This electric cooker can handle multiple cooking methods in one appliance: boiling, grilling, and steaming. It has 5 temperature settings. I've used the pot plate about 2 or 3 times, but I'm no longer living alone and haven't used it, so I've stored it in its box. There are no noticeable scratches or stains, and I think it's in good condition. I've confirmed that it functions without any problems. It seems to be discontinued now, but it's simple & compact and easy to use, making it the perfect size for one person. I think it's in good condition, but please consider that it is a used item before purchasing.
