Ivation Pressure Cooker




I received the Ivation 7 in 1 Programmable 6 Quart Pressure Cooker through a promotion. 

Product Info:
  • Tight seal
  • High boiling temperature (Over 250 degrees Fahrenheit)
  • Easy to clean
  • Helps preserve nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and flavors
  • 11 Preset cooking styles
  • Programmable timer function
  • Automatic keep-warm
The Ivation electric pressure cooker is great addition to the kitchen that can be used to cook a variety of dishes. 

The pressure cooker comes with a few accessories. A rice spoon and small soup spoon to help dish out food. There is also a measuring cup. These accessories are not made as durable as the actual pressure cooker. They're still nice extra pieces to use with the cooker or around the kitchen.

The lid to the pressure cooker can take a few times to get onto the pressure cooker and locked into place. 

The stainless steel material of the pressure cooker is durable and can hold up for several uses. I accidentally dropped the lid and no damage was done to the lid.

The air vents on the lid help regulate the pressure inside the cooker. The seals work well to hold the moisture and desired pressure inside. It helps bring out the flavors and nutrients in the foods being cooked inside.

The pressure cooker can make foods like soup, poultry, meat, beans, rice, yogurt, steamed vegetables, and many other dishes. Even desserts, such as some cheese cakes and puddings, can be made inside the pressure cooker.

There are automatic and adjustable timers. The preset cooking modes are quick and easy to use.

One of the first dishes my family made with this pressure cooker is rice pudding. The rice was done faster than when we use our stove top pressure cooker pans. The automatic warmer helped keep the rice warm once it was done cooking. Time went much faster than expect.

I am very pleased that this pressure cooker can also be used as a slow cooker as well.

The product does come with a booklet that provides good instructions on how to use the pressure cooker.

One of my favorite parts of this pressure cooker is the inner pot. The inner pot is a thick stainless steel pot. It's durable and very easy to clean. I love the engraved measurements in the pot. For example, if making soup, you can see how much soup was made or how much is left.

 Pros:
- Size good for single or family cooking
- Preset cooking modes
- Adjustable timer
- Automatic keep warm
- Durable pan and pressure cooker
- Easy to clean
- Good information in booklet

Cons:
- None found

 Check out this pressure cooker on Amazon.

  1. I bought a pressure cooker a few years ago and I love it. I can buy those tougher cuts of meat, like chuck roasts and they come out tender in this.
