal is notably good, one lasted me 4 years. The pot is great, but it's non stick so don't scratch it.

The pressure vent can get jammed with foam from things, notably some legumes. You can put a drop of oil in it like you would pasta water to reduce foaming, and it also helps not to release the pressure early in these cases. At worst, throw a tea towel over it before venting.... if you really had to.

Can you use it to pressure can? I wouldn't, but yea you could.

When I found that the multicooker wasn't working I emailed the company and Nezie organised a replacement within a week. Excellent service.

Its saute function is completely useless. It cant even brings liquids to a simmer after 10 minutes. Otherwise it's pretty standard. I'm glad I bought it second hand (it's still pretty new by the looks of it, I can see why it was moved on)

New favourite kitchen gadget! – Absolutely love our new oval multi cooker, such a great size for a family of 5 and makes cooking dinner so much easier! We’ve made ribs, mac n cheese, slow cooked lasagne and even boiled eggs in our multi cooker and can’t wait to make more! Show details

takes no more than a minute to work out hows this air fryer works.

Having previously had two Ninja Foodi Multi Cookers over the past eighteen years, it is a joy to have a large tray and space to air fry more items at the same time. Just one issue, be aware that the the lid is very hot after use.

Highly recommend this unit - a reasonable price, easy to use and does all it says.

The Russell Hobbs consumer affairs department in Australia have clarified that a new cooking pan can be purchased directly through them - which gives one peace of mind knowing, if required, that a replacement pan is available in Australia.

This one runs on 1400 W with low/medium/high heat settings, and its non-stick coating makes cooking and cleaning easier. The dual pot feature lets… Read more

you prepare two foods at once, which is convenient for varied meals. Overall, it’s good for everyday home cooking and offers flexibility in one countertop cooker, though it’s not designed for commercial use.

It does what it’s supposed to do – This appliance is awesome. I’ve had it for 19 years and it’s still going really well. It’s easy to use and easy to clean. My main dish I make in it is stroganoff, with a cheaper meat and it comes out tender. Show details

Our pressure cooker only lasted us a year before it started malfunctioning saying that the lid was not sealed. We could only do short 10 minute cooks with this fault. Don’t recommend at all.

Awesome rice cooker – I have had this for a few years now replacing an old non stick rice cooker. I love the peace of mind all of the high quality stainless steel parts… Read more

give me. Plus they are all super easy to clean. Like any appliance they always have their quirks, so with this rice cooker I usually have to stop it before the timer is done otherwise the rice burns to the bottom, but if you follow the cues of how much steam is coming out, it tells you that the rice is nearly done. I turn it off when there’s just a little bit of water left in the bottom, close the lid and just let the residual heat cook the rest of the water away for a few minutes. I’m yet to cook other things in it but love that I have the option to do that. The only thing that would make it better would be if it had a countdown timer to show how long the cycle has left. I love it, it’s quality, it looks nice, it cooks the most beautiful rice and most of all it’s non toxic

I would have expected better from this brand – Not happy with my recent purchase of this item. The electrical cord that plugs into the unit itself is very loose and doesn’t stay in especially if… Read more

you push the buttons to start or stop it the whole unit will slide across your kitchen bench top and the plug will fall out of the unit, it doesn’t matter how hard you push it in the cord is loose, I was told that’s normal but I dislike it greatly. Then there’s the issue of not being alerted to when the cooking process has finished, the unit will NOT make a beeping sound so if you walk away from cooking and come back in say a hour the unit could have finished cooking 40 minutes ago but you didn’t know that due to lack of a buzzer or bell. The lack of recipes for this is none existent and you have to guesstimate water ratios and tweaking recipes, who has time for that. The rubber seal around the lid is atrocious in it’s design because it gathers water in the rim and when you open the lid the water spills out all over the place and once you lift the bowl out after cooking the residual water in the rubber seal will spill onto the ‍cooking element at the bottom of the cooker, fire hazard as well as burning out the element before 12 months warranty is up. I put some mince and veg in my cooker and just had to (wing it) with the program I chose to cook it on and also had to guess how much water to use so I went for quick cook and steam function and just had to check it every 20 minutes to see when it had finished cooking, it doesn’t even show you a time after you select a program I absolutely hate that, this so poorly designed because when the water spills out from under the rim when you open the lid and then your loose cord attachment comes out and could be sitting in the spilled water without you knowing and the power is still on !!! Well put it this way I would not go to bed or leave the house if this was cooking anything just in case a fire started, we all know water and electricity doesn’t mix, the slow cook function is preset for 8 hours only it’s the only time guide available for this item apart from the porridge soup buts only written in the booklet not on the machine I can’t tweak it for like 4 hours but I guess if you wanted 4 hours then set a timer on your phone for the 4 hours and go and check the food but then I’d be wondering if it’s cooked properly, but again it’s a lot of guess work and I’m not at all happy.

Disappointed – I purchased my Morphy Richards MultiPress from Costco a few years ago. Although it looks fancy it is an overpriced pile of junk. It takes three times… Read more

longer to cook a Jaffle than my cheap Breville appliance. It eventually does the job but does not seem to get hot enough to make a Jaffle promptly. I’m not sure if this is because it is made for cooking multiple foods that require less heat but for the price of this appliance one would expect multiple cooking settings instead of a simple on and off twist knob.

Another shortcoming with the Morphy Richards MultiPress is can only store flat in the cupboard it won’t sit upright on its back unless it is placed on its side. There is also no built in wrap around cord storage so the cord is often slivering around in bottom of the cupboard.

All in all I’m dissatisfied with the performance of this unit.

I'm very happy with this air fryer. It also has 2 years warranty and Big W will refund your money anytime during the warranty period. Much easier dealing with Big W than an online seller. Show details

This rice cooker has been a great addition to our kitchen. No more burnt or under cooked rice. It has a few different functions, like porridge, jam… Read more

etc. We use it for rice and its ready in an hr. I set it and it does it's thing, makes great sushi rice as well. Dishwasher safe, comes with a measuring cup, 2 scoops, a rice scooper and a ladle like scooper both durable plastic. The bowl is great but you need to be careful not to scratch the coating off. Our kids use it with ease, it's easy to clean, I like how I can clean it with ease and wipe the machine down with ease. Once your rice cooks it automatically switches to the warming setting. I like to turn it off straight away though and wipe it down straight away. It is surprisingly light and cooks fantastic rice. We purchased this from Costco a few years ago now as the price was cheaper than your normal appliance stores. Like anything, as long as you look after it and keep it clean it'll serve you well.
