Megachef12 Quart Digital Pressure Cooker with 15 Preset Options and Glass Lid, Silver

I freaking love this pressure cooker. It is huge it cooks well and I just can’t say enough about it. I wish I had purchased all of my pressure cookers from this brand I love it!

Wow! This is perfect. I can make a month or more worth of dog food. Easy to use and love it. So many features. Great for large families.

I was really excited to upgrade from my 6 qt Pressure Cooker to this 12 qt Mega Chef one. We just recently got a new dog, and I’ll just make her homemade food. This odd perfect for that, but I also use it to boil eggs, steam vegetables, make egg bites, the list is endless with this model. I recommend it for anyone!! It’s so easy to use! The value for the money was great due to the size.

Comes with thorough instruction manual and all accessories. Very large/tall, make sure you have a spot with plenty of vertical clearance. Only used twice so far but worked well both times, came to pressure quickly. Fits a lot, could probably fit a whole small turkey in there. Indicator light for 'keep warm' function very helpful. Easy to clean

I bought this to replace our Presto that broke because the plastic around the temperature probe completely crumbled to bits (no wonder they discontinued it) and I'm so happy I decided to go with this one instead of another overpriced Presto.This cooker is not only way cheaper than the Presto but in some ways it's better. For example, this has very quiet operation. The beeps when you push the buttons are kinda loud, but the cooking itself is so quiet you wouldn't even know it's running. There's no hissing or escaping steam. It's also well insulated so the pressure drops gradually after cooking is complete even if the "keep warm" function is turned off.The presets for cooking are useful and convenient, as are the few tools/utensils that come with the machine. The automatic rice setting is awesome. It determines how long to cook the rice by weight automatically and the machine comes with a special measuring cup so that you get the water to rice ratio perfect every time. I can't wait to try the yogurt maker function! The saute/browning function works well.A real highlight is the built-in stand for the lid. This is super clever and I can't believe nobody has ever thought of it before. When you open the unit you can stand the lid vertically on the side of the unit. The lid is also very easy to take apart and clean, and the little trench that runs around the lid when the unit is assembled is wide enough to clean unlike the more expensive Presto.There are some cons but given the fair price of this product they are not a big deal. First, this cooker only goes up to 12psi. A 15psi option would have made this a rockstar product. The pressure cooker time setting only goes up to 99 minutes which doesn't really make sense to me. There are buttons for hours and minutes for certain presets like slow cooking (only low setting for slow cook) so why can't standard pressure cooking be set to hours instead of minutes?Despite the small cons - the price, functionality, and performance of this product makes it a standard item in my kitchen that gets used constantly. Despite its size on the counter, we never put it away because we use it almost daily. I hope it lasts longer than the lousy Presto! Don't forget to replace your sealing rings and other rubber parts about once per year! Your unit will function much better if you do.

If I could give it 0 stars I would. THIS IS HORRIBLE QUALITY, DO NOT BUY. 1) Seal on inside of lid never sealed at all, so all water would evaporate; scorching everything. 2) Pressure knob release also wouldn't seal...steam always escaping. 3) Actual writing on the pot smeared off, as if just painted with some kind of cheap paint. 4) Pot had a lack of coating or one that dissolved, because bottom was ruined almost immediately. I really wanted to love this pot, because of it's size.I am currently living in a RV, so I needed to use this item daily. My previous experience of using a different brand was awesome, so I was expecting the same amazing value; just with the ability to cook on a larger scale.I need a refund, but I kept trying to give this pot a chance and ran out of time. I had to go purchase another brand at a local store. Such a disappointing experience.

So far so good

I’ll never use a crockpot again! This is my go to every time I cook!! It’s definitely a time saver and meals are done in no time!
