Know before you buy
Yes, the unit features a dedicated searing function that allows you to brown meats or sauté aromatics directly in the pot before switching to a pressure or slow cooking mode.
No, the components of this multicooker are not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing the removable stainless steel insert with warm, soapy water to maintain its finish.
This specific model does not include a digital timer or a programmable automatic shut-off feature. You will need to monitor your cooking time manually.
The removable insert is constructed from stainless steel. This provides a durable, non-reactive surface for cooking that is easy to clean without the need for non-stick coatings.
The 6-quart capacity is well-suited for a standard family of four to six people, depending on the type of dish you are preparing.
