Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker, Slow Cooker, Rice Cooker, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt Maker, Warmer & Sterilizer, Includes App With Over 800 Recipes, Stainless Steel/Black, 8 Quart

I purchased this a month ago and I have used it every day, made my life easy, its easy to use, can cook meal for whole family of four without any hassle, the different features makes it more attractive and food is always cooked properly, no need to check if done as its smart feature never fails. I could spend more time with family and less time to cook, yet serve delicious food on table . I recommend this amazing gadget to all families and mums, who likes to make everyday fresh food and enjoy family time.

I haven't used it very much yet as I have bought it to use in our motor home. I was pleased when I took it out of the package as it was very light and much smaller than my other pot, which is what I hoped for. I have just tried using the sauté, slow cook and pressure cook in my kitchen to cook recipes that I often cook. I was very pleased with the results and think it should work really well in my motor home.

This has a big safety improvement on the 3 litre instant pot, especially for the easy pressure release button at the front which keeps hands away from the pressure valve. The shallow cooking pot is much better for sautéing vegetables and meat pre pressure cooking. Touch controls are simple to use. It would be good to have a recipe book included, rather than all online. It has been used a lot for soups, mains, cakes dry successfully. I would like to be able to buy a non stick inner pot. I enjoy using it and it is very energy efficient, costing pence to produce a main meal, such as risotto in 10 to 15 minutes with fresh ingredients for 2 to 4 people.

I was so excited to try out the new classic mini and it was well worth the hype. It's wider than the old duo so has a bigger capacity and looks a bit more like a slow cooker, which fits into my kitchen so nicely. They improved the steam release to a switch and stopped the inner pot spinning as you stir, so definitely an improvement on the duo. Can't wait to try more meals in it!

You can make so many different things in this machine! I absolutely love the versatility of this product. I can now eliminate probably 2-3 large appliances and use this instead! I love that it pressure cooks AND slow cooks, so it works if I have a short amount of time or all day to prepare dinner for my family. I haven't made yogurt yet, but that's my next cooking adventure with my new Instant Pot!

I'm surprised by how much I like this! I've used it as a pressure cooker making chicken and mashed potatoes. I've used it as a standard crock pot and I've used it to make rice (though follow different instructions than those for rice). I've fallen in love with how versatile this machine is. I'm grateful to have it and will continue to use this!

I've been using the Instant Pot Duo Plus 8QT for a few weeks now, and it's become one of my most-used kitchen appliances. The large 8-quart size is perfect for family meals or meal prepping for the week. It handles everything from soups and stews to rice and yogurt without a problem. I love that it cuts cooking time way down while still producing tender, flavorful food. The interface is simple to use, and the multiple functions mean I can replace several other small appliances. Cleanup is also quick — the stainless steel pot comes out spotless after a rinse. The only downside is the lid takes a little getting used to, but once you learn the routine, it's easy. Overall, an excellent purchase that makes weeknight cooking stress-free.

Since I got my Instant Pot Duo Plus 8QT, cooking has become so much easier and faster 💕 🔸 I can make rice, meat, stews, or even yogurt in the same pot. 🔸 The screen is super clear and easy to use. 🔸 Cleaning is quick (it goes straight in the dishwasher!). 🔸 And the best part: it saves so much time! Perfect for busy days or when I get home tired. Honestly, this appliance has become my best kitchen helper. If you're looking for something practical, safe, and efficient, I highly recommend it. 🙌

I have tried a couple other pressure cookers over the years but the Insta Pot by far is my favorite. As a busy family always on the go the Insta Pot allows me to make a good complete dinner on minimal time. It doesn't take up to much counter space so I leave mine out year around. The directions are clear and precise. Unlike other pressure cookers the Insta Pot has the quick release value in the front so you are not reaching around and burning yourself. My only con about this product is that food does stick in the stainless steel pot so make sure you oil or butter it up before cooking rice and or pasta. After a lot of elbow grease I was able to get it looking brand new again.

So, I'm still undecided on if I love this or not. This is the first time I've ever used an instant pot, so it was a little overwhelming for me. I did a little trial and error on some things trying to figure out how to use it correctly and efficiently. One, this thing is HUGE. I am still shocked at how big and bulky it is. I didn't think it was going to be as big as it was. Great for my very large family, but wow! 😂 I loved that I could use frozen meat to speed up the process of cooking. With that being said, everything I read about using frozen meat, said it should only take 15-20 minutes more on cooking. Mine did not. I had to cook it probably an extra 50 minutes. Thank god I didn't have to be anywhere at a certain time, or I would have been running through a drive through. When I used thawed meat another time, it was about the accurate time it should have been to cook. I do feel like there are a few more steps to using an instant pot vs a crockpot with some of the meals that I made. I didn't like that aspect, as I was hoping it would have sped up my prep and cooking time, but I don't feel as it did. I'm going to keep giving this a chance, as there are alot of meals that I found that seem to be better suited with the instant pot. I also really like that instant pot has there own app for the various meals you can make with it. That is super helpful!
