Yedi HOUSEWARE 9-in-1 Total Package Instant Programmable Pressure Cooker, 6 Quart, Deluxe Accessory kit, Recipes, Pressure Cook, Slow Cook, Rice Cooker, Yogurt Maker, Egg Cook, Sauté, Steamer, Stainless Steel

My ancient slow cooker recently died and I looked to replace it with another. Then I began reading about all the glowing attributes of electric pressure cookers...and how they are much more versatile than a one-use appliance.I had done A LOT of research before deciding to purchase this Yedi electric pressure cooker. One of the things that differentiated this product from the competition was the inclusion of a glass lid (for slow cooking and sauteing), an extra (taller) trivet and silicone ring, and the rice paddle and ladle. These were items I would have had to acquire separately, except they were part of this "kit"....and at a MUCH LOWER price point than other brands of cookers alone!I may be late to the electric pressure cooking craze, but I am absolutely THRILLED to have purchased the Yedi Multipot 9 in 1. This 6 qt. size has ALL the features of the original name brand product. It is quality through-and-through. The stainless steel bowl and other accessories are not flimsy at all, and the cooker is solid and built for long-lasting use.Using this cooker is very intuitive -- the instructions and helpful "cheat sheets" remove the trepidation I had with this "newcome" to my kitchen. All of the wonderful recipes available in cookbooks and online translate perfectly with the Yedi.The option of a "Copper" color just put me over the moon! It is absolutely stunning and unique. Whether actively cooking or sitting on the countertop it is a show-stopper -- everyone wants to know where I got it!Yedi's customer service is beyond EXCEPTIONAL! I received speedy and very thorough answers to some minor questions I had. Bobby (Vice-President of Yedi) genuinely wanted my experience cooking with the Yedi to be pleasant and stress-free (which it is!).For the same price range of similar cookers, you get a better value with the Yedi. The company stands by their product (and YOU). I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this quality appliance for gifting.I am having FUN cooking again, and this appliance has opened up our family's menus to new, creative, delicious and SPEEDY meals. It is absolutely unbelievable what you can cook in this! (And yes, it's true -- cheesecakes are INCREDIBLE!)

Look, I'm just a basic guy. When I cook something, it has to be fairly simple but I also want it to taste good. Usually it doesn't. While I like to eat "gourmet," I don't have near the patience or interest to cook that way. I have made up a recipe I call a "beef stew chili." I throw in some bell peppers, onion, jalapeno, cayenne pepper, etc. - you get the idea - and then throw in a couple of pounds of beef stew meat. Usually this recipe comes out with rubbery meat, even it I cook it in a slow cooker. I've tried braising this and sauteing that, but it still comes out rubbery. When I made this recipe in the Yedi, the meat came out amazingly tender - a first for me - and I didn't have to do anything fancy to get it that way. Plus the whole thing tasted great. Another first. I have since tried a couple of other recipes and they came out surprisingly good. Honestly, I can't believe I made them. So, if you are a basic guy like me, you will really appreciate this product. Not a lot of preparation, fast cook time, and not much to clean up.I bought this particular unit on the strength of the customer reviews and find I agree with the 9 out of 10 customers who rate this product 5 stars. But I did note at the time I made the purchase that it didn't have much in the way of accessories. Now that I've found I truly like this cooker and seem to be using it all the time, I wrote off to the company asking if the various accessories made for the 6 quart Instant Pot would also work with my Yedi. The interesting and impressive thing was that I wrote my inquiry on a Sunday late afternoon and got a reply within an hour from Bobby Djavaheri, Vice-President, Yedi Houseware. This, my friends, is customer service when you have a C-level officer responding to a run of the mill user questions on a Sunday no less. Actually, I was a little shocked. (But happy since he told me that all of the Instant Pot 6 qt. accessories would, in fact, work on the Yedi, so actually we have plenty of accessories to choose from.)In summary, it appears to me that the product is of high quality and works well. And it appears that the company is responsive and very well managed. The bottom line is that I think I made a good decision in selecting the Yedi for purchase. And as long as my rudimentary recipes keep coming out like they have so far, I will be a happy little camper.

I am ecstatic about this pressure cooker! I originally bought it to save money and eat more at home. This made it fun and I can get creative! So far, I have made rice, fish and two different chicken dishes. They are all extremely flavorful and have all been completely done in 12 minutes or less. This is with the exception of prep, but I don’t mind the prep part at all.You can pull up recipes even if they are meant for other devices. They all work very similarly. I’m happy to have supported this specific brand because it seems as though it’s a little more mom and pop in a sense that it’s less known than Instant Pot.I found it very easy to use and I do not consider myself a tech person. I just took a few moments to read the manual upfront and from there, I just followed directions.I highly recommend this to eat healthy, save money and enjoy the act of self love that is cooking for ones self. Also, if I had a family, I would be using the hell out of this thing. It always makes enough to feed multiple people and again, time efficient!It is extremely easy to clean as well. I also enjoy that I can begin to wash some dishes as things are cooking.One thing I have noticed… And this is still a very new product for me, I recommend searing chicken using the sauté setting, before following the remainder of the recipe. I prefer to have a little texture to the skin.Other than that, I love everything about this thing! I get excited about what I’m going to make next!In salmon photo: everything was made in the Yedi with the exception of the Brussels sprouts—which I did on the stove top.
