Shabu Shabu Pot Sukiyaki Nabe 8.5in #821-21 Review

Listing page describes this as a Japanese nabe pot, but it is made in China. It is enameled, which the listing does not say. There is no guarantee that this product isn't going to poison you. When contacted, seller said that I would have to pay shipping and there will be a 20% "restocking fee"...what BS. These pots are not cheap, and there's no reason that they need to be made in China.

Dimension: 8-1/2in Dia x 3-3/8in H * Enameled Inner Surface for Easy Cleaning * Serving 2-3 people * 1 Wooden Lid & 1 Wooden Base are Included * * Nabemono (nabe cooking pot + mono things, stuffs, kinds) or simply called Nabe, is a term referring to all varieties of Japanese steamboat dishes, also known as one pot dishes. The pots are traditionally made of clay ( donabe) which can keep warm for a while after taken off from the fire or cast thick iron ( tetsunabe) which evenly distribute heat and preferably used for sukiyaki. The pots are usually placed in the center of dinning tables, shared by multiple persons. Most nabemono are stews and soups served during the colder seasons. In modern Japan, nabemono are kept hot at the dining table by portable stoves. The dish is frequently cooked at the table, and the diners can pick the cooked ingredients they want from the pot. It is either eaten with the broth or with a dip. Further ingredients can also be successively added to the pot. Eating together from a shared pot is considered as an important feature of nabemono; East Asian people believe that eating from one pot makes a closer relationship. The Japanese thus say, Nabe (w)o kakomu (sitting around the pot), implying that sharing nabemono will create warm relations between the diners who eat together from the shared pot.

Sanyo HPS-MC3 3-in-1 Nonstick Electric Multi-Cooker Review

I am cheap (Asian), and was not keen on plopping down $100 on this cooker. Totally worth it. I got it after I saw some little old ladies at 99 Ranch buying one!
Cooks hot pot like a CHAMP. I was using a single burner with a divided hot pot pot (lol) on top and I had to boil a separate pot the stove to keep up with demand (feeding 4 adults). No more! This thing is sooo convenient. Super easy to adjust the temperature and it heats up quickly.
Nice safety feature that it has a magnetic power cord, in case someone trips over it or you have kids. It stays on just fine.
Also works great as a steamer.
The finish is conducive to easy cleanup.
The grill part...well, I mean...it's essentially a one-sided George Foreman grill. Nothing too special there--but it is very easy to clean.
Buy it! You know if the old Chinese ladies at 99 Ranch were buying, it HAS to be good.
**Update**
Owned it now for almost a year. Still going strong, still highly recommended. It even saved me through a stove issue (2 weeks for the new part to arrive). There are a lot of things you can make with this cooker, I have to say.
