COOKS ALMOST EVERYTHING PERFECT
Got one of these for Christmas thinking it was just another gadget to stuff away in the back of the cabinet. Not so. I use it 2 or 3 times a week. I've fried fish, shrimp, fries, green tomatoes and chicken with excellent results but I mainly use it for slow cooking. Soups, stews, meatballs, fajitas, even stir fry dishes. To me what it cooks best is pasta. It takes a while for the water to come to a boil but once it does it stays at a boil and you never have to adjust the temperature like on a stove. Plus it is 110v instead of 220v. I even made a meatloaf in it. It also fits in the fridge easily as well as the dishwasher.
Very practical and efficient
I use this multi kettle cooker mostly as a deep fryer. Although it doesn't have designer appeal it really does the job in the kitchen.
Presto Kettle
Have a "Dazy" kettle with a crock insert, used for twenty years to deep fry and slow cook. This is almost the same thing, the crock fits it. I lost the lid for the Dazy, so recently purchased this 06000 for a counter kettle, cooking raw shrimp, soup, chili, just about anything you would cook on a stove top. Walmart had it @ $19.xx. Buy one, no regrets!! The travel thing is not something I would use. If you need to transport a hot meal, just put it in a small cooler.
Great little kitchen gadget
I love this pot. Haven't used it for frying anything yet, but based on my experience with frying stuff, it would serve the purpose. Love the fact that I can control the temperature. I made a perfect roux for my gumbo in it. Very sturdy and easy to clean while not too expensive. Highly recommend it.
works great as a stone heater for hot stone massage!
For about a dozen large stones, this cooker is really nice to heat stones for a hot stone massage treatment. It
s got a good temperature gauge, heats up really fast, and doesn't take up too much space in a small office.
