Instant Pot - Viva 6 Quart 9-in-1 Multi-Use Pressure Cooker with Easy Seal Lid and Sous Vide Program - Silver

My wife took it out of the box on Christmas Day and hasn’t stopped using it. It is not much faster than her regular cooking BUT she can put everything in and walk away. It is very easy to clean and use. The VIVA has many features that she hasn’t used yet but looks forward to. It was a great value for our money. She keeps it on the counter all the time, which means it is as important as the coffee maker!

Love to use my new instant pot. This is my second pressure cooker, but my first instant pot. I also really like using the sous vide feature.

As I write this I am savoring beef stew made in my instant pot. And it's excellent! Go out and buy one NOW!

Love making yogurt in my instant pot! Also love how I can proof bread with yogurt feature!

Great price at the time of purchase! It is efficient and fast! I fit really good in my small kitchen on the countertop. Love it!

This is my first pressure cooker and instant pot, had never used one as well so i was hesitant to purchase. I have been using this pot in replacement of the conventional stove and it proves to be easy to use and I love that you can use this pot to saute as well. Although there are a lot of functions, I have not able to use of them just because I have not tried it for any of my regular food recipes. I love making soup using this pot. It's a great item to use if you want to deal away with too many pots and pans. I use this for my regular cooking while I use an airfryer for anything that I need to fry. It was already late that I saw that another model can be converted to airfryer. At anyrate I now only have two items in my kitchen. The only con I see is you have to buy the accessories separately i.e. steamer basket, tongs etc which I believed should have been disclosed and should have been included the basic ones. If you are to cook many types of food at a given time, I recommend buying an extra inner pot so you can continue using the instant pot without downtime.

Bought this for my wife for Christmas and she loves it. Makes cooking much easier and definitely a lot faster. She cooks a lot of crockpot meals and this not only replaces it but also simplifies the process. The manual is well laid out and easy to understand which helps because it can be intimidating with all the options it has. So far everything we’ve cooked in it has come out delicious. My only complaint would be the time it takes to pressurize but considering the size of it, how quickly it actually cooks and how well the food tastes, it’s a fair trade off. She’s excited again about cooking thanks to this little piece of heaven. If you’re debating on getting one make the jump. You won’t be disappointed.

I purchased my first Instant Pot 2-1/2 years ago during Amazon's Black Friday sale. Big fan! Cuts down on cooking time with moist & juicy flavorful results! This Best Buy purchase was a Christmas gift for my bff. It was also the lowest price I've ever seen for this model at 59 dollars and 99 cents. The plan was for me to swing by my friend's one weekend and make a dish together. Being self-quarantined changed that plan, so I gave her a virtual cooking class this past weekend (she made kielbasa with cabbage, which took 25 minutes). What can I say? She took one bite and became weak in the knees - she's loved it! She couldn't believe the flavor that was achieved in such a short period of time. She's now a Insta-believer and is scouring the internet for other recipes to try for her family :) Just want to mention - please keep in mind that it takes several minutes for the Instant Pot to pressurize. Once it reaches the pressurized state, the 25 minute cook time begins. Once it reaches the cook time you've selected, the unit then begins depressurizIng - which takes another 5-10 minutes. If you don't want to wait for it to depressurize on its own, simply tap the Release Valve and step back because stream of volcanic proportions will erupt from the valve! The accessories I have ordered over time: Instant Pot Glass Lid, Steamer Rack and Silicone Lid. I highly recommend. BTW, I now own 2 Instant Pots, and have also purchased as gifts for my brother and sister.
