Honestly, I cook from scratch everyday and haven't found I miss a pressure cooker. YMMV, of course.
If I did, pricing would be a factor. If these are pressure cookers with integrated timers, I would price a conventional cooker and a timer. I'd go maybe 20 bucks extra for one of these models.
Mr. Kipper isn't a fan of much cooked in a crock pot, other than soups, stews, and chilis. I like the option of being able to throw something together at the last minute.
