The Turbo Express is the most versatile buy under £100, adding more cooking modes than the cheaper Instant Pot. Its 5.6L bowl serves six-plus, and alongside pressure and slow cooking it adds saute, steam, sous vide and simmer, with a Turbo mode the maker says cuts cook time by around 40%. At an indicative £99.99 at Currys it comes with stainless steel construction, 10 presets, keep-warm, a dishwasher-safe pot and a 2-year guarantee. Ideal Home lists Crock-Pot among the best for pressure cooking. The trade-offs are clear: no air-fry or crisp, and a plainer, less refined interface than the Ninja or Sage. But for a big household that wants the widest spread of cooking modes for under £100, it is the versatile-value pick.
