[quote=Anonymous]I love my instant pot, I use it several times a week. I think it's important to know two things. 1--it's not instant. It may say "set to 10 min" but between the timing coming to pressure and sometimes having to allow an extended release (like with meats). It takes longer than you think. It's still worth it because that time is completely hands off, you can even leave the house (it turns to warm when the timing is done).

Also I find it's better for meal parts than a whole meal. So I can cook potatoes for mashed potatoes, rice as a side, steam a cauliflower, cook beans, ribs, a whole chicken. The components come out better than everything in the pot in one meal. Soups chili's and stews are great in fall and winter. I would
Often come home from work at 4:30, throw in stuff for chili, then take the kids to their sports practices and come home to dinner, but I didn't have to remember at 7am. You can also sauté in the liner, so you can caramelize onions first and then add the other ingredients instead of having to add raw onions. It does take some practice, but it has been worth it for us.[/quote]
