Lars Junker & Mark Fung design the new Pronto and Alto kitchen appliances that offer multiple functions in the kitchen. Starting with the Pronto, it is designed with features including weighing, slow-cooking, simmering, oven air-frying, reheating, sauteing, and more. The modular companion known as Alto eases the cooking process for users overall.
At a first glance of the Pronto, it has a modern and futuristic look of a pressure cooker with a compact shape and cylindrical design. When opening the lid, it unveils a 6-quart ILAG ceramic-coated aluminum pot within. This allows users to cool meals for up to 6 people. Additionally, the built-in scale allows easy portion control, and the handles make it easy to serve without additional utensils.
