At a Glance

What it is: MegaChef MC-1200 11.5 Quart Aluminum Stovetop Pressure Cooker with Steamer for gas and electric-coil ranges.
Key spec: An 11.5-quart aluminum pot with a working pressure of 80-100 kPa for fast, high-volume cooking.

Included steamer rack: Steam vegetables, seafood, and more without extra cookware.
Manual stovetop control: No electronics to learn, just place it on the burner and adjust the heat.

Before You Buy

Not induction compatible: We would rather you know this now than after it arrives: this cooker is built for gas and electric-coil stovetops, it is not induction compatible.

Follow venting steps: Always follow proper venting and pressure-release steps before opening the lid.

Why This Pressure Cooker Earns Stove Space

Big-Batch Cooking Without a Big Cooker

Small pots mean multiple cooking rounds for a big batch of beans or stock. At 11.5 quarts, this pressure cooker handles large-volume cooking in a single pass on your existing stovetop.

One Pot, Two Cooking Methods

Buying a separate steamer basket adds another item to store. The included steamer rack turns this same pot into a stovetop steamer for vegetables and seafood, no extra cookware required.

Straightforward Stovetop Control

Electric multi-cookers come with menus and presets to learn. This manual pressure cooker works with the burner you already have, so heat and timing stay in your hands.
