Instant Pot - Duo Crisp with Ultimate Lid Multi-Cooker + Air Fryer, 6.5 Quart - Black

This is the easiest instapot to use. I love the app too. You pick a recipe on the app and follow it. Then click the button on the app to start cooking and the app sets the pot and does it all. Set it and leave it. Of course you can do it manually too. This is a keeper.

Must have for a kitchen. Only down fall is the space for airfrying is rather small if you are trying to even the foodnout in one layer. When required to shake or flip food mid fry, you have to use thongs and manually do it as the pot is too hot.

I have been using it every day since I bought it, and I am loving it. The pressure cooker is silent, it is not heavy (I have a small kitchen and I have to nove it around, so the light weight is perfect), this was a great purchase.

Having previously owned other two models of Instant Pot, the first thing I’d like to compare is the inner pot that in the previous models like Ultra or Duo Evo Plus, were considerably more robust and even heavier, despite it is told to be all made from the same 304 stainless steel. This Duo Crisp is noticeable more powerful than the aforementioned models, with its 1500 Watts and filled of useful features, so it is faster and more efficient on daily meals like rice, beans, potato and meat, but on the Air Fryer side it is more of whistle & bells. Truth be told, it is nice to have the ability to make a crispy lasagna, a golden mac & cheese or a shiny chicken just by pressing a button, mainly, if like me, your kitchen lack of room - the Duo Crisp can do the job. If you’re an Air Fryer power user, you could be better served with Vortex or my favorite, the Omni Pro. The problem I perceive on the Instant Pot is that in the same measure they improve the pressure cookers its materials suffer getting lighter, thinner and even fragile and I’m afraid that it’ll compromise the product’s lifespan.

Be aware. It is hard to get its accessories. I really like this product. But I could not find any accessories, such as inner pot, seals (super important, since you need to replace it after a couple of years).

Great product so far really like all the different features. Lots of food cooked especially using the pressure cook. Air fry feature worked well and almost directly after using the pressure cook feature. Dehydrate is awesome, bake and broil.

I absolutely love the fact that i can air fry and pressure cook out of this unit with just the click of the button! Previous models, you had to swap lids or have 2 different appliances! It works beautifully for my family if 8 and i still have leftovers afterwards with the size of the pressure bowl!

This IP does it all from sauté' to bake to broil. It has a hinged lid. The biggest problem for me. If you have an island, go for for it. I do not. I have a small kitchen and have to pull the machine from under the counter to use it. For that reason alone, I wish I would have purchased an IP with a lid that comes off and on. Another factor to consider with The IP Duo Crisp with Ultimate Lid is you cannot change the seal. Other IP's you can change the silicon seal and use one for savory dishes and one for sweet dishes. The seal tends to absorb orders. Otherwise, I love using the Instant Pot for cooking--I love the IP recipe app too--step by step instructions! Another fault I noticed is the lack of a specific manual for this pot. However, there are a lot of resources online. I have found the answers I need regarding trouble shooting codes and product demo's on U-tube are very helpful.

All in one cooking magic, works amazing. The pressure cooking feature is so fast and then add the roasting feature for crispy delicious meals.
