Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

My beloved wife passed away 2 years ago from pancreatic cancer. I miss her immensely and also miss her delicious cooking. While I have cooked for myself on and off during my 74 years of life, my wife was a genius in the kitchen.. She could cook anything and turn it into a feast. After her passing, as I tried to again familiarize myself with MY WIFE'S KITCHEN, I realized she had about one of every type of food preparation utensil known to woman or man, and she knew how to use them all efficiently and effectively. As for me... I was totally lost as to what to use when, or how. I soon realized that I only needed a few simple kitchen appliances and utensils to start cooking for myself.. I started my search to find the most versatile, quick and simple cooking appliance that I could find. Something that I could easily learn to use and that could replace much of the stuff in the kitchen that I had no idea how to use. In early May 2018, after weeks of research and reading hundreds of articles and reviews I settled on purchasing the 6-quart Mealthy MultiPot 9-in-1 Programmable Pressure Cooker.. It sells on Amazon for a few pennies less than 100-bucks and included a nice assortment of accessories. Currently it is rated at 4.9-Stars with 488 reviews. I also bought the Mealthy glass lid for the pot - it is see-though, great for slow-cooker and non-pressure recipes, and less cumbersome to use and clean than the standard lid. Because it is so simple to use, easy to clean up, and makes great meals, the Mealthy MultiPot is now my primary means of preparing meals, steaming veggies, making soups & stews, making oatmeal, hard boiling eggs, you-name-it. I find that individual servings are easy using the "Pot In Pot" method suggested by ThisOldGal sites.. Incidentally, I also pretty much get most of my recipes from the ThisOldGal sites.. I am just really getting into using the MultiPot but I love it and I am confident that my skills will improve with time. Since getting my MultiPot, I have managed to remove about 3/4 of all the cooking appliances and utensils that were formerly in my kitchen and I now have more space for new clutter, and even food preparation.. Things are moving in the right direction and this MultiPot has definitely helped me in getting my life together. As a side note, regarding these types of cooking pots, it appears that most of the inside-the-pot accessories for most of the 6-quart pots will work in other brands of 6-quart pots. By example, I liked and bought the Hatrigo Instant Pot Accessories 6 qt Steamer Basket, rated at 4.8 Stars out of 1200+ reviews, and it fits my MultiPot perfectly. This basket cleans up easily and works great for steaming veggies - even beets, hard boiling eggs, etc.. While I have never used the Instant Pot, or any other similar brands, I am very happy with my 6-quart Mealthy MultiPot 9-in-1 Programmable Pressure Cooker.. I would buy it again and recommend it to others..
