Love it. size good for small family. I had one for many years and still working. Got this one for my college daughter. She had a really good meal as soon as she got it. Rice cooked so well. Can have so many functions for porridge, steaming, stew and soup, most useful functions. Love it. I have three at home, my personal chef. Soup, stew, rice, my dishes all ready at the same time when I get home! Life is good and simple.

I cook rice everyday & curries in this instant pot cooker. Super easy to use. I use the delay button too. It didn't make any noise. It's of good quality and can cook any dish that we pressure cook. Perfect size to leave on the counter. I already have a 6 qt but this is small & perfect fit for the counter.

Love my insta pot. I have narcolepsy and thus typically have very little energy to complete basic daily tasks. This has been a time saver and makes it easy for me to cook a week’s worth of meals with very little effort and few dirty dishes. This cooker can be used for anything from soups to roast, and can be used to make one serving or many. I only with the aluminum exterior was more durable as it dents very easily, and the dents are hard to remove completely. Wish I bought this ages ago!

I have a 10 quart Insta pot type pressure cooker, a 6 quart Insta pot type pressure cooker, but I needed something even smaller for when I wanted to cook for just one or two people. The size is perfect! What I loved about it: the stainless steel pot, my other pressure cookers have a coated pot and I prefer the stainless steel. Many of the Insta pot cookers do not have a low pressure setting. They only have one pressure. I use the low pressure setting a lot so I really liked that this was available on this unit. It was very easy to use. It was easy to see the settings, and it did a good job, I didn’t have to adjust timing or settings because of the smaller size. What I didn’t like about it: obviously this is an older model because the newer models have the release button on the other side of where the steam would release. You really need to hit that with the end of a spoon or you would end up burning yourself. It’s not that big of a deal, certainly not a dealbreaker. I got this from Amazon warehouse and it was brand new never used with no cosmetic defects, but the box was badly damaged. As a result, I got over $20 discount for what a new unit would cost so I am really pleased with that. This 3 quart size is perfect for people who live alone or retired couples that are only cooking for two. Very pleased with this unit and highly recommend it

This was s a great multi cooker. I made a pot roast and it came out so tender and delicious! Directions are easy and easy clean up. I love pressure cooking. Now to make other items from the preset functions. I bought this as a steal.

So... the story of this purchase is that I needed to replace my air fryer (for some reason, my air fryers don't last longer than 2 years until something in that plastic housing cracks), and I was tempted by the advertised versatility and the obviously sturdy construction of this one. I have a small kitchen, and the idea of an "all-in-one" machine was tempting. The thing I certainly regret: not waiting until it got on sale (both for Amazon Prime Day and for Black Friday) I've had the Instant Pot Duo Crisp for over a month now, and in this month I have tried a lot of its functionality. It is certainly a good pressure cooker. It is excellent for making stews, beans, stocks. I am not a huge fan of pressure cookers, but I am still trying to learn how to use it. I like the larger size, as I cook for larger crowds on a regular basis, and I do like the "set it and forget it" nature of the instant pot if I am preparing larger meals. The air fryer option was the reason I decided to go for it. Now, there is a problem - the separate air fryer lid needs to be kept somewhere, and that, in my kitchen, is a problem. As an air fryer, it is not bad, but it is a smaller one and size is a huge thing for air fryers, so that the air can circulate correctly. It does fit under the cabinets with the lid on, but it gets to be a pain if you need to open it to turn the food. Plus, no option to just shake it as I used to do with the dedicated air fryer. All-in-all, it works, but not in love with it. The sous vide option was part of the reason I bought it. I have a Sansaire and Anova immersion sticks, but the fact that you have the lid on is a huge plus for longer cooking. The downside though, temperature control leaves a lot to be desired - it can easily be a couple of degrees off when checked with a thermometer, and sous vide is all about precise temperature. Also, the pot is again on the smaller side for sous vide, but it would have been just great for say a couple of steaks. That being said, it was pretty convenient for veggies, where I am way less sensitive on having a precise temperature. I used the sous vide setting to make yogurt - that came out really nicely, and you can line the air fryer contraption with cheesecloth to strain the yogurt afterward, which was pretty convenient. The slow cooker option is not bad, but the pot is on the smaller side for that too. An oval slow cooker is way more convenient. The saute function works as expected. And I still have to play with more functions. What I was disappointed with was the manual, which does not cover all the functions; and I would have appreciated a recipe book that would offer a few examples for each of the functions available. Yes, it is possible to find plenty of recipes on the web, but it would have been useful to me to have maybe just one example recipe that demonstrated how to use steam, or what the difference between "roast" and ''bake" is. All in all, I am probably happy I bought it, even though I am not in love with it. It is pretty decent for a lot of things that I want, but it doesn't seem to excel in any of them. However, I would still consider myself to be on the learning curve for it :)

It does everything I need, from soups and stews to slow cooker stuff and air fry. I use it to make an amazing broth for collards before I add the greens. It make bone broth out of ham hocks in record time. I make great chicken soup, veg soup, curry goat, beef stew, and more. There was only one weird thing, my dog was terrified of it so I had to put it outside to cook. IDK know if she heard something but it scared her into a panic. No problem, I cooked outside no mess at all. If the pressure is on for over 35-40 minutes and I do not open it, it can sit overnight IF and only IF I don't open it. It kills all germs and even spores. Very nice appliance! I had a cheaper brand with a couple of problems so I switched to this.

This is the third Instant Pot I own. The Duo is perfect for cooking up side dishes; rice, veggies, quinoa, noodles, or pressure cooking a small portion of beef, chicken, or pork. The Duo 7-in-1 Mini is just the right size for a single person or a family of four, and is an easy travel companion for a cabin, RV, or condo.

Worth buying it. Stainless steel interior (which makes it safe to cook dishes) and easy to use.

Es exactamente para 2 personas. La tengo desde hace año y medio y la adoro Información que cura: Le caben exactamente medio kilo de frijoles crudos ya remojados (obvio con el agua, cebolla, etc). Me ha sido tremendamente útil ya que soy vegetariano y suelo comer muchas legumbres todos los días y este juguetito me ha resuelto la vida cuando estoy en un apuro. Ya he hecho frijoles, quinoa, arroz blanco e integral, huevos duros, lentejas, garbanzos (quedan perfectos), avena, cebada. Y creo que ya. Pero todo queda muy bien, solamente debes anotar los tiempos que lleva cada cosa. EXCELENTE PRODUCTO.

This is an awesome product. Easy pressure cooking with quality materials. I bought the mini, but unless you are cooking really big things this is all you need. I mostly cook for two, but the cooker will cook enough for four or more. My favorite things are the fact it has a stainless steel cook pot, it has recipes and instructions, it is easy to use it cooks beans from dry very fast and it is small. This fits under my cupboards on my kitchen counter with the lid in the up position. I soak all my beans overnight if planned and cook them in this nice pot, unless I forgot to soak them and then it can cook in an hour or so. Don't forget that the cooking times they tell you in the information don't include the heating and cooling times which are about a half hour on either side.

Es una excelente ayuda en la cocina, puedes hacer todo en menor tiempo, o puedes dejar cocinando y tú irte a hacer otras cosas.
