I would actually vote this as the most pointless kitchen gadget. Takes up a massive amount of worktop space i and everything you cook in it can be done on the hob/oven. The last time I can remember using it was to sterilize baby bottles/ a dummy, never cook using it.
I am surprised this thread has gone on this long and nobody has mentioned the microwave oven. No moire keeping dinners hot on a plate over a saucepan of boiling water or drying up in the oven. That is apart from cooking convenience food.
I thought you didn't like reheated meals..![]()
