Steamer Skillet by VitaChef Electric Multi Cooker/Steamer

Great product! Very well constructed of heavy-duty parts and built to last for a long time. Cooking options are easy and very flexible. Have really enjoyed for smoking chicken and steaming large amounts of shrimp - really beats attempting to do the same on a stove. Would strongly recommend and a good choice for those heading off to college.

The product works.However,The accessories, from previous reviews INCLUDING MINE, tend to arrive smudged.Do better!

Box and pan had smelled like wet cardboard. The handle and power supply had black paint-like stains. I purchased because of the reviews but not satisfied with the conditions of the item. Food had a chemical taste. Pan ended in the garbage. A waste of money!

I don't even turn on my stove any more, I can use this Cooker/Steamer for everything! Love it!

Lo amo, me hace la vida mucho más fácil

I love the idea of this unit, and I am probably going to purchase it.But, I have been looking for a pan that would allow me to cook over easy eggs, in an oven-style pan.I did the calculations, and it appears as if the burger / patty makers in this unit are about 4 inches in diameter.That would be absolutely perfect, for over-easy eggs, intended for egg sandwiches.I would like to suggest that you make a slim egg-pan to this same exact unit, where you could cook 5 eggs, in this same exact "X" pattern.To prepare the eggs without needing to flip them, it requires a lid, which this unit has.The slim egg-pan would sit on top of the main pan, just like the current add-on units.For my purposes, you would not want the eggs in the lower pan, over the direct heat.I have actually prepared eggs like this in my oven at home, but there are two issues with this:1) I need to heat the entire oven, to prepare a few baked eggs.2) The only pans I've found so far, only have a diameter of 2 - 2.5 inches. This is sufficient for muffins, and much smaller buns, but the diameter is not large enough for sandwiches on regular bread.Just a suggestion.

I bought the Vitachef a few weeks ago. I chose Pizza Rolls as my first experiment, just to get the ball rolling. I have to tell you, they were amazing! Never tasted that good in an oven. I quickly graduated to better fare. Rice and broccoli, steamed chicken and vegetables, steak. I made steamed potatoes three days in a row. I steam them and mash them up with butter and milk. I make a breakfast sandwich and crack the egg directly over the bread and let it cook with the lid on. It makes a sunny-side up egg sandwich! If you know me, that is a dream come true. I got the Vitachef because I was sick of washing my girlfriend's pots and pans, but it ended up making me a curious chef. I just grab stuff and see what I can come up with . The Vitachef is a great investment. It has made life in the kitchen a little more bearable.

The VitaChef makes cooking easy, fun, and nearly impossible to mess up, even for a less than average cook like me! AND it is super easy to clean!!! You can do just about everything in the VitaChef, bake, steam, fry and more. It's big enough to cook a whole chicken, but small enough to fit on your counter without taking up tons of space. The easy to follow recipes, temperature guides, and step by step videos on the VitaChef website make cooking nearly fool-proof! My twelve year old son, recently showed an interest in cooking and the VitaChef has turned that interest into a possible career goal!! Using the VitaChef in the past week, he's made turkey burgers, steamed corn, chicken alfredo, and steamed spinach. All of which were delicious!
