The Midea WideMax is a 6.5-quart electric pressure cooker with a 1500-watt heating element and a 24.6 cm wide cooking surface, about 19% larger than a conventional model. It offers 12 preset programs, including pressure cooking, sauté, bake, yogurt, rice, and sous-vide, and its lid is removable so you can stir or turn food without a hot lid in the way. The wide, low pot makes it better for baking and searing than tall pressure cookers, but it is bulky and its nonstick inner pot needs careful handling. Owners like the space and preset variety, though some find the interface busy and the unit heavy.

The Midea WideMax is a 6.5-quart electric pressure cooker with a wider cooking surface. The cooking surface is 24.6 cm in diameter, which is 19% larger than a conventional pressure cooker. This gives more room to sauté and turn food. It is sized to cook for up to 6 people.
It has 12 preset programs, including fast cooking, slow cooking, sautéing, steaming, rice, beans, chili, yogurt, baking, sous-vide and keep warm. It is a 9-in-1 appliance that replaces a pressure cooker, sauté pan, casserole, rice cooker, yogurt maker, oven, egg cooker, steamer and food warmer. Controls are on a touchscreen, and operation is automatic.
The lid is removable, so ingredients can be stirred without handling a hot lid. A button releases steam, and a specially developed cover reduces noise during release.
