We love multicookers because you can use them in various ways to cook diverse dishes. A step up from a crockpot, multicookers land in the best kitchen gadgets because they can usually do all of the following, all in one appliance.
Some multicookers will even let you choose the food you want to cook. Tap the food label, and the device handles the rest.
You can cook rice, bake a cheesecake, create a stir fry, slow cook soup, make mac n' cheese, you name it. For novice cooks or home chefs who want to be more efficient, add this to your list of kitchen appliance ingredients.

We like the reversible grill/griddle because it's incredibly versatile. You can make pancakes on the griddle side or flip it over to get char marks on portobello mushrooms, burgers or steaks.
Many are oven-safe, too. They're also easily portable if you want to take yours on the go to a campsite.

Bonus tip: You can use an air fryer to reheat leftovers that had a crispy texture. Instead of microwaving leftover fries that will turn mushy, pop them in the air fryer for a good-as-fresh dish.
