Nice Multicooker
My last slow cooker was an All-Clad, when it failed I researched new units to see if there was a better slow cooker. I settled on the Cuisinart MC-400, multi cooker. It not only slow cooks but you can brown, sauté, steam and boil… you can cook anything you want in this baby! Brown before slow cooking all in the same pan so there is no extra pan to wash. The cooking insert is a breeze to clean. It’s light weight. Now that I’m older I appreciate that!! The only thing that’s missing is a programmable function to switch automatically while slow cooking from high to low. The slow cooker does switch to warm automatically after cook time ends.

Excellent slow cooker
I like to watch FB reels 'Drew Eats' & this is a slow cooker he uses so I bought one. Love that you can saute in it, steamed corn on cob the other day-delish, cooked up a bunch of chicken hind quarters on high ( to shredded up) & worked great. In the hot summer it is the way to go to not have to heat up the oven or boil h2o & add steam to your home. made chicken thighs w/ lemon & added asparagus last 30 min, tender crisp asparagus & a lovely meal is done in a few hours. I can't wait to try our more recipes in this! Good bye my old black & deserve basic crockpot

Horrible non stick
The coating in the pot started to lift after one use
From Cuisinart team
Thank you for your feedback—we’re sorry to hear about the coating on your Cook Central® Multicooker pot and understand your concern, especially after minimal use. For best results, we recommend avoiding metal utensils, using non-abrasive cleaning tools, and ensuring the unit is cleaned only after it has fully cooled, as these steps help protect the coating. For further assistance and to review available support options, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket #8900944252. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, as your feedback helps us improve future models.

Love it, but can’t use it!
I have consistently had an issue with the START/STOP button and now, it will not turn the multicooker on! I have had this for a few years, but the issue has been ongoing from not long after I purchased the cooker. I LOVE it for many reasons, but am disappointed with my dilemma. ( Model/MSC-8000). Is there an option to send the unit in for repair?

Slow Cooker
I have a multifunctional cooker. serial # 50515. I had replaced the insert because of flaking and chipping through warranty. I only use plastic utensils . The warranty ended and I paid for another replacement because it is flaking . I use no abrasive cleaning . I started using a liner because concerned about the chipping and flaking. The cooker itself has been great, and dependable and easy to use.
From Cuisinart team
Thank you for sharing your experience and for your continued use of the cooker. We’re sorry to hear the insert has begun flaking again despite careful use and cleaning. Using plastic utensils and non-abrasive cleaning, as you described, is recommended, and a liner can help reduce wear over time. If you would like to discuss replacement options or care tips, please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-800-726-0190 so we can assist you.

Great slow cooker
I have had this cooker for several years. I’m having trouble with the teflon flaking. I have only used rubber spatulas and wooden spoons. Also the front control panel has cracked. This is the second time this has happened. Williams and Sonoma replaced the first one and now the second one has done the same. I’m still using it because I really like it. I really like I can brown the meat then slow cook. Will not let me attach photos.
From Cuisinart team
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your continued loyalty to this cooker—we’re glad to hear you enjoy the browning and slow cooking features. We’re sorry to learn about the nonstick coating flaking and the control panel cracking, and our team would appreciate the opportunity to review this further, especially since you’ve experienced it more than once. If possible, please stop using the unit if the coating continues to deteriorate and contact us so we can help evaluate the situation and discuss available options. Please reach out to our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8900552282 for assistance.

Everything I need and MORE!
Replaced an old school ceramic crockpot with this new Cuisinart 3 in 1 pot...what a gamec changer! Now I can sear meat right in the pot , add all the other ingredients and set time and temp exactly! No more guess work, no more overcooked veggies. Clean the pot is a breeze and the unit as a whole is beautiful

Highly Recommend!
Best Slow Cooker ever! I love the sauté feature so I don’t have to dirty skillet in addition to the cooker and being able to set the exact number of hours or the number of degrees to cook is extremely helpful

Way better than Crockpot - so much less cleaning
This multi cooker far surpasses our old crockpot. The steaming function is a real winner.

One Pot is all You Need
This crock pot is so cool. It browns, steams and slow cooks. Really one pot that does it all. It is also super easy to clean.

Replacement ceramic insert
I’ve had this for several years. Unfortunately it is peeling and chipping. Will you recommend a ceramic replacement insert with exact dimensions for this model.

The Mother of All Crockpots!
I have already recommended this piece to a friend who promptly bought it. We are both trying new recipes and love the browning feature. Today I have corned beef and cabbage cooking - why wait until March?!!!

Horrible cooking Pot
The Teflon in the cooking pot continues to peel off, this is the second time this has happened. We only use soft spatulas and never anything sharp that can scrape the bottom, and we’ve used covers and yet the bottom still flakes off. This is a major product failure. You need to offer a ceramic cooking pot. Unfortunately I’m going to trash this unit.
From Cuisinart team
We’re very sorry to hear about the peeling cooking pot, especially since you’ve taken proper care and experienced this more than once. This unit is covered by a 3-year limited warranty, and our Consumer Service team would be happy to review replacement options with you. We encourage you to call us directly at 1-800-726-0190 so we can assist. Your feedback regarding a ceramic cooking pot will also be shared with our product team.
