Description
Insignia Pressure Cooker Product Recall. Nothing is more important than our customers’ safety, which is why Best Buy has voluntarily recalled certain models of Insignia pressure cookers and inner cooker pots in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada. The recalled pressure cookers have incorrect volume markings on the inner pot. This can cause consumers to overfill the pot and hot food and liquids to be ejected when the pressure cooker is vented using the quick release method or opened while its contents are pressurized, posing a burn hazard to consumers. Learn more and register for the voluntary recall at https://www.recallrtr.com/pc.

Q: QuestionIs this the same as an Instant Pot? If not, what is the difference?
Asked by Help.
- A:Answer I got this as a gift for Christmas from an instant pot fanatic. While there's some differences, over all they are minor. Most parts are interchangeable between the instant pot 6 qt and the insignia 6 qt, from the silicone O ring and locking pin ring to the lid and liner. Even the drip container on the back are interchangeable. The largest differences are the "settings" capabilities between the two. Both have manual settings that work very similar, which is what most people will use, but the instant pot allows you to custom set high, medium an low pressure where the insignia you don't have that option and high, medium and low pressure are determined by how long you're cooking for. As a rule, cooking instructions for the insignia is identical to the IP, but I've found that on rare occasions I've needed to prolong the cooking time slightly. If a recipe calls for a "range" like "cook cheese cake for 10-12 minutes" I'll always go for the longer amount of time. I'm a member of a couple different IP Facebook groups and any suggestions, recipes I've used from there work just as well. Just like the IP, the insignia has a "keep warm" feature as well as other popular features like sautee and presets like chicken and rice. Because of the interchangeable parts, aftermarket items like spring form pans, vegetable steamers and the such that are marketed for instant pot will work and fit in the insignia. If you plan on making yogurt, then the IP is the better choice of the two according to consumer reports article comparing the two, but every other side by side comparison resulted in identical results. On a personal note, I'm tickled pink with my insignia and use it several times a week so it's a permanent staple of my countertop. I rarely use my stovetop because it's capable of doing the majority of what I would use my stovetop for. I'm strongly considering getting another electric pressure cooker but will likely go with instant pot, not because of any issues with the insignia but because I'm tempted to try my hand at making yogurt. I've eaten some IP yogurt and it is really really good, but that's the only reason why I am considering it.

Q: QuestionSo does this come with some kind of getting started manual. Or recipe book?
Asked by Sfoss.
- A:Answer Yes there’s a booklet with instructions and a few recipes. But the instructions are very very poorly written and essentially worthless. They don’t match the utensil in the box and you are better off just following a recipe from a good cookbook for pressure cooking.

Q: QuestionI am thinking of ordering the insignia instant pot. Do you have to buy extra accessories to use the pot? I am new to this kind of cooking.
Asked by rockinrobyn.
- A:Answer No, the only accessory I have is a steamer basket because it helps to remove hard boiled eggs front the cooker. I also have the Instant Pot brand of cooker, and the insignia works just as well as the instant pot. I'm happy with both and use them all the time.

Q: QuestionHow do I attach the condensation collector?
Asked by Annie.
- A:Answer It took me A LOT longer than I'd like to admit to figure this one out, but it SLIDES in TOWARDS the stainless steel from behind. Hopefully that makes sense
