I bought this a couple weeks ago now and tried it out when I was at home. It worked great, steamed some veggies and fried some chicken and French fries. I thought it was going to be a miracle appliance for in my truck. Unfortunately I can't use it because it pulls way more than the 1450w that are advertised. It was pulling 1650-1700 and my inverter can't keep up. I would recommend this for a home cook, but i am going to have to find something different for the truck.
