Ninja HyperHeat PC201UK
6L pressure and rice cooker
Editorial review Reviewed 24 October 2026 How we assess products
The Ninja HyperHeat PC201UK combines fast pressure cooking with easy one-touch rice presets. White rice can be fluffy after a six-minute cooking stage; pressure build-up, release and standing time are additional, so this is not six-minute rice from start to plate. Brown rice has taken around 25 minutes of cooking and retained a tender bite. Sautéing onions and slow-cooking chilli also work well, making the sizeable appliance easier to justify when it replaces other equipment. Its removable pot is dishwasher-safe and easy to clean. The 6L figure is pot volume: follow the separate rice fill limits and prescribed pressure-release method. The Yum Asia Kumo is better value for routine rice alone, while the Ninja Foodi PossibleCooker MC1101UK suits rice and slow cooking without pressure.
