This is my third multi cooker in 10 years. I had basic Fagor model for the first 7 years. After it broke I bought InstaPot and hated it for a few years and almost stopped cooking in it. My friend recommended trying Cuckoo. I absolutely love it! The meat stew is amazing in 50 minutes, apple and cherry case are moist and fluffy, rice is top-notch (even my picky child started eating rice cooked at home), fabulous shrimps and I also tried cooking lobster tails. Amazing machine, highly recommend. It also comes with recipes that is very helpful and gives an idea of time to use and how to adjust family’s old-favorites.
