I don't know. I bought it for a slow cooker and for rice. It didn't do well for either one. Beans were hard and rice was always mushy. I gave it to Goodwill.

I only tried the rice cooker; I did not try any of the other components. I was so dissatisfied with it and with the confusing directions that I want to return the appliance but I don't know where to do so.

I bought 2 sets, 10 piece and 12 piece. The 10 piece shown here my daughter has. It doesn't have but 1 frying pan which is the 8 inch. The 12 piece I have had 2 frying pans with it but no steamer so I ordered me one. Steamer is a basket that goes inside one of the pots. Its behind the utensils. A Dutch Oven is the one right in the front. They are good for using to make roast with potatoes and carrots , stews, or casseroles in the oven. The lid fits down tightly and the food cooks slow and evenly in the oven. We both love our cookware. It cooks great and cleans up great. Couldn't ask for better cookware and the price is excellent.

It has 2 buttons cook & warm. Just push cook, a beep will sound when the cooking is finished & the cooker switches to warm. The directions recommend waiting 10 minutes before opening cooker.I make brown rice in it, I soak the rice for a few hours then wash it in a special bowl for washing rice that I found online when I ordered this rice cooker. The instruction book that comes with the rice cooker is very informative.

I've never tried to cook 7 eggs at once before. At most i've cooked 3 at a time. And i never pierce the eggs. An egg has cracked on me once but that's it. And we use the cooker every day.

I only have the skillet sized one, and have given three to relatives as presents. I love it too! It cooks about 3 times faster than my larger Fagor pressure cooker, and is absolutely perfect for cooking smaller quantities since it's just my husband and I. It's fine for entrees for four people, and soups and stews for six or so. Less water because it's smaller. I hope this helps.

It's tiny, not sure what you would cook. Also keep in mind there's NO adjustable heat setting.

There is an excellent pressure regulator on top with two (2) settings ... Most of the recipes seem to call for low or high for certain amounts of time....and it works nicely.....this cooker is excellent

Sorry, we cook six to eight cups at a time and set the cooker to run in automatic mode. We never timed how long it cooks since the cooker shuts off automatically.

I don't know the answer, but anything below 3 is just to keep food warm, will not cook it properly..I love mine, but wish they would have continued to make the multi cooker instead of just the slow cooker.....

You can cook up to four eggs at a time in the Big Boiley. I believe there is a smaller version that only cooks two.

I dont have any experience with this cooker as I use mine on my mini wsm but have heard a lot of people getting about 8 hours. Depends on your setup though.

I don't have that cooker, because of its inferior design and quality of construction, compared to other similar units. I returned it to the store where I bought in less than one day without even firing it up. There are other units out there at comparable cost that are much better designed and constructed. Regardless of what you use, I would recommend that you should plan on cooking several relatively small portions rather one huge batch all at once.

It is not as big as a standard wok. However, we routinely cook stir fries for 4 people, and have leftovers. Depends on how much you eat, though.

There is only one of me and I use my cooker at least once a week. Depending on what you prepare in the cooker, you can easily prepare a meal for at least 4-6 people or you can decrease amt to suit your needs. Will cook up to a 3 lb roast and 2-3 artichokes. Go to www.gopresto.com and find the the manual for this particular pressure cooker. It will give you all the info on using the cooker. The last half of the manual gives you info on what type of foods, amount, and time needed to cook.

I dont have the cooker right here with me I thought it was 7 and 12. As long as know how many minutes to cook, the cooker is great
