    works great. i love that it has stainless steal pot inside ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and not the one with coating. we used to have a coated pot before, and the coating slowly peels, and i am sure went into the food that we cooked. Absolutely love stainless steel, and will not use a coated product again.This pot has many settings and many buttons, and i need to sit down with a manual to figure out which setting to use. I used the basic functions, and even though i am not technologically skilled, i turned it on and assembled it without any help.Very satisfied with this product overall.

    I spent weeks looking for reviews on this Instapot. I was on the fence about it and ended up going with the instapot pro crisp fryer 8qt. I’m very satisfied with it, but I stayed with that what if about the ultimate lid. I just came across your video and I’m glad I did. I no longer regret my decision and I value your honest review. Thank you

    I just bought this pot, and it's my first IP. I bought it for the sous vide feature, and am already using it several times a week for that. I use the sous vide feature to make fermented dairy, which is like a yogurt but contains a single strain bacteria that is fermented for a very long time, 36 hr, at very low temps. The bacteria are super sensitive to temperature, so the ability to set the temp is quite important. I learned that the last IP model that had sous vide was wildly inaccurate for temp, so for me that model was a no-go, but this new model is perfect! I couldn't be happier (see book by Dr William Davis, SUPER GUT if you have questions). Anyway, having a perfect fermenting device, as well as all the other IP settings such as pressure cooker, etc in one appliance makes this a win-win for me. I wish Instapot would advertise the sous vide feature better; it is such a nice feature.

      Arrgh, I am in the process of yogurt making and the machine will NOT display boil. Only pasteurize. I don't have raw milk. I need boil and it is refusing any order of button pressing. This particular lid design has no advice on line or experienced tutorials. ANY ADVICE? Oh thank you!

    I'm actually really impressed with this model. I love that you don't have to separately plug in and store the air fry lid. I'll also happy to see it has the auto and pulse release.
    Though, I'm still looking at the pro plus because I like the extensive features catered more to pressure cooking specific users.

    @phil7791 2 роки тому +1

    I'm not getting on very well with the air frying on mine. Everything is taking 25% longer to cook than air frying recipes suggest. The air circulation seems to be poor, I put an oven temperature probe under the basket and even after 15 mins it's was only reading 130c when set to 200c it seems to scorch the food on top before heating through to the bottom. Are all air fryers like this? I haven't tried any others to compare it to.

    This IP would be great for my daughter who is scared to death of pressure cooking. « It’s going to explode! » she said.

    I've had my eye on this and was wondering how it compared to the new Ninja model. After watching your review, I tend to agree with you on all points and that makes me sad because I wanted this to blow the Ninja out of the water. I love IP but I wish they would do better with the metal rack. It's truly annoying to have half of your food stuck on the rack when removing it.
    The feature of having only 1 lid was the initial draw for me. But you're absolutely right about IP not being a true 1 lid feature. I just wish the Ninja was a more aesthetically pleasing machine...I think it's just flat out ugly but I love the Instant Pot's appearance. So now I'm rethinking it all. Do I really need this from either brand? Probably not....I'll just stick with my original Ninja Foodi Pressure Cooker and the Instant Pots that I already have.

    Great overview! I love my Instant Pot Pro Crisp, but this would be a big pass for me. It's too small and I agree, that rack doesn't seem very good for air frying (though it may be okay for keeping things up when you pressure cook). I'd rather get the Cosori Dual Blaze for pure air frying and use my Pro Crisp for when I want to pressure cook and then air fry. I actually like that the lids come off on the Pro Crisp, but I can understand that other people don't have the space for the second lid. Re the instant release vs natural release - I rarely use the instant release, probably because I often make soups and meats that do better with a natural release so having it default to natural release works for me. I know you are returning it, but I wonder if it remembers the last time you cooked you used instant release, since I find it often remembers the last settings you used.
