⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unboxing and Product Review - KYOWA MULTI-COOKER KW3800.

 

The Philippine Government pronounced - that another Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) will be taking place effective August 6 to 20, 2021. This is already the third hard-lockdown forced by the Government since 2020 when the Covid19 Pandemic started to hit the country. As part of my preparation, I stocked groceries inside my unit and planning that I will be cooking my own food for the rest of the said lockdown. This has been my practice ever since the Pandemic – preparing my own food every meal. 

Unfortunately, the Dowell Induction Cooker that I’ve been using for almost one year had a problem. I brought it to the nearest appliance repair shop, and almost four weeks passed – still they haven’t fixed it yet. In addition, my small multi-cooker is no longer in my possession as I decluttered my condo unit and I sent it to the province so they can use it. I decided to buy a new Induction Cooker online but sadly I got a defective item and I have to return it to the seller. 

Since I ended up with nothing left to use in cooking my food, I purchased a multi-cooker.

Honest Review

First Impression: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Aesthetically, It has glossy-finished and I loved the combination of colors black and red which reminds me of the ILO Multi-cooker from O-shopping when they were still in operation. Actually, the color of the said Kyowa Multi-Cooker matched on my Ilo Air-fryer.

Watch the ILO Multi-cooker infomercial below, they’re totally similar.

It is also a space-saver which is perfect if you’re living in a small apartment or condominium unit.  

Price ⭐⭐⭐⭐

When it comes to the price which is amounting to Php3, 360, I must admit that it is quite pricey for me as someone who works in a 9-5 job. But the price is something we might forget in the latter part of the product will last longer as expected. As of the time being, I can’t say that the product is durable because it takes years for you to say that the product is really worth the price when you’ve used it for a long span of time. Honestly, buying this appliance on Php3, 360 amount is undeniably a gamble but when I actually added this item to the cart, I’ve read several positive reviews which makes me feel confident to check this out and pay. I’ll just hope for the best.

Power Consumption.⭐⭐⭐⭐

Honestly, this is the area that I cannot provide any feedback on because I am not monitoring my electricity at all since I am using Pre-paid Mercalco Kuryente Load, I only get every morning a notification on how much I have consumed for the past 24 hours. I have numerous appliances operating 24 hours like Air-condition, refrigerator, modem, Himalayan lamp, and others- that I ignored monitoring the amount since the electric price in Manila is stressful to keep an eye on. But I must say, nothing changes from my day-to-day consumption so far. 

Final Thought. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

In the span of one week, I’ve been cooking few dishes e.g. Pork Adobo sa Pula, Pork Sinigang, and Pork Red Curry. The product cooks fast and it is reliable. It delivers well as what I am expecting. I only find it hassle when washing it because due to its pot’s size, it doesn’t fit on my tiny sink. But overall, I love the said product and I hope this will last longer.
