Choosing a slow cooker, rice cooker (1)

[irson1971]

irson1971, and if you do not get hung up on Panasonic? For this money, you can buy two multicooker from another manufacturer, or even almost a whole one pressure cooker. Or even, to be honest, look for a cuckoo.

A CUCKOO IS NOT MORE EXPENSIVE? I look at you just the Panasonic 18, the one that I want and advise the other ... I don't understand ... it seems that everyone praises the Panasonic.

A CUCKOO IS NOT MORE EXPENSIVE? I look at you just the Panasonic 18, the one that I want and advise the other ... I don't understand ... it seems that everyone praises the Panasonic.

irson1971, we have many Panasonic (but this does not mean anything) - bought a long time ago, when there was no choice and he was the first on the multicooker market. Now there are many analogues. Here, after all, you are also puzzled by an honest Panasonic. And remember - we will not advise bad on this forum. We choose for everyone, like ourselves. When I was choosing a cartoon a year ago, before that I was still reading the weather from the bushes, and then there were already accumulated questions and I, with a yell * cannot be silent *, registered myself. And here is x. the stove arrived in time

shl. Rinchik already answered)))

I’ll go back to Temka what kind of slow cooker to choose ... I’ve read everything there, and of course, like many, I probably would have stopped at the cuckoo 1054, but it’s very expensive and I’m afraid such a multifunctional unit ... if something goes wrong, I’ll be left without anything at all, it’s better separately ... What would you personally recommend?

ty. What would you personally recommend?

a lot depends on - your culinary preferences, how many eaters there are in the family, what kind of life you work, no ... the displacement, again, is not the last thing.

[IRRochka]

IRRochka, Congratulations! Our regiment has arrived! I don't doubt for a second that you will make friends with her! And not only make friends, you will have mutual love with her, you will see!

I have two grown-up men, me and my little daughter, so the saucepan is not small. We love the fried type of baked chicken. For a small porridge, dairy, soups, casseroles, ordinary porridge, rice and I dream of charlotte. There is a yoghurt maker and a double boiler, so these functions and hours are not important for us.

[irson1971,]

irson1971, you have an unplowed field for your pots. Stay with us - we'll open it. For starters, I would take DEX or Perfezza. There are topics here. You need 4 liters, at least.

Perfezza

Perfezza

Does Dex 50 cook milk porridge? I looked at Perfezza, which is quite cheap and it is not known at all about its functions ...

Dex, I do not know, I have not tried it, but they are praised.
0821 I like more Panasonic, a saucepan is better, more power, wonderful porridges, casseroles, charlottes, vegetables, soups and in general a lot of things

Dear girls and boys, Happy New Year! I wish you new necessary and pleasant acquisitions, new reliefs in life, new recipes and all the very best!

I read the whole topic from cover to cover, as they say. I have a Panasonic bread maker and I am insanely happy with bread, dough and everything else. But now I want a slow cooker and my husband, of course, says that we need to take something good right away (hints at Panasonic), but I've read a lot here ... and I even like Perfeza outwardly better.

I have a question, is there something in Panasonic that Perfeza cannot do? This is simply the most important argument for a husband. We also have Cockoo-1010 in our city, maybe there is something special in it? And in general, is the pressure cooker mode also necessary?

In our city, I saw only model 55, and I don't want to order and wait ... especially since there are no special differences in the models.

Thank you very much! It seems to me that you helped me put an end to it and I will go as soon as the child is put to sleep in the store. They have almost taken them apart ... some have a couple more and some have already ended. Considering that Dex with delivery will cost 700 UAH. then this one is better for 750 UAH.

[irson1971,]

irson1971, all multicooker cooks porridge !!! They are initially focused on this. There in China, this is the main food. They are all called there RICE COOKERS. I would pay attention to another 57 perfezza, it has a removable insert on the lid - it is convenient to wash. But it costs around 1000, a little more. Last time I saw it in Technoapolis in 1049.

Multicooker Perfezza PR57

54.00 $ 433.08 UAH it is very cheap and confuses food for a cuckoo too 750 UAH. the price is ridiculous, you need to take it until you disassemble Thank you all for your help in choosing!

And here you do not need to make holes in the eggs, even in the set of "needles" go in egg cookers, maybe it's a stupid question, I've never steamed eggs, and nothing at all.

and I didn't even know that it was POSSIBLE to do this.
I just put the eggs on top, closed and turned on. well, of course, the eggs were washed very well before cooking. when I did it on the stove, I usually didn't wash it, but since I had potatoes down here, I washed the eggs thoroughly so as not to spoil the bottom food.

I have a question, is there something in Panasonic that Perfeza cannot do? This is simply the most important argument for a husband.

as far as I know in perfezz there is exactly what is not in Panasonic.
A friend (the owner of Panasonic) said that there is no timer in Panas, that is, you will not cook with a delay. if I misunderstood, then correct me.
I am personally still attracted by the size of the bucket - 0.5 liters more for me is an argument.
Model 56 and 57 have a removable cover ...

and so ... you need to read and compare, because everyone has their own priorities.

And Happy New Year to you! Well, Panasonic has a recipe book and the instruction seems to be good, but Perfetski does not
I don't know about cookies, I thought and chose between her and Perfezza, but stopped at Perfezza)
and according to the modes - this is for those who have both that and that

I have a little Panasonic cartoon, it has a timer, but only for the programs Buckwheat, Plov, Milk porridge.
And there is no removable cover

Do not worry all modern "fancy" cartoons have a cover that is not removable.
Well, it is impossible to make it filmed in a place with two or three sensors and a lid heating system

natbron, there is a timer in Panassoniki. As far as I understand, in Perfezza there is also a function for heating food - and this is not the case in Panassonica. I think that in both you can cook absolutely everything, and if the price plays a decisive role, then there is nothing to think about.

Thank you!
I live in Europe, but I will probably order from Moscow.
Why is it not necessary to fry meat?

[Multicooker Cucina Italiana]

Recently appeared in Moscow Multicooker Cucina Italiana , you can read the reviews. I personally have a Panasonic for a long time, and I'm happy. On the "stewing" mode, I make meat without preliminary frying. I personally don't need a crust.

And here you can see more other multicooker:
https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&board=487.0

And if the funds allow, then you can consider the cuckoo: https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&board=463.0

I watched all this and got even more confused!
Which one is better ???
Not like in Soviet times, we take everything that was "thrown away", there is no choice, no doubts and questions too!

In Europe, you can also buy something. Take a walk in the Amazons, make a request
multi cooker
rice cooker

At least in the British Amazon there will be a sufficient selection of both simple rice cookers and several types of multicooker (I will tell you a secret, many forum women in our country do just fine with simple rice cookers).

I live in Norway, we have steamers, but they are so primitive, I want something more interesting! And stew meat, and bake bread (VYkin's bread maker!), And yogurt and much more interesting ...

I watched all this and got even more confused!
Which one is better ???

Don't you want someone to come and tell you this is the best one ?? Let me tell you that Panasonic is the best among multicookers. So now a man with sneakers at the ready will come running and throw me, Panasonic and you at the same time. So you still have to choose!

and bake bread (VYkin bread maker!)

WOW !!!! Yes you sho ?? Give up hope everyone who enters here !! In no cartoon can you bake the same bread as in HP.

And then, you know the "golden" rule of the deviceaholic - "one device-one function". I'm talking about baking bread and yogurt.

Why are you so with the bread maker?
Well look at UNOLD though, she's a pandora. And a slow cooker, and a bread maker ...
https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=8558.0

do not ask me about Yunold's functionality, I only turned it on today for the first time.

I would like it to be more spacious in the kitchen, if you can replace several machines with one ...

Most often, this approach does not justify itself. Unless you bake bread exclusively at night, then you can multi-cook it during the day.
The Binaton hybrid may be lighter than the Yunold, https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=65381.0, although I have not read reviews on him (probably in vain, his face is the same as that of the Yunold, only with the Russian text).

My husband and I live together, we don't need much bread, we bake 1-2 times a week.
It's hard to choose!
I will not torment you anymore, please answer what functions should you pay special attention to when choosing, what do you think?

1. Determine your food type. More fried, boiled, stewed?
2. How often will you use baked goods?
3. You need a pot "movable" or stationary.
4. when and who cooks more often, how much time you can spend on it.
5. Do you often have to cook for more than two.

By the way, I can also advise you - pay attention to the pressure cookers. We now have a Mulinex pressure cooker on the market. https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&Itemid=99999999&topic=83783.0

Yes, and why would I not advise giving up a separate bread machine. This technique usually stands in a designated place once and for all, most often somewhere in a corner, only the bucket moves. But the multicooker "rides" on surfaces, depending on what is being prepared, who is cooking, it needs to be washed, wiped inside. A hybrid for such "moving" is heavy and in the end it will take up as much space as a compact bread maker and a conventional multi / rice cooker would.

[svane]

Don't you want someone to come and tell you this is the best one ?? Let me tell you that Panasonic is the best among multicookers. So now a man with sneakers at the ready will come running and throw me, Panasonic and you at the same time. So you still have to choose!
WOW !!!! Yes you sho ?? Give up hope everyone who enters here !! You will not bake the same bread in any cartoon arcade as in HP.

And then, you know the "golden" rule of the deviceaholic - "one device-one function". I'm talking about baking bread and yogurt.

I would argue with the first statement (among others, I had a cartoon, and Panas), and, being a notorious ... holik, with the second! A lot of HP and multicooker do an excellent job with the "yogurt" function. You, svane, above they wrote about the Italian ("La Cuchina Italiana"), she has baked goods, and yogurt, and frying (which, by the way, is done with great difficulty in Binaton 2170), and many other functions - more than Panasonic. The saucepan is much better. I evaluate objectively, I have all of them. But to refuse HP? And you came to THIS forum for advice?

I heard that Zohirushi are excellent rice cookers, Japanese. and our girls use rice cookers as multi-use, but I don’t know where this topic is ...

I also always add onions and carrots right after the broth boils. By the end of cooking, they completely give all their flavor notes into the broth - exactly what I need. I throw them away anyway.

And I also do this all my life and it turns out very wonderful.
Girls, I'm not a happy owner of a multi yet, but I really wanted to. And everyone understands that - "want" - worse than it hurts (and the forum is to blame for this). So, start the shopping spree. Today I saw only one model "Aurora". The price, of course, liked-560 UAH. Wouldn't it be from a series - good things never get cheap? Does anyone know anything about her. And I still want to ask (I'm still on the tundra in this matter) -A multicooker, a rice cooker is one machine or different? In general, the head is spinning.

The multicooker is an advanced rice cooker.
There is a simple rice cooker for two modes. There are already electronically controlled rice cookers (for several options for cooking different varieties of rice). There are rice cookers that are already multicooker - they have different programs designed for completely different dishes.

Nobody has Aurora yet.

Oh, but tell me, please, what it must do without fail, without which function is its acquisition meaningless? Maybe the question is moronic, but I, however, am a layman in this matter. I would like to cling to some central thread to understand that I am not in trouble. In short: "What would she-what?"

[Kamusik]

Kamusik, the slow cooker must necessarily cook, that is, cook.

The basic programs are cooking and stewing. Accordingly, strong and moderate heating. The main program for most pots is rice (buckwheat). The second most important program is extinguishing. Even with only two heating modes, a simple rice cooker will help you cook almost everything that can be done in the same Panasonic.

Look in the section Multicooker and rice cookers. Specificationswhat lists of programs the manufacturers offer.

Electronic Asian Pots can offer you several rice cooking programs (different varieties and for different dishes).
Pots for Europe and the CIS usually (but not always) have the programs "rice (buckwheat)", "steaming", "stewing", "baking".

People who are knowledgeable and versed, please tell the teapot. The multicooker is still in my dreams, so I don't understand anything about them. My daughter lives in the USA and now wants to buy herself a multicooker, we have found such options, can someone say something about them: Sanyo ECJ-M100S Micro-Computerized 10-Cup Rice Cooker
and further Aroma ARC-856 6-Cup Sensor Logic Rice Cooker & Food Steamer.
Or maybe look at some other options?

I have an American sanyo - very happy

aroma in a sense full of china, for sure a saucepan is worse.

in addition, this model of sanyo (as I looked at the corporate website) has all the programs necessary for our person (I just didn't find stewing there, as well as rice, soup, steam and pastries)

and aroma - mainly types of rice.

It is exactly slow cook that is in it. Even if there is no soup and pastry program (like mine), this does not mean that it cannot be cooked in it. In short, when you buy everything there is in the instructions.

oh, looked, and you dug up some strange model, apparently the price seduced you? Maybe she'd better buy one?
Sanyo ECJ-HC100S 10-Cup Micro-Computerized it should be better. In general, think about the volume of the saucepan, which you need more, they are all of different capacities.

[Gypsy and Rina72]

Gypsy and Rina72 Thank you for your advice. I would like to have stewing and pastries and soup and a double boiler there. I looked at this model that you recommend (Sanyo ECJ-HC100S 10-Cup Micro-Computerized). Personally, I liked everything there. They have a family of 2 people, but I think that a large saucepan is better than a small one

[Kobeika]

Kobeika, if the question is not to take for the lowest price (the models you have given are the cheapest with electronic control), then there is much more choice in America.

Cuisinart FRC-800 Rice Plus Multi-Cooker with Fuzzy Logic Technology (though I don't see the displacement, like 8 cups)
VersaChef VC-100 All-In-One 4-Liter Programmable Multi-Cooker (similar to Morphy Richards and our DEX)
Westinghouse Countertop Chef 10-Function Multi Cooker
Zojirushi NS-TGC18 10-Cup Micom Rice Cooker and Warmer, Stainless Steel
Panasonic SR-MS182 Fuzzy-Logic 10-Cup Rice Cooker, White

I found all this on Amazon in 10 minutes, and, moreover, I was looking for all about 10 cups (that is, for 1.8 liters of rice, about 4.5 liters of the full volume of a saucepan). You can search not only for these specific models, the same zoirush has a choice from up to $ 100 to $ 400-600, Panasonic actually has several models for that region (you can search through the official corporate website).

Well, I am currently cooking for 4 people for the second month in a two-liter rice cooker, I have no gas again .. yet.
They can buy a small rice cooker, and then when the family grows, buy a large one. Business then Look, sanyo has what good about rice cookers, they have good thick pans and a strong titanium coating. The covers are removable. Steam is everywhere. There are models with two saucepans and a tofu mold. Eggs are boiled in it like this:

[Kobeika]

Kobeika, let another Panasonic SR-MS182, SR-MGS102 look ...

here is a model with two saucepans

Online store TV-SHOP

The picture is quite reminiscent of a pressure cooker like a landlife and a unit (a slightly different handle configuration).
Well, the TV shop was already selling a unit multicooker and a clathronic rice cooker.

Googled. This company (whose name is on the box) is available only in the CIS (and maybe even only in Ukraine), although it is stated that it is Anglo-Austrian and has existed for 10 years. There is nothing on the Ukrainian site about saucepans. But there are bread makers, as many as three, of which one is a clone of the Rotex bread machine, the other is Orion.

But for the stated money, even in a TV shop, you can ask. what a beast (although, I suspect that its red price is 450-500 hryvnias on a market day).

But I’m probably if I hadn’t bought mine yet, I would have risked taking this one, it’s painfully the kind that suits me in the kitchen and I like the buttons, I have to choose the cooking time myself, but here it’s automatically ... and my price is almost 1400 UAH, and this 750 UAH.
