Why I bought the Instant Pot IP-DUO Plus60 9-in-1 Multi-Functional Pressure Cooker, 6 Qt
Instant Pot IP-DUO Plus60 9-in-1 Multi-Functional Pressure Cooker, 6 Qt - I've wanted a PC for a long time and have done a lot of research. I was originally leaning towards the PPCXL because that's what my cousin has, but I did some more research and ended with this one, waiting until the Duo Plus came out. So, since I'm the 4th reviewer, here's some of the thought process I went through in deciding to get the DUO Plus and also some thoughts on the IP vs the PPCXL and also other considerations on accessories, size, etc. So far, I've only had it a few days, but overall satisfied and plenty of online support for recipes and helping you decide the post PC for your needs.**Why I went with the Instant Pot (IP) duo60 Plus -Three new preset buttons - cake, egg, sterilize. It also had the yogurt function which other IP do, but not some of the other makes.Large LCD Screen with Digital DisplayMute button for those beeps in the night when cooking yogurt etc.Plus / Minus button for both time and pressureKeep Warm Selector can be selected to on or off at anytime.Delay start of 24 hours and keep warm for 10 hours.Lid rest (right or left side)**Why I went with IP vs PPCXL -Food Grade 304 (15/8) stainless steel pot vs stainless steel with teflon coating. I felt I could scrub and treat the pot however I wanted and not worry about scratching and what utensils to not use. Yes, you can buy a replacement inner pot for a Teflon pot, but after I spend $100+ I really don't think I should have to buy a replacement inner pot. Some of the FB group users are fine with the Teflon pot, but there are also a lot of complaints, so it might be in the handling, but every Teflon pan I ever had eventually got tossed out because of the coating coming off.IP came with some of the accessories you pay for on the PPCXL. It had the trivet with handles, condensation collector, Rice Paddle & spoon and a couple intro guides/cookbooks.Free shipping for IP. PPCXL site wanted $29.99Buttons weren't quite clear on PPCXL site so it made me think they were hiding lack of selection on preset buttons. Also, confusing on what you were buying - regular PPC or PPCXL. A lot of their verbiage refers to PPCXL, but not necessarily when you go select your items for your shopping cart.Yogurt Button - The IP has this and the PPCXL doesn't. The IP allows you to bring the milk to 185 in the IP, cool to 120 (I will be using the quick cool method in the sink) and then put in yogurt mode for incubation (8-12 hours). The PPCXL doesn't have this and you wrap it and put it in the oven.Warranty on IP is 1 year and I went with the Square Trade Warranty for 4 years for an additional $14.37. No deductible, no hidden fees, no shipping, transferable. PPC has 60 day money back/replacement. After that up to one year you have to pay $24.99 for shipping. Their extended warranty if $15 for 3 years.Slow Cooker Mode had a low, medium and high heat button.IP has a + and - sign to increase or decrease the time. Others you have to select a preset and keep pressing to increase, you can't decrease time.Overall ratings - IP 4.7 and PPCXL 4.1. I read through a lot of comments by verified buyers and the PPC owners seemed a lot more upset with customer service. I looked through a lot of Reviewers who do this for a living or at least blog and they leaned towards the IP.I messaged with the PPCXL people online and you can tell they've been coached for answers knowing what their down faults are and not really answering the question or referencing what you know is a negative.There are more IPs on the market and most recipes are geared towards it from a "preset button" perspective.IP has a left and right handle that will hold your lid tilted.I belong to a Pressure Cooker group - there are a lot of complaints about other manufacturer's instructions, quick start guide, etc. Lots of issues with lids locking, not pressurizing etc and I really don't see this for the Instant Pot family of PCs.**Sizing -I measured my crock pot which was 6 quart, so that's what I ordered. It's an OK size for 2 people, but since you can only fill it 2/3 full when cooking under pressure you should take that into consideration. I figure on a roast, I will do the meat first, then veggies. The 6 quart will hold four pint canning jars for sterilization.**Accessories -What else to buy? I got the OXO Good Grips steamer with extendable handle and a pack of 3-IP Rings color coded (dark for savory meats, orange for desserts and I will use the clear for yogurt). I had read they were dishwasher safe, but not 100% as they might keep flavors.On my next order I'm looking at 2 cookbooks (IP Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook for $9 and IP Obsession for $12). There are plenty of Facebook Group pages you can join for recipes too and online reviewers. Just type in what you are making followed by "in a pressure cooker" or "in an IP". I'm also buying IP Silicone Mitts for easy removal of a hot pot since I will be making yogurt ($10).The only negative of the Instant Pot is you can't get a 10 quart and if I had a REALLY big family that would be the only reason, but basedon the above, I would probably just buy a 2nd Instant Pot.I hope this is helpful. I did a lot of research and felt the need to share it. I will update this as I use it and get additional questions.8/9/2017 update - I've been using my IP for a few months now. I use my steamer basket and trivet a lot. I make a "bowl" out of heavy duty foil and put on the trivet when making a whole chicken and it makes trivet clean-up easier. I bought an IP plain glass lid for slow cooker & yogurt mode. I don't use my extra rings cause I use my plain lid for yogurt, so no use to swap rings. I didn't get the silicone mitts. I realized I didn't need them. My inner pot doesn't get that hot on yogurt mode. I like the 2 cookbooks. I use Bar Keeper Friend to clean the pot. Still really happy with my IP-DUO Plus 60. I'm part of a FB PC group and I don't see complaints on the IP. Very happy with my purchase.12/29/2017 update - So on Black Friday I bought the 3 qt Instant Pot because I felt like I need to have twins. It's a great size and great forsides and especially my 2 quart of yogurt I make at least weekly, so it doesn't tie up my 6 qt IP. We winter in FL and I was able to "sneak" the6 qt into the truck and now I have the 3 qt here too. I made an entire Thanksgiving dinner for Christmas (Irma got in our way last month repairing) in the 2 pots. In future years, I'll prob just bring the 3 qt cause it fits better in my cabinets in the mobile home.

This review is going to be in steps, but I am impressed with the Instant Pot Duo. The most important factors of a good review are 1. packaging, 2. instructions, 3. shipping ( which has been less than agreeable ), 4. product customer service, and, 5. product performance and durability.
Of the first two factors, I am very happy that this product was well packaged and the instructions are easy to understand and very well written. Plenty of diagrams and pictures and warnings, but the reading must be done before attempting to operate this pot, if you want to become proficient.
And to answer anyone's question, no I am not a professional chef! I buy spices directly from the San Francisco importer for freshness which deals in pounds and put them in quart canning jars to keep them fresh longer. And my cabinet doors are off to eliminate opening and closing which is a redundant action.
So, for this first review, I am very satisfied with this product and hope to produce amazing recipes. I think all kitchens should have the right appliance to do the right process. One appliance does NOT fit all cooking situations and I will continue to add. Next is getting a good Instant Pot Cookbook which comes with the territory.
Stay tuned for the rest of my review; looking forward to a great experience. Thanks Amazon. I'll be back!
2nd review is ready.......Steamed Vegetables!
First, I love vegetables, not that I am a vegetarian, but the benefits of steamed vegetables are enormous! Yes!
I did Bok Choy, Chard, Red Onion, chicken seasoning, sea salt, garlic powder, fresh ground black pepper: 1.5 cups of water in the bottom of the Instant Pot, 2 minutes pressure cook, and beautiful. Next time, 1 minute because I like a bit of crunch on the veggies. But beautiful! Next Broccoli, Cauliflower, Green Beans, Asparagus, Collard Greens, Beets, Butternut Squash, Yellow and Acorn Squash, and any other vegetable that can be steamed! Since I love vegetables, this Instant Pot is a game-changer for Me!
See you in the next review! Happy Instant Potting!
This is my final review, and I think, as I have told many people, including a lot of men who are afraid to boil water, let alone get anywhere near a kitchen...............If you can read, you can cook! And this is a wonderful appliance to have in your kitchen, even for novices who can't boil water. After all, cooking is nothing more than experimentation. And it's meant to be fun. The Instant Pot does most of the work, all you have to do is read, gather the ingredients; read to set the Instant Pot, close the lid and press the appropriate button.
It didn't all come to me when I first started but gradually, after reading and following trusted advise from trusted people, I was having fun and soon started creating my own vegetable dishes. (I love veggies.)
It's not meant to be rocket science and with the availability of so many cookbooks, you'll wonder why you didn't sooner. That's it.
I love this little appliance for the convenience and ease. And there are so many functions to do the work.
It was my best buddy that convinced me to get one and I am glad I listened to him. He's been cooking for 40 years. No, he isn't a chef either but I trust his judgement! You can trust mine!

I'm very pleased so far, and am looking forward to modern pressure cooking, and to getting rid of my old school pressure cooker, my slow cooker, my rice maker and my stove top wok. I love that I've simplified my kitchen utensils and that my energy efficiency has improved too! And, by the way the bone broth was awesome, and improved over my old manual pressure cooker's result.
