Make a crowd-pleasing meal in no time.

After a long day, the last thing you want to worry about is “what’s for dinner?” Here are our top picks for pressure cookers.

This machine can handle just about anything. (Instant Pot/)

The “Insta-Pot” can do it all. It goes beyond what a traditional pressure cooker can do and also works as a slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté, yogurt maker and warmer. With 14 settings to choose from, your favorite meal is a button away. There’s a reason for its legions of fans.

Make the perfect grain every time. (Cuckoo/)

The Cuckoo rice cooker is our favorite worry-free rice cooker. While other methods of cooking rice can leave the grains soggy and overcooked, this machine is designed with a special water drainage system that collects excess water vapors to lock in the flavor and texture of your rice every time. We love that clean-up is a breeze with the auto clean function. This rice cooker will soon become your favorite kitchen device.

This option features special technology that sets it apart from competitors. (Ninja/)

The Ninja pressure cooker combines the best parts of a pressure cooker and air fryer into one diverse machine. This cooker boasts an 8-quart pot that is large enough to hold a 7-pound chicken. One of our favorite features is the dehydrator that removes moisture from vegetables, fruits and even meat for a delicious snack.

The 1970s are in the past, this machine got a new century makeover. (Presto/)

Meet the newest Presto 6-quart pressure cooker. This machine cooks food in a matter of minutes while preserving flavor and nutrients. We love that the pressure regulator automatically maintains the correct pressure so there’s no need to worry about overcooking. This is a great option for smaller workspaces.
