Power Pressure Cooker XL Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июл 2017
- Hi Guys, today I’m reviewing the Power Pressure Cooker XL 6 Quart. LINK TO Power Pressure Cooker XL: amzn.to/2sfRUGB The unit is 13 inches tall, 13 inches wide and 11.5 inches deep. The cord is 35 inches long and using an extension cord is not recommended.
This is the lid with a pressure seal and vent valve. For safety, there won’t be pressure build up if the lid is not closed correctly. Also, the lid can only be opened when all pressure is released.
There is a rubber gasket under the lid. Turn to open the lid. The inner pot is nonstick and has a max line. Don’t fill above it. It holds 6 quarts and has markings. Also, if you’re cooking rice or beans, don’t fill more than halfway since they’ll expand during cooking.
The stainless steel base has a control panel with seven modes of cooking. The different modes are listed in the manual with their cook times. All seven modes have a default time. You can press the cook time selector button and choose medium or well for longer cooking times. So if you’re cooking a stew, the default setting is 10 minutes. You can change to medium which is 30 minutes or high which is 60 minutes. When you’re making rice, us the selector to choose white, brown or wild rice. The time adjustment is what you use to set a specific time for cooking with any mode. The manual has a cooking chart for meat and vegetables and the amount of liquid to use. You can also cook frozen foods in this unit without defrosting, just add 10 minutes extra for meat.
Included is a measuring cup, ladle, steamer tray and condensation collector. The collector goes on the back of the cooker. Empty this after each use. There is an instruction manual, recipe book with recipes for meat, soups and stews, rice and desserts. A canning manual with recipes is also included.
When you first get the unit, wash the pot, lid and gasket (pull it out of the lid) with warm soapy water and dry. Put the pot in the base, fill ⅔ full with water. Put the gasket in the lid, put the lid on and turn until you hear a click. Rotate the pressure valve to the lock position. Attach plug to the cooker and then plug into a wall outlet. Press Canning mode and set for 10 minutes.
When the cycle is finished, using tongs, rotate the pressure valve to the open position. This allows the pressure to release quickly. Open the lid holding onto the black handle. The steel parts are hot. Let the unit cool to room temperature and discard the water. Rinse the pot and dry it. Now you can start cooking with this unit.
You saw how this pressure cooker xl performed. If you want to give this pressure cooker a try, I’ve put a link in the description below.
You can use the unit to sautee onions and brown meat before you make a stew. The lamb was moist and absorbed all the flavors in the gravy. The rice was cooked perfectly at about the same or faster than some rice cookers. There was no issue with the unit coming up to pressure and releasing it. I hope you found this review useful. Share this video and subscribe for reviews of products you use every day. Thanks for watching. I’ll see you next time :)

I just bought this at Costco. Your video really helped me to understand the written instructions so much better!! Thank you!
I have had mine for over 2 years and it's one of the best things you can have in the kitchen.
You don't have to heat the whole kitchen up in the summer.
I even took it to work the other day and made lunch for the employees.
They think I am a hero now !
"It's not your grandmother's Pressure Cooker" It's GREAT !
Thanks for sharing 😀
I have mine for about 4 Years it works great
Thanks for the refresher on the use of our Power Pressure Cooker XL. You were very clear on each step and especially to clean the lid properly.
Glad you liked the video, Spencer 😀
This was one of the best instructional videos I've seen in a long tine. Thank you very much.
You’re welcome! 😀
Agreed! I have one been scared to use it but I used it today and I love the idea of using tongs to release the pressure. Easy suggestion but I just didn’t think of it lol
I just listened to a dozen videos on the unboxing of this cooker and your's is the best. Thank you. The others had much wasted time with miscellaneous
comments and attempts to be humorous. This was a very good video. Straight and to the point.
Glad you liked the review, Jim 😀
Amen
Love the directions thank you.
Does it shut down completely after cooking the meal without going in the "keep warm" mode?
when canning the pressure valve continues to hiss steam out all through the canning process! Is this right No one seems to have an answer. Any help ? And also no we never use to much water and we follow all directions when using Power Pressure Cooker XL
Great video with exceptional descriptions. Thank you.
😁👍
Hello! ... I have this in a 10qt (it’s fabulous) however, it didn’t include a canning* cookbook/guide (despite its option button for canning) - does anyone have an idea of where I could purchase this? (thanks in advance)
This will be my very first time purchasing a pressure cooker and I think I have made up my mind after watching this video. Thank you for sharing
Wonderful!😀
Can you do Natural Release with this? Is there a safety valve/pin which tells you when is safe to open the lid?
I enjoyed your review. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you like it :)
I have one and love it.
Update on the new models!
The older models had a button on top that said "cook time selector"
The New models that have the red pressure indicator on top of the lid says instead of "cook time selector" now says "Saute"
Which means you cannot use the big round button on front to change the cooking time. If you press it and put the lid on it will beep at you and flash "LID".
You have to select what you want to cook and immediately press the minute button to reach the cooking time.
I called customer service and got a person in the US that explained this. She said the "Saute" button on from is for searing the food and not jump to the cooking time.
My new pressure cooker doesn't automatically seal up for pressure cooking so I have to jiggle the lid to make it quit letting steam out the vent hole on the lid handle.
Thank you for this! Mine kept beeping and saying LID
I used mine for the fist time to make soup. I was so NERVOUS using my IP bc I didn’t want it to explode on me IF I used the wrong steam setting 🤣🤦♀️ THANK YOU! for making this video!
Glad it was helpful 😁
When baking a cheesecake,, would you use the wire rack or the steam tray?
Comment faire du yogourt dans le power pressure cooker xl?
I want to do yaourt in the power pressure cooker xl, what I have to do?
Thank yo much! You saved my children's lives😂...they lost my manual. Your recipe looks delicious! I know my husband and our children would love it!
Wonderful!
I found that larger recipes took a long time to seal and lock. Wet the gasket beforehand and it will seal and lock much faster.
Every time I cook porridge it sticks to the bottom, any tips
Thanks for explaining about the part on the lid
My friend gave me her instant pot she never used it and I had problems with closing and opening the lid since missing the manual from the pot. The problem was the inner part with the seal on was the other side around hah.

Wow, rice, finally. Have had mine for 5 years. Do you have any other recipes for power pressure? I know the last comment was 3 years ago.
Love this pressure cooker its fast, safe, and the food is delicious
😀
Thankyou so much for such informative video 💝
You’re welcome 😀
I just received this as a gift, and I'm appreciative of your video
😀
I just bought mine at goodwill and I don’t have the instructions. I want to make beans and it did not let me set the minutes. I tried to watch the videos but my cooker is different . Please help
This review really helped me use the pressure cooker.
Wonderful 😀
thank you for sharing..
How do I know what sz pot I have? How do I know the most cups I can put in?
How do you cancel it once it's done cooking?
Thank you for the review. Would prefer stainless steel, no coated non-stick inside the pot. Eventually, the coating will wear away into the food.
You're welcome! Stainless steel is definitely a better choice :)
I disagree... This cooker has a strong coating that will last a long time and won't wear off. Non stick and easy to clean
YOU are DEAD WRONG!!
Yes stainless steel we got an insert to fit inside coated pot does not lose very little room.

Glad you liked the review, Jean 😀
Anyone able to show me how to cook quinoa with this model pressure cooker?
Works!
Is this better than the instant pot
I love my Power Cooker XL
Thanks for sharing 😀
Hi on top of the handle there is a little hole should it be makin some steam noise while cookin for 40mins?
That hole should not make any noise while cooking. It's the pop valve that springs up under pressure and prevents you from opening the lid. Mine used to pop up automatically but with time it stopped doing that so do what I do and push in the chrome pin on the side of the lid once you close the lid, this allows free movement. It's a cheap design that hangs up with age. Other than that I have no other issues.
I just need to know how much water to put in there with my jars?
I have the larger one. Takes up a lot of cabinet space; doesn't fit under cabinet. Seems to cook like my older stove-top cooker. Rice & quinoa cook ok in it.
How do you sautee there is no sautee button
What PSI does it cook at?
Do they still make this model?
Muy interesante e instructivo
😀
My mom got a similar pressure cooker off and and I loved it in the beginning but now after having it over a year it's hit or miss mostly wit rice and certain meats...But when it wants to work it's great
Thanks for sharing, Bella :)
check out the rubber seals inside and replace them.
Bella Marie wit.....OMG🤦. Please don't have any kids, they will end up ignorant just as you are. People like you, make me embarrassed to be an American!
Forgot to spin knob inside lid once you replace it back together to unblock timer
what is e4 for?
Thank you I misplaced my manual. Life saver!
Can anybody explain how can i do bone broth??
How long time?
Which programm?
Just got this cp xl but am wondering about the valve , it looks loose
Same here
I already have one and its cool but how do I use it to make stock form chicken or beef bones?
Hi, I'll be demoing stock making in an upcoming pressure cooker review. Subscribe to get a notification of that review.
To make stock, use the Soup setting and set timer for 30 minutes. Here is a stock recipe from Power Pressure Cooker's website: www.powerpressurecooker.com/rsp_details.php?rpid=175

love your video! but why they put the measurement on the out side? Can't see anyway
i bought 10XL and it wont seal to cook why?
What if it's close empty and it's not opening What do I do?
We roasted a pig outside it was done all of the way how long Should I cook it to get it done?
Hi,
Thanks so much for posting this review.
I have the 5L version and the manual says to pour 3.5L of water in. I selected the Stew 30 minute option but it just sat there for 45 minutes not counting down from it's 30 minute timer.
For a lot of that time steam was venting out of the top part of the closed valve, so I eventually just switched it off worried that it might explode. The valve was definitely closed though.
How long please did it take your pot to start it's countdown in your video? And was steam coming out of your valve before it pressurised?
Hi, you're welcome! It took 35 minutes for the unit to reach pressure (and then count down) during the test run. It was set to Canning for 10 minutes.There was no steam venting out. 😀
Could you do a spaghetti and meatballs recipe? With your power pressure Cooker XL. The same unit you used in this video.
how can I order replacement parts?
Awesome helpful!!!!
Thanks 😀
What material is the inner meal pot made of?
Hi Brian, since the pot has a non-stick coating, my guess is aluminum.
Donde puede comprar el empaque De mañana de la olla
pressure not adequate for high altitude canning which is considered anything above 1000ft
Have had two different pots so far.....pot isn't stick free.......after a few months......food sticks no matter how careful you are. I babied mine with great care and rubber gasket still stretches out of shape. Now once again I have to replace both pieces. Will never purchase this unit again. Other than that...it's a great cooker.
Yes!... I have the same issue. The "Vessel" as they call it (the pot itself) is NOT a non-stick coating. It looks like a non-stick coating but it is not. I cook spaghetti in it and it BURNS badly on the bottom every time! It's really hard to clean the bottom of the burned pot! If I knew what I know now about this pressure cooker, I would have bought a different brand, one that has a shinny vessel and not one that has a look-alike non-stick coating.
I burned my pot because I forgot to put the gasket in and I am having a difficult time finding a replacement pot. Where can I get a pot only. Everything else is working fine.
Hi, to get replacement parts, please call their customer service department at 973-287-5159.
Come si pulisce il coperchio dell altra pressure cooker starly

My one complaint is that I now have warped inner pan because the pan fell off the counter. So be careful with th e inner pan.
Exelente , fuera pocible en español, de ante mano gracias.
Good morning . this was so helpful . I just purchase a Electric Pressure Cooker .
Glad it was helpful 😁

Thank you for the nice video and review. Have a 8 quert love it.
😀👍
Werter?
Still need to know about canning information.
How would I use this as a slow cooker?
Hi Linda, there is a slow cook function on the panel :)
so would you just add your ingredients push slow cooker and add the time you want it to cook?
Exactly!

There's no canning rack. Don't you need a canning rack for the jars?
Quisiera que lo tradusieran en español por favor
GOOOD STUUF......MADE IT ALSO....GREAT VIDEO....KEEP ON COOKIN'!.....
Thanks, Adam 😀
Tried to make chicken but pushed the incorrect button. Took 6 hours for the unit to reset before I can use it for my chicken recipe. Piece of garbage. Worst machine I've ever had
Necesito instructivo en español
Yo quiero el book
I was considering buying this Power Pressure Cooker from watching the infomercial on tv
I did not because I bought the Power Air Fryer first at Sam's Club. It worked fairly well I did
A few steaks and ribs which turned out pretty good. The disappointment came after cleaning
a few times. The copper coating, of the cooking basket, if it is copper started flaking off and the finish in the tub where
The basket sits in also started flaking off. So the quality of the appliance is sub par convincing
Me not to purchase the Power Pressure Cooker. It may be a good product, but because they're
other product didn't meet my satisfaction, I would not buy this one. I did however purchase
the Instant Pot pressure cooker after I googled electric pressure cooker reviews, and most every one liked it the best due to the stainless steel pot. It has worked flawlessly
It was about $30/40 dollars more, but the quality I believe is superior. When considering making
a purchase of anything, check the reviews of the item and those of they're competitors.
This one has canning capabilities tho.
I wish I had done some homework. I have not been able to set a cooking time on this thing and I wish I had bought the Instant Pot instead.
Please don't let your experience with the fryer scare you away from the pressure cooker. I have had my pressure cooker for about 3 years and don't know how I lived without it. Don't believe all you see on TV, they are professional chefs selling a product. You will find out how it will best serve you when you start using it. It took me a few times using it to realize I should use my own recipes not the ones in the cookbook. The apple pie is horrible, don't waste your time or ingredients. I just thought I would tell you that. I hope you will find this information useful.
Very nice demo but please don't buy this product! I did and was very happy with the cooking results. I bought mine on 9/2/18 and used it 3 times the first week. I stored it in my closet in it's original box because I don't have cabinet space for it. Brought it out last week and cooked 2 pork roast, "for pulled pork" which came out great. That's a total of 5 times using it. Brought it out again this morning and rinsed the pot, to cook 2 more. I notice shiny spots in the bottom of the pot. On a closer look the coating was coming off in several places. I only used wooden or plastic made for coated pans to remove or stir anything I had in the cooker. Never stored anything in it either. I'm over my 60 day warranty so they can't do anything to help me. I have 7 more roast to cook for a Benefit, guess I'll do it the old fashion way "takes 24hrs" in a crock pot. Guess I'll keep it for canning. My suggestion is to buy one with a pot that's not coated!
