Don’t panic! I’ll decipher some of the error codes for you!īy now many of you have fallen completely in love with your Instant Pot and pressure cooking. I really think they’ve shot themselves in the foot as I fear many people consider purchasing an Instant Pot, see the 986 models (okay a slight exaggeration) and give up because they can’t figure out what model choose.You’ve prepped everything, you followed the recipe and all of a sudden your Instant Pot gives you an error. The plethora of Instant Pot models sold by the Instant Pot Company make choosing one a frustrating nightmare. Thanks to Barbara for this article on choosing an Instant Pot model. Barbara addresses this issue beautifully in one of her posts. For the vast majority of recipes you’ll need the Sauté, Pressure Cook, Start, Warm and Cancel Buttons.

Supposedly the Duo Evo Plus was designed after collecting user comments and suggestions about what features a new model should have.Īnd one final thought, don’t choose one Instant Pot model over another because one model has more buttons than another. If you don’t yet have an Instant Pot and can possibly swing the extra bucks, the Duo Evo Plus is the one to choose.

I now have the Duo Evo Plus and I LOVE it. As soon as I saw its features I wanted one.

My first IP was an IP Duo and wasn’t even tempted to upgrade until the Duo Evo Plus. I think it’s a game changer for the Instant Pot. I agree with Barbara on her recommendation of the Duo Evo Plus. Don’t forget the larger the pressure cooker, the longer it will take to come to pressure. I use it to make a side dish when my main dish is cooking in the 6 quart.įor most folks, even families, a 6 quart will make a dish that will feed even a pretty large family. I have a 3 quart but bought it after I had the 6 quart for at least a year. There are only two of us and our primary Instant Pot is a 6 quart. The only time I recommend a 3 quart is as a second pressure cooker. Sure you can halve most recipes but why need to? Also you may initially THINK you aren’t going to make some of the recipes that require a 6 qt but may soon really “get into” pressure cooking and wish you had the 6 quart. Why? The VAST majority of recipes online or in books are written for 6 qt. Yes that’s what most recipes call for but for very few dollars more you can choose a model with high and low pressure.Įven for singles or couples I still think a 6 qt is the best choice for one’s first or only IP. Though it’s the least expensive, the Lux is the only model I wouldn’t recommend. My thoughts…not disagreeing really just a bit of a different take.

INSTANT POT DUO EVO PLUS C8 PRO

The Pro model, which uses a combination dial and button system, is much more user-friendly, in my opinion.

Instant Pot Ultra: This is an older model, and I don’t love the all-dial control.

I don’t love it because it can be a little buggy and can overheat in saute mode, and we had a problem with the float valve breaking.

Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus: This model has been discontinued and replaced with the Pro.

However, I don’t love the pressure release system in this model, especially for cooking pasta.

Instant Pot Max: This model can go up to 15psi, which can be used for canning under very strict conditions.

But if you are shopping for a tech lover or see it for a great price, it could be a good choice for you.

While this is convenient, I don’t love the full touch-screen display. Instant Pot Pro Plus: This model connects to your phone so that you can read more about what’s going on inside the pot.Other Instant Pot models that we’ve reviewed but aren’t mentioned here include: The Pro Crisp has the flat-bottom, handled pot, redesigned lid, and easy-read display that the Instant Pot Pro has, just with the added benefit of an air-fryer lid. Read my full Instant Pot Duo Crisp with Ultimate Lid review or see it in action on YouTube. Read my full Instant Pot Duo Crisp (original) or see our informal review on YouTube. Keep in mind that the Ultimate Lid model is heavier than either the Duo Crisp or the Pro Crisp. If the yogurt button is a deal-breaker for you, the all-in-one Ultimate Lid is the only air frying pressure cooker that has that option.

However, the Duo Crisp offers the same cook settings for pressure cooking and air frying at a lower price point. I gave the nod to the Pro Crisp because I prefer the pot, display, and redesigned pressure cooking lid of the Pro Crisp model.
