Multicooker or pressure cooker?

I have had a pressure cooker since 1975.
What can you say about it in comparison with a multicooker? It goes without saying that the processor, electricity and versatility!
What else?
I rarely cook in it, mainly rice, meat. Useful capacity 4 liters.

Go to the Multicooker topic, everything is written there, and all the reviews and disputes about it. And you yourself will understand everything

In order not to open another topic about the same.

I did not find pressure cookers on the forum at all, and a comparison with them! And just read information about steamers, multicooker.
This is not an answer

Rem, They are different. The pressure cooker works under pressure. The multicooker has a slightly different - longevity. You can't peep into a pressure cooker, but in a cartoon you can if you suddenly forgot to put something or interfere. Or fry the meat before stewing with the lid open. In this case, you do not need to fry in a pan (accordingly, you do not need to wash the pan and stove).

Any meat is perfectly cooked in a mult. Due to prolonged extinguishing - almost any

And the number of dishes cooked in a multicooker cannot be compared with cooking in a pressure cooker. You can read about this in the topic about multicooker.

The essential difference is that multicooker users use them all the time (I personally do it several times every day) and cook a wide variety of dishes in the multicooker. For example, for breakfast we usually cook eggs and steamed young potatoes in the cartoon, then I load soup / borscht or meat with a side dish for lunch, then for dinner I can still make (again in the cartoon) a curd cake or lazy steamed dumplings, or some casserole, or porridge. Today I ate hot porridge for breakfast, which I put on the timer in the evening, cooked eggs for my husband in a steam basket, now I stew meat and potatoes for the children, then we will return from a walk - a hot lunch will be waiting for us. And it’s not hot in the kitchen, you don’t need to follow the cooking, I loaded the products and in 1-1.5 hours everything was ready. Convenient device

The multicooker prepares everything, without your participation, without the danger of burning, drying; does not expose food to the aggressive effects of a pressure cooker. Its principle is akin to the Russian stove - a stable low-temperature effect without excess air access. Different order of protein transformation, preservation of pectin chains. The aroma is in the saucepan, not in the steamer. A pressure cooker has not yet become a constant-use apparatus - I have had three of them, everything has been eliminated, like the oven and the four-burner stove. All replaced by microwave convection and cartoon. In place of the oven there is a dishwasher. No steam, no burning, no burnt oils. One omelet is worth something!

Not everyone has a 1975 pressure cooker, you can only compare yourself by reading the information about the multicooker (and there are many of them) and comparing it with your pressure cooker.

Thanks everyone for the answer! My conclusion: the advantages of multi over a pressure cooker are safety, big time savings and better quality of the original food!

Fair conclusion

Actually, "original" is the original. So what initial products do you put in, from these you will cook

Maybe they meant the food that is obtained as a result, at the exit?

I have had a pressure cooker for a very long time. As far as I can remember, she was with us all the time. I cook a little in it.I cook beets, chicken for salad, broth, and maybe that's all. In the cartoon I cook all the time and practically everything.

And if you remove the valve from the electric pressure cooker, will it look like a multicooker? She will have all the functions, only pressure will not be created. Maybe I am wrong?

natalka, I see you have Unit 1000. And how does it differ from Panas in terms of functions?
I'm completely confused ...
The unit thought only a pressure cooker. .. Is there fast cooking in Panas?
If so, why do you need two units?

I thought everything was just decided on Тмн18. And it turns out there is still a multi-hunter.
Oh, there would be a lot of money I would buy everything - hotter, unit and Panas.

People, help! What to choose?

I realized that a hotter can fry and deep-fry, but does not bake ...
Yes, it's hard ... ਻ 唀 ΐ

I chose about the same, but it happened to be the first to buy a large multicooker and over time I realized that one is not enough for us. At this time, I was staring at Unit1000 (it was easier to buy it both in terms of price and availability in stores) because there is a "Soup" program there and the volume for this program is very suitable for me in 6 liters. This saucepan is really a pressure cooker, but with the functions of a multicooker. There is "rice / porridge", "chicken" (young meat), "baked goods", "soup", "meat / beans" (for hard meats) and one program can be set manually. I probably use Unitom even more than a Multicooker precisely because of the cooking speed, but this did not prevent me from buying a second (small) Mulka, and the other day also Master-pilaf. And by the way, very often three devices work at once, but the hob is now completely superfluous in my kitchen, I rarely use it. But about Hotter (I also stared at him for a while) I read a not quite flattering review on the forum and refused this purchase, although I'm not sure if everything is so scary. And if I had my way, I would have bought it again, but this is already some kind of collecting, because so many of the same type of pots are no longer needed. In general, there are many advantages in Hotter: a window, two saucepans, frying and deep-frying functions. I think that he is not bad either.

I have 2 large multi (old and new), airfryer, master pilaf, double boiler and gas stove, and everything works for me. Happy as an elephant. And I'm not even going to give up anything. After all, something turns out better in one device, something in another. The pilaf cooked in the cartoon and in the master pilaf are completely different. Dieters eat, children - there is a cartoon, if not - master pilaf, there is more fried, richer in seasonings and terribly tasty. It depends on who you cook for.

Thank God that today there is a choice and you can have it. 10 years ago there was no such assortment, so they got used to the stoves. and today how can you make your job easier. The husband says, she made it out: the machine washes, cooks a cartoon, bakes bread, a chicken is baked, and she is watching TV. It happens. It's worth having everything for this. For yourself and your family.

[Yukka]

Yukka , I have an airfryer, a multicooker and a pressure cooker Unit - everything is in demand
The girls wrote correctly - the devices differ in their functions, but they help a lot to live, you go to the kitchen with pleasure to cook
I also want Master-pilaf, but I haven't met yet, how I will meet, I will definitely buy

I absolutely agree with the previous speakers:
I have a small cartoon, a large multi-hooter, an airfryer and everything is in demand! They complement each other very well.

Thanks a lot to everyone for the advice.
Uh, but it didn't get any easier for me - I want everything.
Only now the order is a little determined.
The grill is not needed yet. Pressure cooker .... I'm so dark that I don't even know what delicious things can be made in it. Only the speed of cooking attracts ...
If not difficult, name a couple of reasons for its usefulness and necessity.

I am now rushing between cartoon and multi-hunter.
And ... somehow the second is more drawn. I'm just constantly being led to the maximum of functions.
But I found a hotter only in one Internet store and at a price more than a cartoon.

And the last question.
larimari, how do you live without a pressure cooker?

Again I torment everyone with questions. Excuse me

[Yukka!]

Yukka! while I live quietly without a pressure cooker, and there is nowhere to put it (it still seems to me so).
And Hotter is a wonderful thing, I am very pleased with it, but for some reason I could not resist and bought another little cartoon, and I am also happy ... I cook something in the cartoon, something in Hotter

I have a multicooker, a pressure cooker and an airfryer. If I had to buy everything again, I would buy in the order in which I wrote.

I go into everything. That's what I don't understand. Now in one online store I saw everything and a unit, and a Panas, and a hotter. And on ALL it was written a slow cooker (pressure cooker). What does it mean? I thought the pressure cooker was just a Unit?

I found a multichotter only in one place for 5000, a unit for 3400 and a Panasonic for 3850.

Well take a hotter?
Is it not expensive for him?

[Yukka]

Yukka
Multichotters for sale only in the network "Seven Hills" , there you can also order it with home delivery. Its price is really around 5 thousand.
A pressure cooker from all of you listed only UNIT.
If you can't choose in any way - start with Panasonic, and with a large multi. Get used to it, and there you will see what kind of device you still need

Larimari, and I didn't think about the little one for a second.
And I found the hotter not in 7 hills, in the electric comfort.

Now I read the forum. Your throes of choice. You started with a hotter.
Okay, I will think further ... until the thoughts become completely ill ...

You can try to start with the Unit pressure cooker, because in Real stores it costs 2100-2500r. This is the most reasonable price for today.
They are all really very different and complement each other. Even with similar programs, identical dishes from different pots will taste differently.
I started with Cartoon and it was probably right. The only thing I regret is that I do not have the opportunity to take possession of the Multichotter (there is nowhere to put it).

My Multichotter lost to Master-pilaf, I tend to the latter more
while I wait ... you can't tram your family like that ...
let them calm down a little

natalka, what price you wrote for the unit. I found at least 3380, I think.
And what is Real? Give a reference, please.

[Yukka!]

Yukka! That's right, I started with the Multichotter, because Panasonic could not fit in height in the space allocated for the cartoon (I mean a large cartoon). But after looking at the photo of how Shpilka's kitchen is arranged (she has a very small kitchenette), I realized that I could put the cartoon on the refrigerator (I already had a juicer there). And here I am, too, with a cartoon from Panasonic, though small.
And Real means this one (they seem to have no website):

larimari, I envy you ... Both cartoon and hotter.
And I am afraid after acquiring one of these miracles of technology I will not dare to take another one. The toad will strangle me. I am very economical in life.
The functions are the same ... And I really want to bake, and deep fat, and fry.
Almost decided on a hotter. Two points are straining - here are most of the owners of cartoons and recipes for them. And the second, I understood. that hotter often comes without a recipe book.

About Real, I asked, and then I found it myself.
Only there is no information about prices. And there is no online store.

Well, you are in Moscow, and there are a lot of Reals in the district. You can drive about the nearest one and find out. I also ordered a Unit for myself via an online store for 3-something thousand (in our Real at that time they weren't there, but I wanted them urgently), and took my friends in Real for 2350r. Try, maybe you will be lucky to start for 2 kopecks.

Natalka, for me the option of real stores is now temporarily eliminated. I have a small child.

I didn't look at unit 800. Since the maximum pulls

Pravilino. Better immediately to the maximum so that later it would not be offensive. But look at Techhoom anyway. Their prices and assortment change every day, so Unit 1000 may appear at a normal price. Their prices for Mulki since the summer have dropped very decently (they cost 6-7 thousand).

natalka, then I will drop in.
Although I kind of decided on a multi-hunter.
Oh, I don't know myself. And the time for reading any information in the net is limited (the baby takes all the time).
It seems like you want Panasonic because of the abundance of recipes for it and the availability of the majority, but your eyes still look at the hotter.

But what can I say ... about the same and HP chose.
I'll think about it for another day or two and I need to decide.

Yes, you are not looking at recipes ... all the same can be done in other multicooker. Over time, adapt the recipes for the Multichotter, it is probably also good. That only there is a window and two saucepans. And the frying / deep-frying function is also not superfluous. If you decide on a Hotter, then take it.

Natalka, thank you very much! You are helping me a lot!

And what negative have you read in due time, that you refused to buy it?

[Yukka]

Yukka, as a person who already has both a multi-hunter and a multicooker, choosing now would also be tormented. In a hotter, rice and buckwheat are cooked twice as fast, and frying is more intense (this is frying). But the cartoon has "baking" and "pilaf" (well, a very convenient program). Recipes for a hotter are quite easy to adapt, the main thing is to understand the principle of cooking. But if your family loves all sorts of charlottes and biscuits, then the choice tends towards the Panasonic multicooker, again, the mode of milk porridge ...
Well, and again I have torments and doubts, although all the instruments are already there ...

[Questions to the owners of the cartoon from the one thinking about buying it]

And what negative have you read in due time, that you refused to buy it?

Read this Temka https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=2228.0, and in particular answer 14 on the link about the reverse side of the Multichotter. There was also a similar article with photos on the site, but for some reason I just can't find it. And read this Temkohttps://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=4784.0 There was also a similar article with photos on the site, but for some reason I just can't find it.
And also read this Temka Questions to the owners of the cartoon from the one thinking about buying it, also a lot of interesting different multicooker

In defense of the multi-hunter, I would like to say the following:
1. The absence of a mains switch also takes place in the Panasonic multicooker.
2. For MultiHotter, the lid is just removed, Panasonic does not. And it is not at all difficult to wash it + there is a window in which you can see what is being prepared and how. And it does not seek to close at all, the author of the article probably did not use this device.
3. I will leave the modes without comment
4. From experience I can say that pots in MultiHotter are more resistant to damage, and washing them by hand is absolutely no problem, I have nothing to stick to them.
5. The tongs are not intended for removing the saucepan, but for lifting the grate that is inserted into the saucepan. And this is not a converted deep fat fryer, deep fat is just a very nice extra feature in a multicooker ...

And also, in the shops "Seven Hills" you can always buy additional pots, grates, etc.

[Wildebeest]

Here's another good cook quote: Wildebeest- multi-hunter is good, but panasik is better. I have this multi-hunter, it perfectly replaced the cauldron for pilaf, deep frying in MX requires two liters of oil, deep frying is harmful to the body. Stew the meat well. We cook in it, but much less often than in Panas. Again, electricity consumes more than my pressure cooker and Panasy combined.
Think. But I love my cartoon, there such biscuits and muffins are obtained, in MX it is not.

[larimari]

larimari, I DO NOT prove that the Multichotter is bad, but I answer the question Yukka- "why did I refuse to buy it?"

[natalka]

natalka ! It's all clear
And I'm trying to tell Yukka what is a multi-hunter. It's just that if there is a question of buying one thing, then you need to have a complete understanding of it. Itself passed through it recently. And in my today's opinion, you need to start with Panasonic, it will be easier to get used to it (many recipes and comments)

I also bought and enjoyed a pressure cooker. But when a knowledgeable person told me that the food from the pressure cooker was not very useful, she stopped using it. High pressure destroys everything that is useful in vegetables and meat. Today I will master my cartoon Sanyo.

Good day! Sesra and I want to buy a multicooker for my mother's birthday, and so I started thinking about buying a multicooker or a pressure cooker-multicooker? Help with advice please!

[Katyushka]

Katyushka,
I gave my mom a multicooker for the new year. She just loved it. She likes to cook cottage cheese casserole, morning porridge, meat and potatoes and bake charlotte in it. In addition, she noted that the cartoon is easy to manage and that she is small, just for her alone. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about the pressure cooker. But being a multi fan, I highly recommend her)))

[Katyushka]

Katyushka
The multicooker is easier to use.
You'd better ask your mom what she likes better.
If a person (like my mother, for example) is not friendly with kitchen appliances, then he doesn't need anything at all.
The pressure cooker seems difficult to operate at first, and then everything is fine.
For me, both the slow cooker and the pressure cooker are good.

For the older (conservative) generation, I would recommend a slow cooker. The steam from the pressure cooker is terrifying. At the moment of pressure build-up, I myself make my legs out of the kitchen, and only the older generation ...

[Hairpin]

Hairpin-
Although I am a middle generation, for the same reason I never use a pressure cooker. At the age of 19 I saw at my friends' (on the stove which) I have been afraid since then)))) But I'm not an indicator: when they open champagne, I ALWAYS hide behind someone's wide back)))))

For the older (conservative) generation, I would recommend a slow cooker. The steam from the pressure cooker is terrifying. At the moment of pressure build-up, I myself make my legs out of the kitchen, and only the older generation ...

My Unit whistles barely audibly when it picks up pressure, the first time I thought something was wrong (remembering the old pressure cooker)
But, if you choose between these two saucepans, a multicooker is better, somehow more functional and lighter, nevertheless ...

Perhaps we will stop at the multicooker. I wish that, in addition to cooking and stewing, it was possible to also make a biscuit. Many thanks to everyone.

And my mother once burned her face with steam from a pressure cooker, and very much ...
It was an accident due to her negligence, but we are still scared ... It's nice that her eyes are intact and there are no scars. For six months the face was healed ...
I want a slow cooker for myself ... I'm sitting reading and want more and more ...
I got a bread maker for a long time.

Hello everyone! Your help is very necessary.
I'm getting married soon, we'll move to a separate apartment, my own and now I'm planning what I need to buy for the kitchen. But the kitchen is small 5.5 + there is a washing machine, and I also don't know how to cook, and I do everything very slowly and for a long time. Therefore, I want equipment that would help speed up the cooking process, and there should not be a lot of it, since the kitchen is small, there is nowhere to put it.
Tell me, dear housewives with experience, what kitchen utensils you need to purchase. From the very beginning, you can use a list (mixer, blender, food processor, pots, pans, steamer, multicooker, pressure cooker, milk cooker, mantle pot, and I also learned about the multi-hooter from you (I didn't understand)) What is needed and what is not, places just a little (
