Are these two the same pressure cooker?

They look like the same MegaChef 12-quart model: same 15 presets, glass lid, 18.7 lbs and 17 x 15 x 17 inch body. The difference is the listing, the price and the rating.

Which is better for a large family?

Both claim 12 quarts, enough for big batches of chili or a whole roast. Confirm the capacity on the cheaper listing, because its spec sheet says 6 quarts.

Is the more expensive one worth the extra?

Only if you value its 4.3 rating over 3.8. At $109.99 versus $75.99 as of November 4, 2026, the $34 gap buys no extra feature.

Which has the better price history?

The 12 Quart Pressure Cooker fell to $49.99 on November 2, 2026, and was back at $109.99 by November 5. Set a price alert rather than paying list.

Can I saute or make yogurt in either?

The 12 Quart Pressure Cooker lists saute, steam, simmer and yogurt functions. The other listing only documents pressure cook and slow cook.

How long does the slow cook mode run?

Both list up to 9.5 hours, which suits chilies, roasts and overnight batches.
