Advice on multi cooker - bake etc

TC77

I'm thinking of getting some sort of worktop multi cooker as my big oven (part of a range) has broken but usually there is only me (and I may move in the next couple of years) so I thought I could manage with (and be mse) to have a multi cooker type appliance. I don't cook meat but no idea what I need to look out for, if there are things I need to check and any recommendations?!
Many thanks

I have 2 types of multi cooker, both with pressure and non pressure programmes. My instant pot I use for 1 minute quinoa, 3 minute pasta, eggs, veg, one pot meals, whole chicken and pot roast. I also use it for cheese, yogurt and sous vide. It has an airfryer lid that I use for roasted veg and sausages, I've also made cakes so I think you could cook a pie.
My Sage is better than the IP for steaming and variable pressure. It does not have 0-4 minute programming though
Both have saute/sear functions and I use daily.
I rarely use the oven now, possibly once a week and the hob is mainly used for the kettle.
My sister bought a multi cooker to replace her broken main cooker and hasn't looked back.

My oven went wrong on 1st Jan and I bought one of these https://www.robertdyas.co.uk/daewoo-sda1032rd-17l-halogen-air-fryer-low-fat-oven-black?cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=17688771596&cq_term=&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&cq_plt=gp&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-qjJvJunggMVzODtCh2uagtiEAQYAiABEgKCpPD_BwE

It’s been absolutely brilliant! I only need to cook for myself daily, and my granddaughter once or twice a week so it’s been perfect for me

Thank you, I must follow these up as just using the hob!

I have a 15 in 1 Ninja

I use it all the time, the yoghurt function is fantastic, the pressure cook function is my usual go too for nearly everything, pasta, stews etc. I have baked bread and cakes in it and I love the steam roast function for the sunday roast. I use the grill setting for toasties , air fry for bacon, sausages etc. Theres a few functions I dont use as other appliances work better - slow cook for example 

I also have a dual drawer ninja which I use just as much, chips, roasties, anything really. Ive not made bread in it but have made the odd loaf cake
