Our take on the Cook Central 3-in-1 4QT Multicooker

The Cuisinart Cook Central is a 4-quart countertop cooker that combines three jobs: slow cooking, brown/sauté, and steaming. You can brown meat or soften vegetables right in the pot, then switch to slow cook without dirtying another pan, which is the main draw over a basic slow cooker. The nonstick aluminum pot is removable and the parts are dishwasher-safe, so cleanup is simple. It suits small households and anyone who wants one appliance for braises, stews, and steamed vegetables rather than a full multi-cooker with pressure cooking.

Is the pot dishwasher-safe?
