I wanted a cooker that has no plastic inside and little plastic altogether. Online, everything looked pretty good, unfortunately has failed to mention the Siligonfuge inside the glass container. To describe such a thing belongs in a mid-range device easy to do so. Inside it smells like vinegar, so like the smell of the silicone joints in bathrooms. I do not want to have in my water. Of course I sent the unit back. Maybe going to make the design better. Now I ordered an Italian steel maker. The interior has no plastic and no joints. From the glass you have to adopt in this respect precisely. I have certainly found none, and a compromise: "The main thing looks amazing ..." I'm not ready to make. The cheaper devices are all provided with plastic and / or silicone joints in the interior. Thus one should also cook without water.
