The Evo Plus cooks up to 70 percent faster, with a 1400w heating element that reduces preheating time, allowing you to whip up meals quicker. While its QuickCool lid also shortens the time it takes to release pressure, meaning you can start sampling those new dishes sooner.
There are also plenty of controls to help customize all the new meals you'll be cooking, with 48 presets for soups, beans, rice, and ribs, among other food types. Advertised as ten appliances in one, the cooker offers bake and sous vide options as well, so you won't need to invest in a separate machine purely for those tasks.
