Ok, hear me out. If you don’t have one, go get one. Wide enough to fit whole chickens and big roasts in it. Really versatile as far cooking modality. Pressure cooker, slow cooker. Sauté you name it. Love it!

It’s great when it works but after 3 months the error code C7 shows up and the machine doesn’t know when to shut off. I have trouble shorted everything and it still doesn’t work

So we got the 2 in 1 pot but the insode was too small in diameter. We got this one as a replacement and it is perfect. Also, the buttons are great and easy to use. We've used this product at least 3 times a week for dinner.

I have used many instant pots before this. But love the surface area of this one. Love the fact that it can sous vide large amounts. The quiet release is not silent, but much quieter than the other ones. Even though it has a larger interior surface area overall dimensions are not that much bigger than another one. Just need an aftermarket crisping/air fryer top and it would be the perfect all in one device you need. Only negative is the power cord does not detach from the device.

Best Instantpot Out of the Rest

Worth every penny. This instant pot lives up to every expectation and has improved capabilities all around. Because of the wideness of the pot, it is much easier to brown on sauté. I really really really love the quiet quick release. My kids love it also. Plus no more splatter or having to cover the quick release with a towel. No more burning hands from the steam. Just such a great investment. If you’re going to get an instant pot, get this one.

I love it! I'm so grateful they adapted the hight and width of this pot. The quieter pressure valve is a nice feature as well. I wouldn't call it whisper quiet as its advertised but it makes less noise than the previous models.
Only con: There is no slot to hold the top.

I highly recommend the new Instant Pot Rio Plus. It may appear less sleek than other versions, but it is well designed and easy to use. The pot does not have a non-stick coating, but is still easy to clean. The wider pot lends itself well to cooking larger, wider cuts of meat. It is easier to sear the meat on all sides with reduced risk of burning yourself as in narrower taller pots. The controls are intuitive and easy to use. The steam release button is easy to use and there is little risk of steam burns because it is on the other side of the lid.

The Instant Pot RIO WIDE Plus 7.5Qt 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker & Multi-Cooker in Black is a versatile kitchen appliance that lives up to the Instant Pot reputation for efficiency and convenience. With a generous capacity, it's perfect for cooking large meals or batch cooking for families. The multi-functionality allows for pressure cooking, slow cooking, sautéing, steaming, and more, making it a one-stop solution for various cooking needs. Its sleek black design adds a modern touch to any kitchen. However, some users may find the learning curve for mastering all functions a bit steep initially. Overall, it's a reliable and time-saving addition to any kitchen arsenal.

So easy to use and multiple functions! I bought this bc it tells me when i can open the lid and bc of how large the pot is. The pot turned off by itself bc i was going to burn my food, this is a smart pot! I also needed a pot large enough for a family of 5 and left overs. I use this multiple times a week. It's a must have!

Honestly all I wanted it for was the yogurt setting, but I use it for everything I can think of now. I have gotten rid th crock pot because this made it obsolete in my kitchen gadgets. It is not an everyday use for me but it is used 2-3 times a week.
It is easy to clean almost everything comes apart it can be fully sterilized.
This was a game changer for rendering tallow too.
The catch is treat it like a stainless steel pan when using the saute setting. After you figure that out it is easy.
