Tefal Cook4Me (page 2 of 10)

After looking at the reviews in Product review, we bought the Cook4Me from JB Hi-Fi. Where as this cooker does not produce the best taste, it works very well for people like me who do not love to cook but sometimes need to cook as a back up. Also, cleaning is very easy. I have not tried out of set menu yet but will soon try that.

Right from the start I found the Cook4Me easy to use. I use it for cooking rice, steaming vegetables and making curries, stews and vegetarian casseroles. I don't use the onboard recipes that much except for the timing steamed veges, rice etc. I usually make up my own ingredients, brown onions etc. then add vegetables and use the Manual "Quick cook" which is 10 minutes and the mean is ready. The recipes supplied was a good start for me, but once you become more confident with this wonderful machine you can adapt many pressure cooker recipes. I actually have two in case one stops working as I couldn't live without it. Saves on power too no having a slow cooker on for 8 hours.

It is super easy to use with clear instructions. Even hubby can use it.
There are so much variety of options that this machine have helped me with. From pasta, to lamb shank to plain rice cooking. The possible is endless at the moment. My favourite is the risotto. It cooks PERFECT risotto.

The cleaning is simple but I just dont know how to remove the very top bit to clean (not in book) so i am not sure how much grime is under there. Fingerscrossed.

I think this product is excellent,. But they do need to look into a decent recipe book also, for cook4 me + some times you want to sit back and look at all the recipe be fore you start and what’s in them, and Tefal customer service centres not much help,

Great for time poor people. Got this after having a baby when we simply didn't have time to cook. Very easy to use and having the ingredients and recipes stored is a bonus. found it very easy to clean also. One thing though I found even though it says 10 minutes for recipe it didn't include the pre heat time and time to release pressure which adds another 15 min

I bought my TC4ME in June 2017 then figured how beneficial this would be for Mum. It helps Mum with her concerns of extra power consumption.
The ease of use is fabulous. I am able to do Lamb shanks when I get home from a long day. Awesome addition to my kitchen.

The best pressure cooker, rice cooker, roaster, and cooking pot I have ever used. For a family of 10. Large chicken roast in just 35 minutes with veggies. Rice in just 9 minutes. It even steams veggies.

Definitely recommend it.

Easy to wash and take a part and re assemble.

I'm loving my cook4me pressure cooker, I now use it mainly in manual mode as I got to learn how much time things need to be cooked the way I want. I make curries and ratatouille and bolognese in no time, easy to clean, easy to use and the best of al: safe, no need to get anywhere near the steam valve, it does everything automatically, I wouldn't not change it and I recommend it, I even cook rice in it so goodbye to the rice cooker

Features good.
Could live without.
BUT for most it saves time.
Steak & Kidney with dumplings. Opened lid twice.
Yet to try roast. That will be the TEST.
Husband's ability tested. We had an Irish Stew and lived to have Beef Bourginoun.
Definitely staying in my kitchen. Planning to stretch husband's culinary ability.

Very easy to use, but not oftern because it’s quite big for small family. Good for slow cook recipe like steam corn or cooking bean. The recipe on the screen is difficult to follow but it has brown onion which is quite good to enrich flavor. Easy to clean, but heavy.

It is easy to use and perfect in its multi function and recipes, you can cook was watching it and just give the program you want then leave it alone, it is good also for who like healthy food and giving a perfect cooking with fabulous taste . I encourage people to buy it.

I rented the TEFAL cook 4 me for a period of 12 months had to return the product as it was stating error code 08 contact after sales service. I returned the product to the rental company to which they did replace 1 month after getting a new one same thing again. I am not at all satisfied with this TEFAL need to get a product that works all the time.

This is a terrific kitchen gadget, albeit a bit on a large side, but it’s very functional. It is well used in our home and it generally saves time and is easier to clean than cleaning the oven, stove or the range hood. The inbuilt recipes are quite good, and I find I can adapt some of them to suit the vegetarians & vegans in the house. Wish there was an App where you could obtain more recipes though....that would be fantastic! Cooking rice & other grains couldn’t be easier with this machine and it does the speediest risottos ever! The only minor issue I’ve had is that occasionally the TC4M seems to take quite awhile to preheat, but 90% of the time it operates perfectly fine. I would definitely recommend the TC4M.
