Why this multi cooker earns its place
Commercial pressure cookers usually mean dedicated space and a learning curve. The Caterlite Multi-Cook breaks that pattern. It's a 1 kW multi-cooker that works like seven different appliances: pressure cooker, slow cooker, steamer, sauté pan, rice cooker, steriliser and yoghurt maker. Fifteen presets and a 24-hour timer handle the work unattended — you set it and it cooks consistently. That's the real win for batch work: the same pot does tender meats, perfect rice, steamed veg and pulses without switching equipment or guessing timings.
The 5.7-litre stainless steel capacity is genuinely generous. It's built for larger portions, so cafés, care settings, staff canteens and small commercial kitchens can prep a batch that actually serves a shift rather than stretching three separate cook cycles. At 10 psi working pressure, it delivers reliable, reproducible results — sauté function lets you seal and build flavour in the same pot before pressure cooking, saving another pan.
Construction is straightforward: strong aluminium housing with a premium non-stick aluminium inner pot for quick release and easy cleaning. The non-stick matters on service; you're not scrubbing down at 10pm. A 1-year parts and labour warranty backs the build.
