What shoppers are saying

This top-rated Instant Pot is a hit among Amazon shoppers, as it's earned nearly 29,000 five-star reviews. It's also received an average 4.6-star rating, making this one kitchen appliance that's well worth the investment.

One shopper praised the Instant Pot Duo Nova for its "versatile, multi-faceted functionality" and "great capacity" that's large enough to cook meals for the entire family. They went on to add that it's "very reliable, safe and efficient," and has helped turn cooking into a "pleasurable activity."

"Can't live without it," reads one five-star review, while another added that it delivers "all that it promises."

Another reviewer raved about finally joining "the Instant Pot craze" after turning to their new pressure cooker "almost every day." Though they did note that the overall cooking and prep time is "not that much reduced," the Instant Pot's greatest advantage is being able to "walk away" while dinner is being made.

Other reviewers shared that there is also a learning curve when it comes to using the Instant Pot, and recommended looking up dedicated recipes online to help get the hang of things.

The verdict

While an Instant Pot may require a bit of trial and error before you get the cooking methods down, it's a great tool to have on hand for busy weeknight dinners. You can set it and forget about it until the timer goes off, when you’ll end up with delicious and low-stress meals at home. However, if you're looking for a device that significantly reduces cook time, this probably isn't for you.
