I recently decided to upgrade my last pressure cooker to the Power Pressure Cooker XL. I'm so glad I did! The size is incredible and perfect for my family of 5. I like being able to brown up my meat first before I start the pressure cooking process and I find it a lot easier to do that in the XL. I've also tried out the rice feature and found that perfect too. It's so easy and all you have to do is select the type of rice you're cooking. Pressure cooking is the perfect way to make sure you're cooking healthy for your family, while saving time and not having to put a lot of time into a meal.
