We recently purchased a rice cooker from another company, I won’t name it but you might say that their art is cuisine. Rice was fine but it always boiled over. Washed rice, soaked it, didn’t wash, tried different brands, made a smaller amount, added butter or olive oil which is supposed to dissipate the bubbles, didn’t matter. We returned it and got this product (8-cup). It’s flawless. Never boils over, rice is excellent, simple to use. One thing to be mindful of is on the side under the hinge is a small white plastic water receptacle which appears to catch runoff from the lid when opened. Just remember to empty that every use or so. Couldn’t be happier and worth every penny! Truly set it and forget it, beeps when rice is done, cleanup is a breeze.

I finally used my Instant Dutch Oven today and made braised turkey thighs with onions, carrots, potatoes, celery, and fresh herbs. I seared the meat first, put it on a plate while I browned the onions, put the meat back in and added the veggies and broth. Braised it for 2 hours, It took me a few minutes to understand how the settings work, but then it was fine. Meat and veggies were perfectly done by the end of the cook time, and it all tasted much better than I expected. Rich flavor, and the sweetness of the carrots blended perfectly with the savory flavors. Soooo good. The instructions book gives you enough info, and the settings have enough flexibility, that you can sort of “do your own thing” with a recipe and not mess up your food. I was very pleasantly surprised. It’s soaking now, so I’ll soon find out how easy it is to clean. This is a fun cooking vessel and I hope my success with cooking continues (I’m single and don’t cook very often). I love cooking in cast iron and I love my slow cookers, so this Instant Pot Dutch oven is my favorite new toy. If you love to cook in cast iron and love slow cookers, you will love this pot!3/16/22 Update: It cleaned up well after I cooked the first dish, in my first review. I didn’t burn anything. The second time, I made a braised cabbage dish, and because I wasn’t familiar enough with the controls and tinkered with them too much, the cabbage took a looooong time to cook and eventually burned on the bottom. I was trying to slow cook on a high setting, but had to go back to the booklet to find out how. And the cabbage stunk up the house. This all took so long that I had burned cabbage on the bottom of the crock. I let it soak overnight and the pot actually cleaned up perfectly (I used a nylon scrubby sponge and dish deterg with a bit of ammonia). I was really impressed. I was a little too adventurous with that recipe selection. I won’t do that again until I understand this cooker. The stench cleared out of the house by the next day.

My husband is a bodybuilder and eats a diet of chicken and rice we use the rice cooker every day, and we have gone through a lot of different rice cookers this one lasts the longest. Last one lasted well over a year getting used daily and the inside pot being washed in the dishwasher. We purchased the same one because we felt it was good value for money and more durable than other brands we have tried.

This came out at a time when I was actively looking for a slow cooker. I didn’t really use a slow cooker before but I was interested in trying simple recipes where you can just add ingredients in the morning and then have dinner ready without further prep. Being busy with work often, this sounded like a great option to have available.I am glad this came out at that time and that I chose it. It has lived up to and exceeded my expectations.This is a very versatile cooking machine.Slow cooker – I think it works like any other slow cooker. Just press the slow cook button or set a custom temp and come back in 5 – 8 hours for a nice hot meal.Searing plus slow cooking – This is a bit of game-changer and a lot like the Instant Pot. You can set the temp to high in order to sear meats in the pot first and then lower the temp for slow cook. I sear and saute meats and veggies first and then set to slow cook. All in one pot and all very quickly.You can also simply use this as another burner when you are using all of the burners on your stove. I use it to simmer sauces while cooking other things on the stove.The controls are simple to use and very intuitive. Also, the control screen is just a glossy surface, very easy to clean.I also love that I have an extra cast iron pot that I can use in the oven and stove. Like I mentioned before, very versatile product.Last, but not least, it comes with rubber handles and place mat to pick up the hot pot and set it down on the counter. Nice touches.I have this and my Instant Pot right next to each other and use them both about 4-5 times a week to make various meals for my family. They are workhorses and I view them as my dynamic duo. They work well and save me time.

Wow, just wow. I got it today and ran a test cook. Wow, just wow. Braising has always been one of my favorite cooking methods. I have a ceramic coated iron dutch oven. Not a Le Creuset. They are very nice but over priced.At the moment I don’t have access to an oven. I’ve had and used an instant pot for a while now. When I first got the pressure cooker I wasn’t that impressed. It is useful and I use it often, but it is also extremely over hyped. So when this came out I was skeptical. Between the price at launch and my previous experience with the pressure cooker I wasn’t ready to pull the trigger, but remained intrigued. Now that the price is reasonable I got one.So tonight I did a test run with pork ribs. They came out magnificent. The meat is tender and browned all the way around. The braising liquid evaporated a little just like it does in an iron dutch oven in an oven. Concentrating along with the melted fat into a really really good sauce. I used the same recipe that I have used hundreds of times in the past. The finished product came out the same as it does in an oven. This is a device I will be using often.Some reviewers expressed concern over the rim rusting. For anyone with out experience with dutch ovens the rim is not glazed to avoid chipping. To avoid rust just take a paper towel and rub some cooking oil onto the exposed iron after washing before putting it away. To avoid chipping use a piece of flexible plastic the kind used as cheap table cloths or shelf liner. Put a piece between the cover and body of the pot while in storage.

I have used this to make beef stew, short ribs, pork loin, and several chicken thigh recipes, and chili and soups. It has allowed me to leave the house for a short time with no worries as it cooks. It was never my intention to use it as a rice cooker. It is heavy, but it’s a dutch oven.It has many cooking options and is easy to clean.I’ve given it as a gift after using mine.I don’t understand some of the reviews. It seems they may be reviewing a different product?

Love it. The inner pot seems to be very high quality, and the user interface is simple and easy to use. Have used it dozens of times since I purchased it and not a single disappointment. The pot is easy to clean and the temperature seems to be very consistent and well controlled.

I recently took the plunge into the mystical world of the Instant Pot Rice Cooker, and let me tell you, my skepticism was diced finer than finely chopped onions. But oh, how wrong I was! This contraption is like having a rice wizard in my kitchen, casting flavorful spells with every grain.At first, I couldn’t believe that a kitchen appliance could make such a difference in the rice game. I mean, come on, it’s just rice, right? Wrong! From the very first batch, I knew this Instant Pot had some serious culinary sorcery up its sleeve.The rice that emerged from this magical metal cauldron wasn’t just rice; it was an experience. Each subsequent batch somehow managed to outshine its predecessor. It’s like the Instant Pot whispers ancient rice wisdom to each grain, urging them to reach their full potential.But wait, there’s more! This pot doesn’t just cook rice; it turns your kitchen into a flavor battleground. It forces broth flavors into the rice like a seasoned general leading an army into tasty victory. The rice becomes a canvas, soaking up all the savory goodness, turning even the most basic grains into culinary masterpieces.And let me tell you about the basmati rice—I summoned the most amazing basmati dish that would make Aladdin jealous. The Instant Pot coaxed out the fragrant aroma and delicate texture of the basmati, transforming my kitchen into a Persian spice bazaar. I half-expected a magic carpet to appear, carrying my taste buds on a flavorful journey.In conclusion, I went from rice skeptic to Instant Pot disciple in a flash. The Instant Pot Rice Cooker is no mere kitchen appliance; it’s a rice alchemist, a flavor enchanter, a grain guru. If you’re still cooking rice the old-fashioned way, it’s time to level up and let the Instant Pot weave its rice magic. You’ll never look at a grain of rice the same way again!

I mean it when I say that this has become one of my favorite appliances. The one issue I have is when I make only one cup of rice—it comes out a little crunchier than if I were to make 1.5 cups or more.

You drop this by accident and you don’t have to worry about cracking it like the ceramic crock pots or worse. First thing I did was wash it out do a test run and wiped it out and made a killer pot of homemade chili man was it good. Next I’m I’m digging out the ham bone and beans.It sears up to 400’ degrees I was impressed with that. After searing and sautéing set it on low and 4 hours later I came back and it was in keep warm mode and it was counting up to let me know how many minutes it has been in the warm setting. I recommend this product. Too bad they don’t have a smaller version for a family of two. We still love it.
