Negative Positive
Title: Gimmicky
Review: The Turbo Cooker doesn't do anything that a large covered frying pan or dutch couldn't do. True, the stacking steam rack can be handy on occasion, but the ability to cook multiple foods in one pan is a bit of a gimmick. I'm perfectly happy to dirty a separate cake pan rather than have my cake "steam baked" (and flavored) by the vapors of my entree.If you don't already have any large cooking pans, the Turbo Cooker may be an inexpensive multi-use item. (Could be great for someone living on their own for the first time.) But if you already have a full set of cookware, there's really no reason to buy it. It's HUGE and takes up a ton of space in your cabinet.The Turbo Cooker seems to be cheaply made, but I can't vouch for how it holds up over time since I returned it within a month of receiving it as a gift.
