Customer Ratings & Reviews

I was looking at the instapot brand to come inside with all the instapot recipes out there but I found this one has pretty much all the same controls and seems to be of much better quality works perfectly I highly recommend

Going to the Farmers Market on Saturday morning makes for amazing Sunday dinners. It's quiet and so easy to use! At times I just want to use this in the AM and get home from work and be all set for dinner!

This is an all around cooker for us. it's fast and easy to use and clean. quality made very sturdy. Just the right size and not heavy. Function bottoms are very easy to use and understand. Price was right also.

Very well made, very well functions. I love using this every single day to cook for my family. The pressure cook is a great feature to cook stuff quickly with the best results

I really had no desire for another space-hog small appliance, but I had Best Buy reward points that were going to expire and this came up on a Deal of the Day - so... I certainly wish there were more recipes and pressure cooking time guidelines included (thus only "Good" rating on Ease of Use), but I tried a favorite soup recipe. It was ready in a flash and delicious. But where was I going to store this blame thing? Out the door went my 1973 pressure cooker, which took up more space than this. Cleanup is so easy, too. I highly recommend this.

I purchased this on May and have used it several times. I cook goat meat, chicken, beans etc using the pressure cooking option and it works great. Cleaning is also easy. Excellent product.

I use this pressure cooker almost daily. It makes my life so much easier. Its easy to learn, easy to clean, and makes a meal so much faster to prepare and its always delicious. I would recommend it.

What takes hours like a good pot roast can be made in an Hour or less. The best part is set the timer and forget about it till it beeps! Easy to set up and clean, Loving it so far.

This is a new way to cook. I have heard all the hype about instant cookers, and I am very curious to see how well it works. The Ninja Instant Cooker PC 100 came in the big box – well packed. The owner's guide has three pages of "important safeguards" that you must read. (There are 54 items on those pages.) Since this is a pressure cooker, it is essential for someone who is not familiar with such an item to read all the warnings in the manual. Thankfully it is well-designed, and the lid cannot be opened under pressure. The old style pressure cooker is known to have exploded when the user tries to open it under pressure. This particular model comes with a stainless steel steam rack and an extra silicone ring and the manual suggests that if you make dessert, this can be used because specific food will leave a smell and most likely will change the taste of your food (for example you don't want your cake to smell like meat.) As with most countertop appliances, it is not half a very long power cord. It is designed that way for recent, so it cannot get in the way or can be tipped over accidentally. This is not something that a child should be playing with without supervision. There are a lot of recipes on the Internet that can be easily found. The main reason many people by instant cooker such as this is because it saves them time. Pressure cooker – especially for meat, shortened the cooking time to more than half and it seals in the flavor. The machine makes it easy because it is programmable and it's designed so it can be used safely – as long as you follow the guidelines and the instructions. One many new users will notice is that the pressure valve is loose. It is designed that way, and it is not broken. (This is why you must read the manual thoroughly.) I cannot stress enough that if you are one of those who do not read the manual, they are just too many things that this machine can do, and you will be frustrated. One particular warning is that when the pressure is released manually (and a lot of recipes call for that), the steam will actually hit you in the face if you are too close to it. This is not a nice cooling steam – it is boiling hot steam coming out from the top of that valve release. I actually used a spatula to open the valve but using a finger to flick that open will work as well (counterclockwise.) I do all the cooking at home for myself and my brother. (Disclosure: I am Thai.) So in general, I would make Thai food – my family owned three Thai restaurants, and I learned how to cook by watching them in the kitchen. I don't make anything that takes too long – mostly stir-fried, and once in a while curry dish, and soup/noodle dishes. I am not sure if instant cooker such as this would be suitable for a quick stirfry dish. So I give it a try – I cooked the meat first – using the sear function. It heats up quite quickly, and basically, I moved the meat around in some olive oil until it was fully cooked. (I used chicken.) Then I added chopped cabbage and turned it to pressure function for two minutes. (In the manual, it is recommended that cabbage is cooked with steam function – but I wanted to try with the pressure to cut the cooking time down. It came out fine – fully cooked of course. The pressure was released manually at the end of the cooking cycle. (If the pressure is released by the machine, it takes about 20 minutes or so to vent until the lid can be opened. The food will continue to cook and what this case, it will have been overcooked.) The machine beeps to let you know at the end of the circle, and I can split the valve to release the steam. Next, I tried to do it traditional American food, and I looked up the recipe on the allrecipes.com. It was the instant pot Salisbury Steak with onion and mushroom gravy. I followed the recipe to the letter, and it came out great. The actual pressure cooking was 15 minutes for the meat. It also works as a slow cooker. But I believe most people would buy this machine to save time. By the way, since the plot is made with aluminum and nonstick coating, the wooden silicone tipped or nonmetal tipped utensils are recommended otherwise you will scratch it. I can see how this saves time for a busy person. I also think it will work well for a single person who lives in a small apartment. You literally do not have to use the stove to do your cooking and with this machine, just about anything can be done. I still prefer to cook my rice with a traditional rice cooker though. The machine is easy to clean. The lid can be washed, and the nonstick pot inside, too. The device itself cannot be submerged in any water, and there are warnings on the machine and in the manual.

Bought this for my wife for Christmas. We used this almost 3 times a week during the winter. Super easy to use and everything cooked comes out delicious. I recommend this to everyone.

Love it .. been using it for months now .. does everything.. we use it as a pressure cooker the most but also it nice and big for slow cooker family meal

What I really like about my Ninja - 6-Quart Instant Cooker is the quickness and ease with which it cooks meals. Easy clean up and functionality makes it the perfect kitchen utensil!

I bought this as a gift for my cousin. She has used it several times now and really enjoys it. She likes that it is easy to use and the food prepared in it tastes great.

This is the best cooker. It pressure cooks so fast and easy it has made cooking so much easier. Clean up is a breeze. Looks great on the counter. Get one.

Have used this several times now. I honestly like it better than the original InstantPot with less settings. It does everything like it should and is easy to manage

This was such a time saver it was used to make a last minute dish for a party! It hadn't been used and worked like a charm right out the box. Definitely a keeper!!!

I have wanted one of these for quite some time. Purchased one a few weeks ago and we love it! My 12 year old even made a cheesecake in it! Great for quick meals

The Ninja 6 qt instant cooker has made life a lot easier in preparing meals. It is used often each week. Perfect purchase at a great price.

Ninja instant cooker came with a one day delivery. What a great cooker for the money. It’s change my whole perspective on cooking. Fast and Clean.

I already have a 6qt. Instapot, and decided to try a Ninja cooler. This pot works as good as the Instapot. I am very happy with this purchase.
