Cuisinart 3-In-1 6-Quart Multi-Cooker, Silver

All the options were the decision maker to purchase this slow cooker. The insert is incredibly non-stick, the sauté option works very well and the timer feature is also a plus. However, I have a large family and I wish it larger. I cannot make the amount of soup or stew I would usually make. This is a disappointment.

This slow cooker does everything in one pot, from steaming to sautéing, to slow cooking! ♥️🇨🇦

I was kind of worry about spending so much on a cooking appliance. I read as much as I could find about it, but most folks bought the less expensive kind so there wasn’t much reviews to go on. I took a leap of faith for those who took the time to put in their perspective and took the plunge.

I have had this over a week and already cooked like 4 meals on it. LOVE, LOVE the BROWNING feature. Just that part alone was well worth it. It was easy to heat up, and brown like its suppose to. Afterward, I put whatever vegetables goes in and brown that too. Next it was as simple as returning the meat back in to cook on SLOWCOOK mode.

The next thing that I alo LOVE is the pot itself. It’s nonstick (yes, you have to be a little more gentle and careful when putting any kind of tools into the pot so as not to scratch the coating), but the ease of cleaning is easy, and the WEIGHT of the pot is soo light (which is extremely helpful as I am currently having problem with some hand pain issue). The only negatives is the learning curve involved and that is on me. I’m use to ceramic crockpot type slow cooker’s higher heat setting, so on the first batch it was not enough time. The second batch, too watery. The third batch too over cook, the 4th batch receipe issue. I’m sure I’ll keep on trying, but for all my faults, it still did what it’s suppose to (plus the food was quite good) only issue is operator inexperience in this type if cooking.

By the way, I thought the 6qt would be too big for 2 people, but I like to put extra veggies so the size actually is perfect. The warming feature was awesome — on the regular crockpots the warm setting was sometimes still to high, but on this the food stay at an edible temperature. Now there is some things to keep in mind, it does take time to heat to desire temperature, and definitely don’t open the lid too often or else the temperature does not remain constant. You’ll have to learn (for newbes like me) to adjust time and temperature when cooking. Just because the receipe said to cook for this amount of time may not work because this Cuisinart can also cook by temperature setting also. I’m very please to get this, and just hope that it will at least last a couple of years. I think it’s funny when I read people’s reviews about how after 3 years or so their pot dies etc. If this slow cooker will last almost that long from being used it was well worth it in this electronic age.

Wonderful product. Do everything in one pot, sauté, brown, steam, slow cook. Had another product. No comparison.
What is bothersome is the price point to order from the US.

We purchased one of these in 2015 and it still works great. Just purchased a second one this year as we sometimes need two for big family gatherings. Cuisinart continues to make a solid product that does the job (temp controls, and timers are all accurate). I would like to see an option to order a replacement cooking pot for our original. It’s still in good shape after hundreds of meals served, but the nonstick has a few scratches due to standard use over the years. I’ll just say you can’t go wrong with the MSC-600. It’s outlasted our other slow cookers.
