REDMOND RMC-P350

Advantages: The model is very successful, nice design, the optimal number of buttons. One of the big advantages is the delay of the start by a certain time, it is not necessary to calculate the timer time, as in the old models. A good bowl, to which nothing burns, a preliminary shutdown of support for heat, easy to clean, no container for condensate, which needs to be monitored, a removable lid, does an excellent job even with frozen meat, and, most importantly, delicious food)

Disadvantages: Heavy cover, in my opinion. The cartoon stands under the hood on the stove, because Due to the fact that it is necessary to let the steam down I can not put it on the countertop - soak hinged kitchen cabinets. In order not to be frightened by the jet of steam, I put a rag on the valve before opening)

Comment: I chose a slow cooker for a long time, after my old one had departed to a different world and had not lost, after buying, she had never used the stove before) the previous cartoon was used mainly for dairy porridges, and in this I cook absolutely everything: baking pilaf.

UPD! With longer operation, I noticed one significant negative for me - the silicone ring absorbs the smells of the previous dishes and generously presents them with new ones. Compote with the aroma of onions or cheesecake with a hint of meat - not the most pleasant desserts. They say that the problem of the silicone ring is quite common, and not only in Redmond, someone more, someone less. If you wash the silicone ring in a timely manner, then absorption is reduced to a minimum (they say). But I can't do it, because sometimes I put soups for the night. It is not possible to completely remove odors with an ordinary detergent, although over time the fragrance has become not so sharp, but the sediment, as they say, has remained. Baking and milk cereals suffer the most. In theory, it would be necessary to buy a spare ring, but it must go somewhere for him. In short, for those who faced the same problem - my LIFHAKI:
1. Milk porridge without a ring, see below
2. If you are afraid that the new dish smells of old - you can wrap the silicone ring with a single layer of baking paper.
3. Vigorous seasoning is better to put after cooking, when the lid is no longer necessary to cover.
4. Who is afraid of splashing everything around - while gently lowering the valve, hold a plate or tray over it, you can put a rag on the valve itself.

UPD2! By the crock-pot, except for the smell of the ring, there are still no complaints. experiments:
1. Porridge is perfectly prepared without a ring, but the cooking time needs to be done more than the default +10 minutes approximately, especially for rice porridge.
2. Baked a charlotte without a ring. You need to pull out the ring and close the valve. Everything turned out) so that the top of the charlotte was ruddy, after the main part. I turn it over and put it on the baking program for 10 minutes.

Advantages: it does not stick, porridges and vegetables are boiled soft (we do not cook meat), soups are cooked quickly, and the flavor is preserved, it does not boil away, it does not run off to the stove - this is the most important thing for me! it is well washed, it is convenient that the cover is removed completely.

Disadvantages: too inconvenient to use pressure cooker modes.The “soup” mode in the pressure cooker version does not justify itself, since with a large volume of liquid, the pressure is sufficiently long enough, and as a result, the soup is comparable to cooking in the multicooker mode. but at the same time it is not possible to lay vegetables in portions from it, since for this purpose it would be necessary to relieve / gain pressure again each time.
It is also inconvenient to cook pasta, dumplings, eggs in a multicooker - for a very long time. I understand that this is not necessary, but there was a moment when there was no stove at home, and they used a multivark for everything.
A book with recipes urgently requires moderation!) in particular, recipes for milk porridge and mashed potatoes.

Comment: in principle, pleased with the device. I chose it as a birthday present and did not regret it at all. food for the most part turns out to be much tastier than on the stove. I wrote quite a lot about the minuses, but all the other points of using the slow cooker are only positive. about them you will not tell in detail. but you should definitely buy the device and try it yourself.

Advantages: The speed and again the speed during cooking, cooks both under pressure and without pressure, the bowl is thick, of normal volume

Disadvantages: Typing Mistakes

Comment: When buying embarrassed price, about all the same I bought and do not regret. Everything is prepared at times faster, which is important when there is no free minute. The descent of the steam was frightening at first, but now it got it. Cooked in her and the "old" chicken and jellied meat. Great! Of course, for the jelly on the feast, the bowl is small, it will be necessary in several approaches. And so it is enough. I tried a biscuit, and he succeeded!

Advantages: Representative appearance, reasonably selected functions, the volume of the bowl is serious, even peas and barley are prepared very quickly

Disadvantages: for a long time could not deal with the descent of steam

Comment: Among the pressure cookers, I liked this one most of all, she looks pleasant, the bowl is not small and there are necessary programs for every day. Pearl barley and peas adored by her husband are boiled out quickly, this is impossible on the stove in less than 2 hours. Well, you can wash it in a flash simply.

Advantages: record cooking times, excellent bowl volume, accurate assembly

Disadvantages: On the complete set of stinging, steam must be very carefully

Comment: Before this I had a cartoon that cooked ordinary soup for two hours. Therefore, the pressure cooker stunned me with its speeds. Everything turns out fast and tasty. The volume of the bowl allows you to feed the entire family and guests. The first time, the ferry didn’t get too hot, now I’m used to it.

Advantages: Very quickly cooks meat, and indeed everything is 4 -5 times faster.

Disadvantages: It is not clear how much it will heat up and build up pressure, but this is probably the case with all multicookers. Silicone sealing ring really absorbs odors. They also write that it is possible to regulate pressure, but for those programs that are prepared under pressure, it is not possible to remove it completely. The delayed start program is lying a little in time.

Comment: I have been using it for 4 months. Excellent cooking. Baking, soups, pilaf, bread, milk porridges, chops. If you still follow the recipes by gram in the attached book - it turns out very tasty! True, there are some typos in the book.
The delayed start program is a little lying in time. You set to what time you need to cook - and she will cook 15 minutes earlier, well, this is already the case - nagging.

Advantages: The bowl with a ceramic coating - in my opinion, the best advantage

Disadvantages: The meter is winding kW like crazy ...

Comment: In principle, nothing superfluous, all by hand. Not found a lot of condensate, although it can be easily removed from the surface.I like that it can be almost completely disassembled, washed and cleaned. And then collect everything back and it will work, even with my "crooked" hands))

Advantages: 1. After the old one - M70 (which broke) - cooking speed, fast, very fast ...... dishes are cooked for 10-20 minutes, only baking is longer.
2. The reliability of the design (again comparing with the M70, there are no wires in the lid, and the opening mechanism for opening the lid itself).
3. At night in the kitchen there were excellent hours (very pleased).
4. You can say that a stylish appearance, (but usually I do not care, the multicooker was chosen according to the functionality).

Disadvantages: - a recipe book, once again playing sapper, whether the recipe is correct or not, as a result we hammer on the book and climb into the Internet.

Comment: Yes, everyone is happy, we cook mostly in a slow cooker, and we warm it in the microwave, the usual cooker is more for decoration.

ps in some recipes it is necessary to open the valve, but it is not written.

Advantages: A beautiful, convenient, intuitive menu, fully removable lid, no complicated fixings as in the old pressure cookers, everything is in one, covered with a lid, turned into a half-turn and cooked, silent, compact, safe, 2 times quick to prepare, tasty.

Disadvantages: not

Comment: In use, according to the recipe from the “Recipe book” attached to the slow cooker, cooked “Beef stew”, the preparation of the products took me 15 minutes, started in the pressure cooker mode and marked with a stopwatch from the start, found out the following: cooking in Multivarki consists of three steps.
1. bring the device to the operating mode (water boils, pressure is created) 16 min. "Beef Goulash"
2. start of the program (actually the cooking process itself is recommended by the recipe) 10 minutes. "Beef Goulash"
3. upon completion of the program, before opening the multicooker lid, you must wait 2-3 minutes, to calm the aggressive environment in the multicooker - temperature decrease, I waited 10 minutes, then the probability of a quick blockage of pressure relief valves decreases.
In general, I was positively impressed that I got tasty and fast, the meat was from coarse hard fibers, it turned out not tender, but soft. I thought that in 10 minutes, it would be hard (rubber). I am pleased

Advantages: Everything))

Disadvantages: Oooh .... there are a lot of them:
1. Itself does not cut products))
2. The product itself does not throw in the bowl
3. The program itself does not expose
4. And O God! She does not even lay out the cooked dishes;)

But seriously, as long as the flaws are not found)) I hope and never will)

Comment: We bought this device a little more than 2 weeks ago)) and are very pleased. So far everything that has been done has turned out very tasty. Kashi, goulash, frying and even jam) I liked it very much that in the evening you can put everything in the bowl, set the time and have a freshly made porridge for breakfast. Just open the lid, add oil and arrange it into plates. Beauty))) Programs are enough - do not subtract, not add. Well, isn’t it a pity - there is no function of pasta, but in the end we will cook pasta and dumplings on the stove)) And the bowl could still be bigger ... at least per liter. But for us it is not critical.
