Drew & Cole Pressure King Pro Electric Pressure Cooker 3L - 700W - Chrome - 8-in-1 Multi Cooker with Digital Display - Non Stick Pot - Rice Cooker, Slow Cooker & Soup Maker All in One

Great makes life easy

Bought a new slow cooker of medium size last year which I liked for style/ size etc but a friend was given this pressure/ slow cooker & was raving over it..I replaced the new slow cooker because with this you can sear meat & veg first in the pot, I had seen them but thought they’d be far more expensive than they actually are…only used it a couple times so far but very pleased with it..gave my nearly new slow cooker to another friend..The pressure function is not half as scary as the old fashioned one I had years ago & the cooker sits neatly on the work top.

I’ve been using this electric cooker for a while now, primarily for cooking brown rice, and it has certainly served its purpose well. When I purchased it, I was hoping to get perfectly cooked brown rice, and this cooker has not disappointed me. While the cooker’s expected cooking time is 12 minutes, I’ve found that it takes a bit longer to get the rice cooked just right. In fact, I typically need to run it through two rounds in the pressure cooker to achieve the texture I prefer. However, this slight delay is not a deal breaker for me, as long as the rice turns out well in the end.One of the standout features of this electric cooker is its capacity – it’s large enough to cook up to 6 servings, which is perfect for family meals or meal prepping. It’s been a reliable kitchen companion, and I appreciate that it doesn't consume too much electricity, making it energy-efficient.Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase. It may take a bit longer than expected to cook the rice, but it consistently gets the job done. For anyone primarily looking to cook brown rice (or other similar grains), this electric cooker is a great choice.

Perfect for stew, ham and Anything needing slow cooking. Second one I’ve bought essential in my kitchen

It does what it's supposed to do but I found it too difficult to pressure cook vegetables as different veg take different lengths of time to cook so some get cooked before others and go very mushy. Saying that, it does only take a couple of minutes to cook them, so I will use it when I make stews, or soups, I don't think that I would roast a joint in it I prefer to boil veg on the hob in a pan, that way I can add veg as I go along

I can’t say how good these cook pots are this is my second one so that says something in its self that I went and bought a new one when my other dyed I had the bigger one the first time which is really good for family’s but as there is only me and my husband decided on the smaller one this time they are so easy too use and very quick you can cook up a nice healthy tasty meal in less than 10 mins so saves on fuel stews take 25 mins and on the table I batch cook and freeze things too which helps on a day when I’m busy cooks joins I less than a third of the time and wonderful chicken I could go on but I’ve raved so much about these pots my daughter as one now and my sister and they both say they could never live with out it you can leave them to cook on there own and they nock of much faster than slow cookers two days later waiting for your tea just get one you won’t regret it but I would say get a cook book to go with it there helpful

I am gradually converting to a plant based diet and with food prices rocketing, I knew I had to start batch cooking. Although I’m retired from paid work, I’m always busy during the week so having something in the freezer to heat up quickly is great and, if I make it myself, I avoid ultra processed foods and all that plastic packaging. So, I am preparing large batches of assorted beans and lentils and cooking them in the pressure cooker, in two or three batches with different sauces. I then cool, bag up (reusable bags!) and freeze. I also cook a batch of rice and do the same thing. I am really pleased with the results and the cooker is really simple to use. I plan to start cooking fruits and vegetables soon too. This was a great buy and is perfect for one person. I can make three weeks meals in one day and it has reduced my food bill dramatically. Love it.

Flavour seems a ridiculous thing to be scoring surely that would depend on your own cooking!However I was looking for small pressure cooker I did not have to heat on hob also did not fill kitchen with steam, this I got. It arrived with the pressure valve attached (as I got it from Amazon marketplace),it was loose, I thought it broken, but it's meant to be like that. I did preparing the cooker for the first time instructions with 2litre water,it was good hardly any steam. After I measured water again, hardly any was missing! this is all good. Then it came to trying to cook with it, I found the instructions were lacing in this department, also seem contradictory, with the fast reheat instructions.I tried to cook potatoes and brussel sprouts to start, I put them on rice setting, they came out soggy. The rice setting has default time of 12 minutes! which to me would be no quicker than cooking on hob. Seems like whoever programed it didn't test cooking time. This product is also screaming out for a steaming rack!I like the slow cook function, I found you can remove lid during cooking to add stuff or stir then when lid is replaced the timer picks up where it left off. Must be careful not to use metal implements to keep non stick.Recipes are difficult to find even on drew and cole website, and no basic cooking times or steam pudding.I think I will have to learn to use it by trial and error
