cooker
In standard modern English, "cooker" almost exclusively refers to a kitchen appliance (e.g., a slow cooker or a rice cooker). In British English, it specifically refers to the entire stove/oven unit, whereas in American English, "stove" or "range" is more common.
Using "cooker" to describe a person who cooks is a common mistake made by English learners. While technically a noun formed from the verb "cook," native speakers use the word "cook" for both the verb and the noun (e.g., "He is a great cook"). Referring to a person as a "cooker" sounds unnatural and is often perceived as an error in register or fluency.
When referring to appliances, "cooker" is often modified by the type of heat source or method, such as "electric," "gas," "pressure," or "slow."
