— Bowl with handles.
The presence of handles on the bowl makes the multicooker more practical and convenient to use, providing a more convenient and reliable grip on the container. Handles for large-volume bowls are especially relevant. Most often, the working surface of the handles has a heat-resistant coating that quickly dissipates heat; other models can be equipped with bakelite or Teflon-coated handles — thanks to this, the bowl can be freely removed, even if it is still hot.
— Grill. A special
grill that is installed in the multicooker bowl, and products for grilling are placed on it. In this mode it is possible to cook meat, fish and vegetables with an appetizing crispy crust. The cooking temperature is usually around 220 – 240 °C.
— Steamer stand.
Multicooker bowl stand with characteristic perforations for steaming healthy food. As a rule, it is equipped with small legs and is placed above some water at the bottom of the multicooker bowl. Boiling water turns into steam, and passing through the holes in the stand this steam cooks the food. Steaming is considered one of the most gentle cooking modes and is widely used in dietary nutrition, including children's nutrition.
— Steamer basket.
The steamer basket is a hanging container with a perforated bottom, installed in the upper part of the multicooker bowl. Wat
...er is poured directly into the bowl, which boils and turns into steam. This steam is forced through the holes in the container and cooks healthy food.
— Deep-frying basket. The deep-frying basket typically features a metal mesh structure, primarily employed for frying foods in a deep layer of heated oil or fat. It proves useful for preparing items like French fries, battered foods (vegetables, mushrooms, fish, etc.), chips, and similar dishes. Many deep-frying baskets come equipped with handles or a lifting mechanism for easy immersion and removal of food from the oil.
— Frying pan. Availability of own frying pan included in the delivery of the device. Multicookers with a frying pan, as a rule, have a movable heater that can be raised and the frying pan placed on it, and at the end of cooking, lowered to the standard position.
— Yogurt jars. The delivery set includes special jars for making yogurt (for more details, see “Programmes”). For a number of reasons, it is considered optimal for this product to use several small jars instead of one large container.The type of non-stick coating used in the working container of the multicooker.

Teflon. Teflon, also known as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), is a widely used non-stick coating characterized by its dark color. It offers excellent non-stick properties and is easy to clean, making it popular in various applications. However, there are specific guidelines for using Teflon. Overheating should be avoided as it can cause cracks and the release of harmful substances. Although the maximum operating temperature of Teflon is sufficient for frying, it is not extremely high. Scratches can render the coating unusable and can also lead to the release of harmful substances, so Teflon should be washed carefully, and only wooden or silicone spatulas should be used, avoiding metal utensils.

Ceramic. Ceramic coating offers a combination of safety and reliability. It is resistant to scratches and remains usable even if scratches occur, without releasing any harmful substances. Similarly, ceramic coatings can withstand high temperatures without deteriorating or emitting harmful fumes. Cleaning ceramic-coated containers is relatively easy and straightforward. However, it's worth noting that ceramic coatings are more sensitive to shocks and temperature changes, which can lead to cracking or even chipping of the coating.
