Am really pleased with my purchase of this item. I use it most days - make porridge in the morning, cook grains like quinoa and millet to make salads for my packed lunch, steam veggies and the occasional ready meal in the steamer basket and have made some really lovely winter stews on the slow cook function. I've never managed to cook quinoa in a pan, but the rice cooker does it to perfection. Am really looking forward to experimenting further with it, and will try to make polenta using the porridge function tomorrow. if it was a bit cheaper, I'd buy another one (so that I can cook my stew and my grains/veggies at the same time). The downsides are small, but the non-stick surface of the pot is VERY delicate, mine has a scratch already and ... Read More:

I bought one of these a while ago. In less than a year the teflon wore off, leaving just bare aluminium. Everything stuck to it and it became impossible to clean. So I threw it away. If you're buying a grill buy a heavy duty non-Teflon one.

I bought this set as a real starter set. Never having scrapbooked before I was starting from scratch, and this set definitely had everything needed to get me going. A good selection of papers, glue, photo mounts...even scissors that were good quality themselves. The book itself is a large neutral brown, which is stylish and sturdy.
I tend to shop around and this was one of the least expensive sets that I could find - but it is not at all cheap in quality. I don't think the photo really shows the set off for the excellent value, impressive standard of product that it is.
It would be perfect for anyone starting scrapbooking, for a gift or even for a child to start collecting mementos and memories.

The Grill and Griddle worked fine for a few minutes, then the griddle seemed to loose heat.Found out afterwards it just wouldn't turn on. The grill worked fine...Shame, but returning it now to get a more reliable make.

I was very interested to read Mrs Howard's review. I was so excited to receive this steamer as a Christmas gift - it steamed the vegetables beautifully.
Unfortunately, after two or three uses the timer adjust buttons started to be a bit unreliable - sometimes they would work, sometimes they wouldn't.
Another couple of uses later, the thing stops steaming completely and won't work at all. Very frustrating when you haven't noticed until your meat is ready and then you realise you have completely raw vegetables to go with your meal!
DON'T BUY THIS! I will be getting a more simple, clock ticking style steamer if I can exchange this one...... what a pain!
