Automatic steam release. Who hasn’t been shy about releasing pressure from a cooker? The sound alone used to make me jump, even if I knew it was not going to burn me because the valve was pointed in the opposite direction. Now I just sit in the living room and listen for the appliance to release in the manner I asked it to. Ahhhhh. It does instant, intermittent and natural releases. Truly my favorite feature.
Step by step instructions. Now, I don’t really need these, but it is so much fun to choose a recipe and have the app tell you what to do. Need to add a cup of water? Sure, you can add a cup of water after measuring it. But it’s so cool to see the scale tell you EXACTLY when you’ve added the right amount. I can imagine a person who has never cooked anything would love the step by step instructions even more than I do.
Next, I love the app. “When will dinner be ready?” Um…. (Open app) “13 minutes and 11 seconds.” I’ll bet you can’t be that precise unless you’re using this awesome app! By the way, even if you aren’t using the pre-programmed recipes, the app still shows you what’s going on and allows you to make changes.
I love being able to do almost everything in one pan. Want spaghetti? Brown the meat, sauté the vegetables, add the dry pasta and water, and it’s ready in literally a few minutes. One pot.
There is no guesswork in timing. Tonight I selected sous vide, pork, pork chops, one in thick. It set the temp and time automatically and automatically selected sear when finished. This works for whatever feature and ingredient you are cooking.
Sooooo many cook functions. Slow cooker, pressure cooker, sous vide, sauté, and the list goes on and on.
The only feature that I wish was better is on the app. I wish there were two ways you could save recipes. Right now you can click the heart on a recipe to mark it as a favorite. I would like to see a way to add a folder for “want to try” or something similar. I look at recipes in the app and don’t know yet if they will be a favorite but definitely am interested in trying them. They all get lumped together in one folder which can be inconvenient if you use the cooker and app as much as I do. I did send a request to the company but I don’t know if it’s scheduled for an update in the future or not.
I hope this helps if you’re trying to justify the investment. There is a little bit of a learning curve, but if you use a tablet or smart anything I don’t think you’ll have a problem.
Bottom line? Just buy it!
Pros:
- Competitive price: At under $130, it competes favorably with other brands like InstantPot and Ninja Foodi.
- Integrated scale: This handy feature is a great addition, although the longevity of the sensors in the feet is yet to be seen. It seems to me one should be careful of not banging the appliance or letting it fall too hard while moving it.
- Internet connectivity and app integration: The ability to receive firmware updates (like the sous vide addition) and to follow recipes easily via the app is fantastic. I have gotten many new ideas while browsing the recipes. People also rate them and that's quite helpful.
- Automatic pressure release programs: This unique feature allows for hands-free quick release or pulse release, a first in my experience with pressure cookers.
Cons:
- Pot material: The non-stick coating is convenient but may not be as durable as stainless steel. I hope the manufacturer offers a stainless steel pot option soon.
- Initial setup: Despite the manufacturer's efforts, setting up the app and connectivity can be a bit complex.
In sum, I'd say give it a try and see if it works for you. Despite a few minor drawbacks, its unique features and convenience make it a great choice for anyone looking to explore new recipes and enhance their cooking experience.
First, as a machine it has been easy to use/clean, well-executed, and solid. That's the "floor" of performance you should expect at this price point and they hit it in a sleek way. I've had it for a couple of months and seen no problems in that (albeit short) period of time. I would hope that the other higher end multi cookers also hit that floor.
What I especially liked about ChefiQ were these elements: 1) the auto release; 2) the app & guided cooking; 3) the presets by weight. The first part might seem simple, but it was huge for me. The cooker auto releases pressure through natural, total or pulse methods with keep warm on or off. So, once you set it to release after a set period of time, it just does it. So there's no hovering around the machine to get the timing right on that. Truly, set it and forget it.
The cooker connects to an app that provides a great set of recipes and guidance for guided cooking. (It is not necessary to use the app -- everything can also be done manually through a nicely designed interface.) New recipes are added weekly, though there's a lot in there already and they are pretty good. The app connects to the machine and leads you and the machine through making the recipe, including telling the machine to auto release or whatever. The app also helps you game yourself to do better. For example, if the recipe says to sear the pork chop for 3 minutes...it will also help you time 3 minutes so that you don't say "feels that 3 minutes" when in truth it has only been 1.5 minutes and you're feeling antsy.
And then finally, the machine has a zillion presents for all kinds of meat, rice, vegetables, etch that can work by weight as well as other means. So if you want to put in long grain rice, poor it in, have the machine judge the weight and then set itself for the number of minutes automatically, it can. I think these are all features that will just get better and better through firmware updates over time.
So if you are buying a new multi cooker or are interested in upgrading, I would strongly recommend considering this machine.

It’s a great size 6 oz. Feeds my family of three
I love the black matte colour.
The Chef IQ app is amazing!! It’s so user friendly and has so many good recipes to folllow.
For someone who doesn’t really enjoy cooking, I can rely on this cooker and chef iq recipes any time.
The app connects to your pressure cooker using wifi and then tells you what to do with each next step with cooking!
I know this appliance is expensive but I think it’s SOO worth it!
I love that you don’t also have to pressure cook with it. You can saute or just simply cook in the pot. We barely use our oven now as we have an air fryer too.
You can cook pasta, soup, chicken, beef, desserts, almost anything. The app helps you with recipes and guides you as it’s wifi based.
It’s fairly easy to clean! The inside pot is a nonstick so everything slides off.
If you aren’t confident in the kitchen, this a perfect to go appliance. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
