Today, the multicooker is one of the most important items in the kitchen. They differ in the number of functions and power. Choosing the right model is often not easy because of the huge range. We will learn how to choose the “same” multicooker, and what are the advantages of each of the well-known brands.

How to choose a multicooker

Unlike cooking in ordinary pots and pans, a slow cooker does not require supervision. Having loaded the necessary products, you need to set the appropriate mode, press the button and the equipment will do everything for you. The multicooker bowl comes in three types of coating:

1. Teflon. Non-stick properties and ease of washing are its main advantages. The coating lasts no more than 2-3 years, since the appearance of scratches makes it toxic. We recommend using only silicone spatulas and spoons to prevent the bowl from wearing out as quickly as possible.

2. Ceramic. It is not afraid of washing with a brush and small scratches, but it is not recommended to wash the bowl in the dishwasher or drop it. The product is more expensive, its main advantage is the absence of toxins when scratches appear.

3. Stainless steel. The coating is resistant to mechanical damage, lasts longer than others and does not cause allergies. The bowl can be used as a separate cooking utensil on the stove. A significant disadvantage is that dishes can stick to the bottom and walls.

4. Additional functions of multicookers vary: “frying”, “bread machine”, “multi-cook”, “pressure cooker”, “milk porridge” option for children, “deep fryer”, “grill”, “deep frying”.

5. As for the size of the multicooker, there are three-dimensional models and compact ones. The latter will be the best option for a family of 2-3 people.

We have selected the top 10 multi-cookers of various types, after analyzing the advice of the best experts and consumer reviews.
