I have been using this, and three other brands, for a while now. This one is pretty good for what they all provide for us. People, the MAX psi of around FIVE... usually FOUR... is really NOT pressure cooking as we KNOW it to be. A REAL pressure cooker, either electric OR stove-top, produces around 12 to 15psi, giving us the needed EXTRA heat - AND THE PRESSURE! - to cook the food FAST. Any benefits you MAY gain from the 4psi this thing gives you here are negligible at best. It is NOT the 4psi cooking the food, but rather the microwaves. Don't get me wrong here; once LEARNED how to use properly, this thing WILL give great results. But just don't fool yourself into thinking you are PRESSURE COOKING in the microwave. Oh, and for safety, NONE of the current 'microwave pressure cookers' will produce a higher psi - NONE! This thing does a GREAT job, but only once you understand that it is not a pressure cooker like what you may have been use to using before. Once you have learned the 'proper' use of this device, it really does a wonderful job. But please_ STOP thinking, and telling others, you are PRESSURE COOKING in the microwave. All the small amount of 4psi does is help to make the food more moist and juicy - YUM! In THAT regard, it is wonderful. But it is really the microwaves doing the cooking.
Nice thing about it, you can always alter the recipe. As for the cooking time, you can cook 30 min. Then, if you need more time on roasts, etc. you can wait for it to pressure down, then put it back in and cook a bit longer. Hope that helps.
@@PattyDooley yes,thank you! I don't want it to blow up in the microwave! I got it second hand so no instructions, just what I'm learning on the internet! And yes, all recipes to taste! I don't even have salt in the house. Too much salt in most foods, so we don't need to increase our blood pressure! Have a wonderful new year! I'm enjoying your videos!
I prepared this recipe using unsalted beef broth and added fresh mushrooms. Delicious!
Looks delicious
Thank you. It is!
That does look good and I plan on making some.

25 minutes in the microwave? I think a regular multicooker is doing the job much faster and with using much less electricity.
Thank you for your input.

Why is there a max fill line? I've noticed that many of these videos go over the Max fill line. Isn't that dangerous?
What type of garlic press is this that you are using?
It's a Tupperware garlic press. But sadly, it's not in our Fall/Holiday catalog that just came out.
I need a cook book for this pressure cooker
Are you a consultant or customer of another consultant?
Way too much salt, but otherwise, that looks great! I was told the max cooking time is 20 minutes for this cooker.
