The Proctor Silex 3 Quart Simplicity Pressure Cooker is a compact electric multi-cooker with a simple touch panel. It pressure cooks, slow cooks on high or low, sautes, steams and warms, with a countdown timer and a nonstick pot that lifts out for cleaning. Its main draw is the small 3-quart size, which suits singles, couples and small families better than the 6-quart cookers most rivals sell. It trades preset programs and fancy features for straightforward manual modes, so cooks who want one-touch recipes should look at larger programmable models instead.

Ratings are solid overall, and owners tend to like it as a small, easy-to-use cooker for one or two people. Complaints center on its limited capacity and lack of preset programs.
This is a 3-quart electric multi-cooker from Proctor Silex. It is smaller than typical pressure cookers and sized for meals for 3 or more people. You can pressure cook, slow cook on high or low, saute, steam, or keep food warm.
To use it, pick a cooking mode and set the timer. There are no pre-programmed settings to decipher. Pressure cooking prepares food up to 70% faster. For slow cooking, True Slow technology raises the temperature gradually, so food cooks the classic slow-cooker way without overcooking. The brown/saute button lets you brown and saute food in the nonstick pot before cooking.
A lift-out rack is included for roasting or steaming meats and vegetables. The digital display has a countdown timer that beeps when food is ready. The roasting rack, nonstick pot and condensation cup are dishwasher safe.
