CookingPal Multo Review

The CookingPal Multo is an all-in-one cooking machine designed to combine several common kitchen tasks in one appliance. In our 2022 review, the appeal was less about replacing every appliance and more about simplifying prep, guided cooking and cleanup.

What the CookingPal Multo Does

The Multo can knead dough, weigh ingredients, sauté, steam, chop, grind and boil, among other functions. It also includes guided recipes and a smart-hub interface intended to walk users through recipes step by step.

The built-in scale and recipe guidance were two of the most practical parts of the system because they reduced the need to jump between separate tools while cooking.

Smart Hub, App and Guided Recipes

At the time of our review, CookingPal paired the Multo with a smart hub and app that included guided recipes and remote access features. Because software libraries, app support and third-party integrations can change, check the current CookingPal materials for the latest capabilities.

The recipe system was useful for planning meals because ingredients and steps were collected in one place instead of scattered across several apps or notes.

Cleanup and Everyday Use

The self-cleaning function was one of the most convenient features in regular use. The Multo could run a cleaning cycle after cooking, which reduced some of the work associated with using a large all-in-one appliance.

Its footprint also mattered. It was not a replacement for an oven or every kitchen tool, but it could take the place of several smaller appliances and pots depending on the recipe.

CookingPal Multo Review: Bottom Line

The Multo made the most sense for people who liked guided cooking and wanted to consolidate several prep and cooking functions into one machine. The biggest strengths in our experience were the recipe guidance, built-in scale, multiple cooking modes and easier cleanup.

It was not a total replacement for a traditional kitchen, but it could reduce the number of separate gadgets needed for many meals.
