I highly recommend the CHEF iQ Smart Pressure Cooker! It’s perfect for someone who’s a bit hesitant about using a pressure cooker. The free app is a fantastic resource, offering a multitude of recipes that make it easy to learn or discover new dishes even for experienced users.The built-in scale is a game changer—it reduces the need for extra measuring tools, meaning fewer dishes to clean. The variety of settings is incredible, allowing this cooker to replace multiple kitchen appliances, saving both space and time.The combination of smart features and versatility makes this product a standout. Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned cook, this pressure cooker will elevate your kitchen game. Highly recommend!

I have previously owned old school pressure cookers and most recently an Instant Pot. The Instant Pot leads to more frustration than it is worth so I decided to research pressure cooker options and stumbled across this model. Game changer!!!I am very proficient at cooking but often run short on time which is when a pressure cooker is helpful. That being said, this pressure cooker is amazing. It has an app that connects to your phone where it keeps the cook updated on the cooking process. In addition, there is a wide selection of recipes that provide step-by-step cooking instructions perfect for a new cook or someone who doesn't have time or the desire to create meals. There are a wide variety of cooking options and, it has a built in scale that can calculate cooking times based on weight. The cooker itself has a bright digital screen which is very easy to use.The cooker comes with a trivet and steamer basket. There is also an add-on WiFi cooking probe (purchased separately) that connects to the cooker and ensures perfect meat doneness. This is a bit more expensive than others; however, well worth every bit of it considering the capabilities. Highly recommend!

En mi opinión le faltan muchas recetas mexicanas como el pozole pero aún sin la receta puedes cocinarlo sin ningún problema, gran producto y fácil de usar, pero si no eres bueno con la tecnología no le vas a sacar el máximo provecho

Excelente olla y muy versátil. Eso si, tiene su chiste conectarla al celular porque no está disponible, al menos para Android la app en la Play Store de México. Recomendación, descargar la app Apkpure y descargar la app CHEF IQ desde ahí. Una vez instalada, es muy facil de realizar las recetas que vienen ahí, o usarla como una olla normal y monitorear la presión y el tiempo de cocción desde tu celular estés donde estés. En la página oficial, y en su canal de YouTube hay muchas recetas. 100% recomendada.

This is probably my longest amazon review but you should absolutely buy this product. This product has been a major game changer for me. The amount of different functions that this product has is amazing. I used to order out after I got home but this product has allowed me to make healthy delicious food with ease and dependability. The product is well engineered and does exactly what you ask it to do. I have heard of sous vide, but I always thought it required pricy hardware and something else I would have to store but this product does it and does it well, from what I can tell. Perfectly tender medium rare steaks and the best part is it asks you if you want to sear the food in the cooker. Yes this product will sous vide and sear your sous vide food. Not only that it is a great slow cooker and steamer. I love salmon but I always would pan cook it and add a sauce to it. This device steams precisely and makes flaky tender salmon that only needs to be lightly seasoned. Not only do they offer the device, it is also app controlled. You do need the app to set it up but it is completely usable from the device after initial setup. However, you are going to want the app that they offer. It has recipes that they continuously update. They provide recipes and automatically configure the device to cook the desired product. Not only that it has settings that will recommend cooking methods and times. You simply enter your food and it has individual vegetables, meats and fruits you can select from, then enter either a weight or thickness, quantity and whether it is frozen or fresh and the app will recommend a cooking method and time. The only issue, and the reason it is at the end, is that some times the cooking times are off. THIS IS NOT THE FAULT OF THE DEVICE. To calculate the precise cooking time of foods is very arduous. Frozen means less than 32F but it could be 10F, or 32F or -5F, frozen is incredibly ambiguous same with fresh. For meats this means refrigerated with is generally referred to between 32F and 40F but still there are many differences in temperature. The device lets you add a few minutes. So if it is down to 2 or 3 minutes just check your temp. If it needs a few more minutes, select the time and add a few more. That is the only issue I have had and that does not deter me from using or recommending this product. This has to have been one of the best purchases I have ever made, I am amazed at this product and highly recommend you try it for yourself.

It’s so user friendly and has so many good recipes to folllow.For someone who doesn’t really enjoy cooking, I can rely on this cooker and chef iq recipes any time.The app connects to your pressure cooker using wifi and then tells you what to do with each next step with cooking!I know this appliance is expensive but I think it’s SOO worth it!I love that you don’t also have to pressure cook with it. You can saute or just simply cook in the pot. We barely use our oven now as we have an air fryer too. You can cook pasta, soup, chicken, beef, desserts, almost anything. The app helps you with recipes and guides you as it’s wifi based.It’s fairly easy to clean! The inside pot is a nonstick so everything slides off.If you aren’t confident in the kitchen, this a perfect to go appliance. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
