Wife uses it tons. Most things come out nice. Pot roast takes 80 minutes and slow release though. Shorter times make it tough.

Love ours. Dried beans with no overnight soak!?! Rice easy peasy. Love chicken breast to shred for enchiladas or chicken and rice.

Tons of recipes on line too.

Had one about 6 months now and use it at least 3 or 4 times a week. Love it - perfect for a busy family.

Love ours as well. Hard boiled eggs that are 100% perfect and easy to peel. Chicken thighs. Rice. Pork shoulder. Stews. To name some things we really like it for. Definitely a useful time saver.

My wife uses ours all of the time. Really good and fast chow has been made.

We have two at our house. One got used tonight, both were used last night and so on and so forth. I can't remember life before we had these. They're a pillar at our abode.

Can’t believe how versatile and easy it is to use. We hardly use the stove top any more.

My wife uses it a lot. Quite versatile: Chicken, Roast, stew, veggies, mashed potatoes, even canning.

That and the Anova are mainstays in my kitchen. Good to hear they are so popular-must mean people are cooking.

Fantastic device. Makes great whole chicken soup and rice. I use it weekly for different things. Best part is the pressure cooker which I never had before.

Used one on a corned beef and came out great.
I like to mess with my wife and pretend I'm walking over to pop the cover in the middle of the cook to take a peek.

Got one for the wife Christmas before last. At first she was like" What do you expect me to do with this thing?" But, she decided to give it a try and loves it.

I e had a 6 at for a few months. I use it regularly.
It’s nice to be able to pour stuff in it, walk away, and come back to a meal.

The Instant Pot website has a comparison chart that shows 16 different models, including at least one with Bluetooth! How do you determine which one to buy if you’ve never had a pressure cooker before?

I looked at all those, and just got the smallest and simplest one. $60.
