Shoutout to the cheap pressure cooker I got for $35

I picked it up at a discount store about five years ago, thinking it might be a gimmick. That thing has cooked more dried beans and cheap cuts of meat than I can count, turning them into meals in under an hour. It completely changed how I use my grocery budget, especially for stews. What's your best 'cheap tool' find for the kitchen?

Man, isn't it the best when a cheap buy works out like that? I totally get the dried bean thing... my old rice cooker was a similar find. It just keeps going, and it makes the whole "cook at home" thing way less of a chore. Those simple tools that just do their job are honestly the backbone of my kitchen.

Wait, you cook dried beans in a rice cooker? How does that even work without burning?

I get what grant_hart means, but my cheap blender was a total letdown.
