My wife, as a passionate amateur cook was certainly enthusiastic immediately.
When unpacking the Home Cooker I immediately had a good quality feel.
All Components Setting are well made and make a high quality and durable impression.
I have to say that Philips brings very innovative products lately in good quality on the market.
So it could not wait to cook something with the unit my wife.
We were a little daring and wanted a stew cook (which indeed is not one of the recommended dishes).
First fry the onions, which works great with the automatic stirrer (nothing gets burnt), then the goulash (of course not too large pieces) and "bruzzeln" at a constant temperature.
The automatic stirrer has the pieces durchmengt sedate but inexorably.
The pot has a surprisingly large capacity incidentally.
What can I say; the result was great right in the 1st attempt.
Of course, we frequently checked if everything works out - that has it.
The Cutting Tower is a practical accessory and enhances the cooking system also visually.
Practically, for example, at a meat sauce for lasagna if you promoted the fresh grated carrots directly into the pot.
All the ways I do not want to enumerate which can be read elsewhere.
Conclusion:
Of course, the Philips HR1050 is Home Cooker no universal genius but he simplifies things for certain dishes considerably.
The purchase price is not insignificant but the Home Cooker is already something extraordinary and certainly appeals to a specific audience.
For us, in any case a great device with the cooking fun.
