Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 Multicooker, Pressure Cooker, Slow Cook, Rice Maker, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt, Warmer & Sterilizer, Includes App With Over 800 Recipes, Stainless Steel, 6 Quarts

I recently bought the Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 multicooker, and it has genuinely transformed how I cook! This one appliance replaces so many — pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, yogurt maker, food warmer, and more — which makes meal prep a breeze. It offers a variety of smart programs for soups, meats, grains, desserts, and everyday dishes, so I can just set it and forget it.

I love this Instant Pot. Cooking is super fast and very easy, especially when you don’t have much time. Food cooks evenly and tastes great. The inner pot is made of good-quality, durable material and is easy to clean. The multiple functions make everyday cooking much more convenient.

This is the best pressure cooker! I made BBQ short ribs for Super Bowl Sunday party. 2 batches (1hour each batch) and my friends loved the flavor and the meat so tender it melted off fork. Plus I make soup in 1 hour and steamed artichokes in 10 minutes. So simple to use. Really loving this & highly recommend.

I love my Instant Pot. I bought one for myself years ago. We decided to take it to our vacation home. Sadly, we were robbed and it was stolen! I bought another one for our home, but ended up giving that to my son. I bought one for my daughter. I then bought another one for the house to replace the one that I gave to my son…and I just bought my 5th Instant Pot, this one to take back to our vacation home, because we use it SO much and for so many things, that it’s really indispensable. Nothing else works quite like it — and believe me, we’ve tried. So if you don’t have one, get one. You’ll be happy that you did. They’re wonderful for cooking rice, pasta, oatmeal, stews, meats. You can turn shoe leather into something delicious in an Instant Pot! Macaroni cooks in 4 minutes. Rice cooks in 7 minutes and it comes out perfect every time. Steel-cut oatmeal takes 12 minutes to cook and another 10 to rest…beats the daylights out of an overnight soak on the stove and then the stovetop mess of boiling it till done. And those are just things off the top of my head. There are apps with gazillions of recipes and cooking instructions available online. The pot is easy to clean — the inner pot and the top are dishwasher safe (read the instructions for cleaning), and best of all, it just works. Every single time. This makes a great gift for someone just setting up a new kitchen. It makes a great gift for anyone who doesn’t have one! We’ve been really happy with ours — and so have the folks we’ve given them to.

It's not just good, but a very good pressure cooker. Is very versatile and has lots of capabilities. However, I liked the non-stick insert of my previous pressure cooker more than this stainless steel one, though that's not the reason for taking off one star. I would have given it five stars but took off one star because it lacks visual details. Specifically, the markings of the arrow on the body and the lid of the cooker that help align the lid and the body when closing the cooker are black on black - impossible to see. I am attaching a picture of the body only. Try to spot the black arrow and the symbol of a lock. Instant Pot, please use a white on black arrow for the body, and a green/red arrow for open/close on the lid.

I spent a lot of time figuring out whether the 3qt Instant Pot would be big enough to cook mainly for myself, and it's fine. Not too big for a single cup of rice or oats, and it can make a batch of soup or stew to serve four people. I have not had to halve many recipes. I've been using manual and electric pressure cookers for many years, and this is the easiest one yet. It's so simple to operate, works as it should, and YouTube is full of recipes and help if needed. I've been using my IP mostly with pressure cooker recipe books, and mostly with success, due to author Urvashi Pitre convincing me that IP recipes need a lot less liquid than I thought. As for accessories, people complain about the amount of vigorous steam that shoots out when releasing pressure. A steam diverter keeps steam away from the paint on my cupboards. I'm also finding the rather expensive glass lid worthwhile. The Sauté function makes the IP into a saucepan, and it's much better with this lid. Small disappointments: my 3qt pot came with a steam rack that lacks handles, not the one illustrated. There were also two silicone rings for the lid, which I thought was a nice touch until I discovered how easily they absorb and transmit strong odors. Garlic rice pudding, no thanks, so one ring is for savory dishes and the other for sweet. I'll be trying online suggestions for deodorizing the rings, and possibly buying spares. The camper in me was interested to see that this little IP's electrical draw is modest, just 700 watts, so it's very suitable for use with a portable power source. I wanted a pressure cooker, and the only other function I have used so far is Sauté. Winter is coming and there are so many more buttons waiting to be pressed! Lots of kitchen fun ahead, so this IP is really good value for money.

I recently had the pleasure of attending an incredible Instant Pot demo by Suman, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! Even though it was conducted through a video call, Suman's professionalism and expertise shone through, leaving me thoroughly informed and eager to start cooking with my Instant Pot. From the very beginning, Suman exuded enthusiasm and passion for the subject matter. His friendly demeanor and clear communication style made it easy to follow along and grasp the essential concepts. He began by introducing himself and setting the agenda for the session, ensuring that we knew exactly what to expect. Throughout the demonstration, Suman showcased an impressive depth of knowledge about the Instant Pot. He not only explained its various features and functions but also provided practical tips and tricks to make the most out of this versatile kitchen appliance. His step-by-step instructions were easy to understand, and he patiently answered all our questions, never rushing or making us feel hesitant to ask. One aspect that truly stood out during the session was Suman's attention to detail. He paid careful attention to every aspect of the Instant Pot, from proper handling to recommended cooking times for different dishes. He also emphasized safety precautions, ensuring that we understood how to use the Instant Pot responsibly and avoid any potential hazards. By the end of the demo, I felt confident and inspired to explore the vast array of recipes and possibilities with my Instant Pot. Suman's expertise and professional approach left a lasting impression, and I am grateful for the invaluable knowledge he shared during the session. Thank you, Suman, for the outstanding demonstration – you've made me an Instant Pot enthusiast! Overall, I rate Suman's Instant Pot demo with a resounding five stars!

Estaba por comprar una olla de cocción lenta cuando la instant pot se cruzó por mi búsqueda y después de leer bastante sobre ella en internet, decidí gastar un poco más de lo que tenía planeado y la compré. Y no me arrepiento! La olla es simplemente maravillosa, especialmente para alguien como yo, que trabajo fuera de casa y tengo marido y dos niños qué alimentar. No es que la instant pot sea más rápida que una olla de presión convencional, dado que como cualquier olla de presión, hay que esperar que alcance la presión adecuada, luego está el tiempo de cocción y después la despresurización para poder abrirla, pero la GRAN diferencia es que al poderse programar simplemente te olvidas de ella y no tienes que estar vigilando nada, lo cual para alguien con muchas actividades es una magnífica ayuda. Tiene muchas funciones (cocción a presión, cocción lenta, arroz, granos, vapor, salteado, yogurt, esterilizar, etc) y el instructivo viene en inglés, francés y español. Es muy sencilla de usar y de limpiar, además de ser increíblemente silenciosa. El recetario que contiene es muy pero muy básico, pero en internet encuentras un montón de recetas súper sencillas además de que en Amazon puedes encontrar recetas en libros y Ebooks a precios muy razonables. A un mes de haberla comprado ya cociné en ella arroz, pollo, vegetales, carne, avena, arroz con leche con resultados muy satisfactorios y muy fácil. Denle una oportunidad, de verdad la van a amar. Update: Después de usar la olla por 3 meses, sigo muy satisfecha con mi compra, se cocina super fácil en ella y sobretodo sin estar cuidando nada. Lo único en contra que le encuentro, es que el aro de empaque que trae la tapa guarda el olor de lo que cocinaste. No importa con qué los laves, va a guardar el olor. Aunque eso no es un problema para cocinar, pues no vas a querer preparar una avena o unas verduras si el empaque huele a pollo o carne. La solución que le veo es comprar uno o dos empaques de repuesto y usarlos para diferentes tipos de comida, tal vez uno para cosas dulces, otra para saladas y otro para lácteos.

This is hands down one of the best kitchen appliances I’ve ever owned. It’s incredibly versatile with loads of functions. the one i use the most is sous vide and it always works perfectly, The cleanup is also a breeze. Every meal I’ve made so far has turned out perfectly.

I have been using my InstantPot every night since I got it, and it has made mealtime so much easier and delicious. I can take almost anything directly out of the freezer and prepare it in minutes and have it on the table in less than an hour, including prep and additional dishes. It's quicker than going out for dinner, or ordering in, and so much healthier for you. For example, I can take a roast directly from the freezer, brown the outside in a pan with some olive oil and garlic or onions (while still frozen) then put the entire contents of the pan into the InstantPot, add a cup or two of water, set the time, and in 35 minutes, have a delicious pot roast ready and on the table. Want gravy with that? Set the pot to Saute after removing the vegetables and roast, and make your gravy directly in the InstantPot. It is so easy to set, and safe to use with it's multiple safety features, you will wonder how you managed without it before. Just like Grandma's pressure cooker, without the worry of overcooking or over-pressurizing, and it has so many multiple safeguards it's foolproof. I'm expanding what I'm preparing in it every day, with thousands or recipes online, or in cookbooks dedicated to its use. Well worth the investment, it paid for itself in less than two meals out. It's a blessing for last minute guests, hurried days with the family or making weekends more relaxing knowing dinner is only minutes away. One of the must have gifts of Christmas last year, I waited to get mine, but now I wondered why as it has made such a huge difference in preparing meals. The best appliance in my kitchen.

Estoy feliz, es la olla justo a mi medida, pequeña fácil de usar, silenciosa, realmente útil cocino solo para mí!
