The days of drudging away in the kitchen for hours just to come out with overcooked steak, are long gone. Busy folks everywhere have made it their mission to spend less time at the stove (or less money on takeout) and still produce Top Chef-worthy spreads. And a couple magical appliances have made that mission possible. 

Enter: pressure cookers and sous vide devices. One speeds up the cooking process and one slows it down, but both work to eliminate extra work on your part and make sure you are practically guaranteed to come away with something tasty.

If you’re someone who plans ahead and prefers a low-maintenance, cook-ahead style, sous vide is perfect for you. If you’re a procrastinator who throws dinner together right before eating it, the pressure cooker is right up your alley. If you’re a mixture of both, either one will make your life easier – and your meals more enjoyable.

Here are nine of these magical appliances on sale this weekend so you can step up your cooking skills with little to no effort.
