I gave my previous one (i.e. 2 years old) to my daughter for making soups. The PRIMARY reason for buying this one was for the sous vide feature, which allows me to clean my N95 face masks. However, there are some improvements in this model (e.g. in addition to the 'sous vide' feature) and, so far, they are notable: o The unit is faster in its heat cycle; o The process takes less time than its predecessor to cook; o It retains pressure longer, so one needs to 'vent' the unit earlier in the cycle to prevent over cooking; o It is 'quieter' in the heating cycle than its predecessor (i.e. no steam escaping, while building pressure to shut off the vent valve. This thing represents a definite improvement over the previous model. Thank you for the opportunity to educate those who may wish to purchase this fine unit! Read full review

I bought this to replace my original electric pressure cooker (different brand) that the movers didn't pack well and the base broke. I love it! The only drawback is that the steam release is all or nothing. On my other PC, I could let it out a little at a time. Not a big deal I guess, I'll get used to it. On the plus side, this one has a sous vide option - very cool!! Have used the pressure cooker option and it works great. Used the sous vide on bacon - that isn't the best test, tho it seems to work fine.

Instant pot duo is so convenient and easy to use. I had to watch videos on YouTube to figure out how to use it correctly. The pot is large so you will need space to store it. Also it is a little too large for one person unless they are cooking large amounts of food. The pot is versatile so there is so many type of dishes that can be prepared in it.

I've used my Instant Pot several times (and I've only had it a week) and it is very convenient and a great way to be able to pressure cook without being within earshot of my older jiggle-type manual pressure cooker. The manual that comes with the Instant Pot is almost useless, so it helps to go online to get information from other sources, or buy a specialized cookbook or two. I love the stainless steel inner pot, it is easy to clean and I know that it will last for years and I don't have to worry about any finishes flaking off. It is a rather large appliance, so that needs to be considered for those with a small kitchen, but it can replace more than one other appliance. I would definitely recommend this appliance!

I use this fabulous machine almost every other day. There is no end to the possibilities. Last week I made my own yogurt for the first time! Fabulous, and easy instruction. Yesterday an incredible leg of lamb, braised and roasted. Between this and my Air-Fryer/Baker I don't use my overn. Saves time, less trouble, and more nutritious.
