    I'll edit this review after more time but first time using it and it was preheating for 45 minutes. It was on the 3rd and final preheat progress bar and then it went back to the 2nd. Had to bring out the old crockpot to make sure the meal was done on time.

    A piece of JUNK!

    Updated to this IP after using prior for years with great success. However, to be honest, this IP is a piece of junk. The pot will not seal consistently, and, it never will move from pre-heat to cooking. Called the IP support line, they are just as bad as the pot itself, all they want to do is open a repair ticket. I will title this review...APiece of Junk!

    Pressure release switch stops working

    Within 4 months of purchase, the pressure release switch started having issues — it wouldn’t close all the way. If you’re buying this pressure cooker, make sure to get a Best Buy warranty so you can claim a replacement if it stops working

    InstantPot Duo Plus- Not Safe for consumption

    Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very Concerning Metallic chemical taste. I washed inner pot. I did 2 test runs before cooking some rinsed beans (newly bought) in water, with added salt and garlic powder. The cooking was completed fast. The taste was supper bitter, metallic and very chemical like. I googled to see what solution- there are multiple reviews saying the same thing, and how these taste doesnt go away. Thjs cannot be safe for human consumption, its that bad. I dont believe the 4.8 star rating anymore.

    This is supposed to be an improvement from its predecessor. It is not. It is not easy to use. It is not easy to learn how to use it. The customer support is awful. They have the temerity to ask for money just to answer a simple question.

    Bought this after the IP I used for years stopped working. The first time used for beans took longer than anticipated but didn’t think too much of it. Second time the unit will not heat. Garbage.

    It is not working properly. All of sudden it stops and rice is not getting cooked. Not predictable on when it works correctly. I ended up buying an another one which is a different model from Amazon.

    Worst purchase ever made. My previous 2 instantpots served 5 years each and this was a replacement to them. Its been more than a month trying all different options and it never cooked well with a proper setting. Now the return window is over and we already threw it.

    Not working. Instructions don't help me. I had the original Hot Pot and it was way better. My husband brough this home and it's basically decoration. It doesn't seem to heat up, even though the dials and reading say that it is. Overengineered, non-functional.

    When it works it’s great but we’ve had repeated issues with it not starting to cook and just sitting at preheating.
