Guest's Review of Microwave Pressure Cooker
27th Sep 2008
Overall Rating
- Value for money
Light, even when full and easy to clean.
Bad Points
No really bad points but could do with a food divider and also some timer instructions on basic veg cooking.
General Comments
I was given my microwave pressure cooker about two years ago and thought "Oh dear, another microwave gimmick". I am an avid pressure cooker user but find my "Normal" pressure cooker very heavy. So I decided to try the microwave pressure cooker for the first time recently. Why, oh why didn't I use this before? It is brilliant! Light and easy to clean I cooked new potatoes and cabbage in eight minutes! Apart from the usual advantages of only having to use one pan for all your veg, this little gem is lightweight, easy to clean and easy to store. there is no long drawn out waiting time for steam to be released before being able to open the lid either. In fact the cabbage I cooked came out better than in my stovetop pressure cooker. I now intend buying another of these for my mother who has arthritis in her hands and to whom the lightweight design will be a absolute boon.
On average, people found this review very helpful

The History of the Microwave Oven
Of course, asking "Who Invented Microwaves?" is like asking who invented electricity. Microwave energy is a natural phenomenon that occurs when electric current flows through a conductor.

I was considering buying a traditional stove pressure cooker. I will now research a microwave alternative.
