RIO Wide Plus, 9-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker, 35% Larger Cooking Surface, WhisperQuiet Steam Release, Multi-Cooker, Slow Cook, Rice Maker, Steamer, Sauté, Cake, & Warmer, 7.5 Quarts

I have been thinking about getting one of these for a couple of years now, being that I am in my 60s. I am like most people my age who are trying to size down and get rid of the excess, not wanting to add yet another appliance that sits in cupboard and you have the read the directions again by the time you finally use it again or you don't use it at all. So, it took me a bit before I took the plunge, AND I AM SO GLAD that I did! I am very pleased to report that this appliance is WONDERFUL! I am especially enjoying it for making Indian curries. I have for decades, stood over the stove, for hours at a time, doing the necessary process for making the rich delicious curries handed down to me by my Indian family and now I can get the same results in just minutes. I have always loved cooking, but with the family gone and now it's just the two of us, I have lost some of the joy, I am slowing down and would rather spend less time in the kitchen but still desirous of good food, the kind that usually takes effort. The Instant Pot is cutting that time down by hours. What took 4 hours is now 40 min and that includes only 10 minutes of my standing over the pot adding and sauteing. The rest of the cooking time is done by the Instant Pot. My husband is so pleased as he loves Indian food and now, we can have it more often. This appliance is easy to operate; the size is ample for the two of us but also to feed company. It is easy to store, and best of all clean-up is a breeze!

I upgraded from Instapot Duo to the Pro. The fact the Instapot Pro has handles makes a world of different. On the Duo it is was a pain pulling the pot out and straining it while hot. On top of that it inner-pot of this "Pro" has a heavy bottom making a great is steel pot, so it just work like a normal pot on the stove top giving me the options in using either the electrical device or on the stove top. When in doubt get the 6 qt, is fits most things for a 1-4 person household (I'd argue even 6). Might not hold a Large whole chicken, but I manage by being able to breakdown a whole chicken (it isn't hard, just watch a video) I cook professionally. But at home the Instapot is the best appliance I've gotten. I make Bean from dried at a fraction of the time, amazing quality fresh stock that doesn't require me to to wait 8 hours on a stove top, it takes the place of crockpot, rice cooker (*), and a normal pot. Stews, Gumbo, Chili, and Braises are done greatly when you are pinch for time making what would normally for 5 hour is only an hour or two and near same quality. Which has saved me during a dinner party where my sous dropped braised short ribs 2 hours before plating. It is an investment but if you eat (or plan to eat) legumes/beans, and you use stock/broth occasionally or consistently in your diet. This will save you some money and time while giving you a better product than store-bought stock/broth and canned beans. Both the beans and stock you make freeze well, and cooked frozen bean reheat/thaw fast. And if you freeze veggie scrap (like onion skin, carrot/parsnip peel, celery tops and bottoms) as well and save bones from you chicken (rotisserie, chicken thigns, or whole chicken) you can make stock with all the stuff you were going to throw way anyway. Better than store bought while also being basically free. Lastly it is great for meal prep and you can set it to have your ingredients in it before leaving to work and being done by the time you get home from work. If you cook consistently for yourself and/or for loved ones, or want to cook more at home. An Instapot makes thing easy at a press of a button, and the Pro has very convent features (like HANDLES I cant praise enough!) that make life much more easy. When you get one you will ask also ask "Why didn't I get one sooner?". I work late nights and early morning, this gives me more time and saves me from eating out. ~*I've mentioned "rice cooker" and I want to expand on this.~ The Instapot works great as a rice cooker but compared to an actual rice cooker, it is a little slower to cook (20min vs 30-35min) and the rice (especially short-grain/sushi rice) builds starch and stick to the stainless steel pot, requiring a slight bit more finesse to clean. I personally eat rice (and grains) consistently and i like saving 10-15min of what little time I have at home, so i have both a cheap rice cooker and instapot. However if you want to minimize your appliances (i.e. have less "appliance clutter") and need to conserve space in your kitchen, then having just an Instapot will work well enough and do every thing a rice cooker can, plus much MUCH more.

Admittedly, I am a Ninja fan, and have been using a Ninja Foodi OL700 for the last 3 years. I have loved the versatility of this pressure cooker since it has only one lid and functions include Steam and Cook, Broiling, and so much more. Alas, my beloved pressure cooker has been giving me an error message that, according to customer service, indicates the circuit board is going. Although I will continue to use it, I know it is dying and have been on a mission to find a replacement for it. Since the available Ninja Pressure Cookers have 2 lids, I don't want to have to store a separate lid. I did research a number of different pressure cookers and the options they provided, but none of them met my basic requirements. Since Instant Pot is a known and trusted brand, I found this pressure cooker. Granted, it doesn't have all of the functionality I had gotten used to, but it would accomplish most of the tasks of a pressure cooker with the options that are important to me. In my testing, it preheated for both steaming and pressure cooking in about 8 minutes which is faster than others I tested. So, what do I like about this pressure cooker? 1) The stainless steel cooking pot is easy to clean and doesn't stain or wear as the cooking pot provided for the Ninja OL700 pressure cooker. This is a definite plus over the Ninja pressure cooker. 2) The cooking pot has handles for removing the pot from the pressure cooker. This is definitely a plus as most pressure cookers, including Ninja, require heat-resistant gloves to remove the pot from the cooker. 3) The handles on the insert pot also hold the pot in place for stirring. With other cookers, you have to hold the pot with heat-resistant gloves when you stir the contents so that the pot doesn't spin. 4) I use my pressure cooker for steaming vegetables I grow at least 2 times a week. Some of the pressure cookers I found steamed under pressure. This pressure cooker does not steam under pressure. So, a vented glass cover can be used for steaming. This makes cleanup easier as the pressure lid is more difficult to clean and dry than a glass lid. I bought the vented glass lid to use for steaming in this unit. In addition, you don't have to empty or dry the condensation collector when using a lid for steaming since the steam and water stay in the pot. 5) The sauté' mode of this pressure cooker allows selection of multiple levels of heat whereas other have only low or high as options. Since I often make gravy using roast dripping, I have found that low is too low and high boils. Since gravy requires simmering, neither if these options works. I like that I can select the heat level I need with this model. 6) Settings are retained for each function. So, you don't have to reset setting when using the same function multiple time as I do for steaming large batches of veggie greens. 7) Preheats faster than other units I tested. It took about 8 minutes to preheat for both steaming and pressure cooking starting with cold water. I appreciate that I don't have to use preprogrammed settings when I don't need to, and when I do, the settings are easily changed. Overall, I am happy with this pressure cooker. It doesn't have all of the functions my Ninja Pressure Cooker has, but it works for what I need, and it is the best I have found. UPDATE 08/10/25: I have been using this pressure cooker for about 4 months, and use it almost every day and sometimes twice in a day. I have grown to love this pressure cooker even more than my beloved Ninja pressure cooker. It lacks some of the functions of the Ninja unit such as air frying, but I have multiple ovens that air fry. My primary uses for t pressure cooker is for pressure cooking and steaming. The stainless steel pot is so much nicer and easier to clean than the non-stick pots, and it doesn't stain or wear out as the non-stick pots do. For steaming, I have the cover that fits the pot, so I don't have to clean a pressure lid. The handles on the pot prevent the pot from rotating when ingredients are stirred, and facilitate removal of the pot without heat resistant gloves. Multiple levels for the sauté mode are so very useful for making gravy from the drippings of a pressure cooked roasts which are cooked to perfection vs. other methods of cooking. I could go on and on about what I love about this pressure cooker. I can only say, if you are looking for a great pressure cooker with a lot of functionality, this is the one to buy. I hope this review was helpful for you.

Goated! Got it on sale for like $100, very nice and easy to use. Make sure to set your favorite settings so you can just press a button to quickly set it up. I usually use this to slow cook stuff overnight and mostly use the high pressure setting. I dont have to monitor or release the air, this thing just works great for me. Fast cooking with high pressure. 6 quarts is good size for me.

Produto ótimo. Panela interna de inox que pode ser retirada e usada no fogão. Facilita limpeza e vai durar para sempre. Faço iogurte em potes em banho Maria toda a semana. Pasteurizei ovos inteiros com a função sous vide. Silenciosa quando usa pressão, que funciona maravilhosamente.

After my previous Instantpot stopped working one day. It was time for a new one. This one I chose as it had sous vide function. I have used this function twice now. I am quite impressed with it I must say. This Instantpot has ten functions. It is bigger than my precious one at 8qt. While I don’t cook for many I do not regret choosing the bigger version. What I enjoy about this particular Instantpot is the following: -The steam release is so much more easy to use. Just slide down to open and slide up to close. -The stainless steel liner with handles is the best update to this device ever. Silicone handles make it so easy to remove a scorching hot pot. -As with my previous pot this one has the dial to adjust time, temp and such. So easy and handy. -the cord is attached rather than having to plug it in the pot each time. As of yet I haven’t use this Instantpot for anything else. I can’t imagine it be any less than my other Pot. One thing I can think of that I’m not so impressed with: -There is a small slot to slide one thickness of your cord in the back, to hold it. It is fairly useless as being able to hold more cord would have been so much more useful. Even a nice Velcro strap to fold the cord up would have been so much better. Is this InstantPot worth buying? It is in my opinion a solid buy. It has more than one use and is a well built product.

Product was working fine till unexpected malfunction happened. The Tokion team was then extremely helpful. Provided me multiple options for repair through warranty and when all solutions were exhausted, full refund was issued upon shipping back the item
