The trouble is over because it can cook up to five different dishes at once. Just put the ingredients in the cooker and program it according to your wish. The steamer will allow you to prepare fresh vegetables within the span of 3 minutes and the potatoes can be perfectly steamed within 15 minutes. The stew will simply take an hour, and boy will your Greek yogurt taste good! What a great time saver you have in your kitchen, right?FEED UP TO 6 PEOPLE WITH ITS SPACIOUS 6-PORTION CAPACITY – perfect for easy weekday meals, family dinners, entertaining and even batch cooking The Instant Pot Duo Series uses the latest 3rd generation technology with an advanced microprocessor that monitors the pressure and temperature, keeps time, and automatically adjusts heating intensity and duration. Even the volume of food is considered, ensuring that your meals turn out perfectly every time. If you’re looking for an Instant Pot clone that’s a bit more affordable, this is a good option. The 6l capacity is enough to accommodate a small family whether you’re cooking rice, curry, soups or stews. Better still, the inner bowl is dishwasher safe, making it relatively easy to clean. For those looking to ditch the cooker in favor of something more daring and delectable, the Ninja AF101 is a dedicated air fryer with plenty to love about it. The fryer’s cooking range lives between 105 and 400 degrees, an ideal variance for keeping moisture baked into the foods that need it while allowing for a golden-crisp outer shell for grub like fries and onion rings. Our recent independent study has revealed that cooking with an Instant Pot uses 4.4 times less energy required than in the oven, saving energy and costs.*

Frying can be challenging in most multi-cookers. As noted by Pat Tanumihardja, author of " Instant Pot Asian Pressure Cooker Meals," the sauté function rarely hits the temperature you can reach on a cooktop, leaving a stir-fry soggy. Want to cook a little more? The Ninja AF161 takes the fundamentals of the AF101 but cranks up the size. Instead of a 4-quart ceramic basket, the AF101 sports a 5.5 quart version. That’s enough cooking space for 3 whole pounds of French fries. All-Clad might be best known for its quality cookware, but it also makes quality cooking appliances like this multi-cooker. The mirror-finished exterior will look classy in any kitchen and stunning on the buffet table.The temperature range of the AF161 also gets an upgrade. We’re talking 105 to 450 degrees, but that’s not all. The 450-degree blast is technically classed as Ninja’s Max Crisp Technology, a cooking function that ensures a hot, finished meal up to 30% faster (compared to the AF101). In addition to Max Crisp, you’re also getting air roast, air broil, bake, reheat, and dehydrate settings. It has a stylish look and is perfect for carrying around without any shame. The prestigious design and look is there for a reason! You can wave the trouble of carrying different cookers and steamers good bye. No need to overload your bag and bother carrying so many things to your destination. One is enough now. For features, the Duo Crisp with Ultimate Lid offers all the classics, with settings for pressure cooking, slow cooking, sautéing, steaming, air frying, baking, grilling, roasting, dehydrating, proofing and yoghurt making – while its new sous vide mode helps it stand out from the crowd. Performance wise, it produced some very impressive results with many of these settings, with the Duo Crisp’s air frying, pressure cooking and sautéing drawing particular praise. Overall, we found the Instant Pot Duo Crisp difficult to separate from the brilliant Ninja Foodi 11-in-1 SmartLid, aside from the former being a touch more affordable.

All of the best multi cookers will have preset functions for slow cooking, baking and either rice or steaming. Some multi cookers, such as the Instant Pot and Tefal All-In-One, can also pressure cook. These are a good option if you cook a lot of meat joints and want to achieve slow cooker-style tenderness, but don’t have time to wait around. The best-selling Instant Pot Duo multicooker not only replaces 7 appliances but also speeds cooking by 2-6 times and saves up to 70% of the energy used in traditional cooking methods.

Katya is a big Instant Pot fan after being a hardcore skeptic for years; she loves that cooking beans, lentils, risottos, and stews in her multi-cooker takes less time and effort than on the stove.

Keep Warm, and Pressure Cook Most multi-cookers hold 6 quarts or less, but this cooker gives more cooking space with a 7-quart cooking pot. It has four cooking functions: slow cook, roast, brown/sauté, and steam, so it’s great for all types of cooking. Even better, all functions except steam can be customized. Make sure to select the 7-quart version if you're going for the large-capacity option, as it comes in 3.5, 4, 6, and 6.5 quarts, too. It has sturdy handles for easy transportation and looks beautiful on a buffet line. You can take your time and have warm food at any time of the day! Is the Instant Pot worth the money?

The Instant Pot Duo is the best when you want a healthy, consistent cooking experience. You can act upon the “set and forget” idea thanks to the convenient gadget with customizable settings. It remembers the kind of cook you like and the smart programs you use on a regular basis. If you don't have room for a slow cooker, rice cooker, and steam cooker in your kitchen, opt for an all-in-one option. Comfee's stainless steel multi-cooker has six pre-set programs: white rice, brown rice, steam, oatmeal, quinoa, slow cook. There are also buttons for keeping the contents warm or delaying the cooker's start time so a meal is waiting for you when you get off work. It doesn’t offer you the 13 dfferent cooking programs or the convenience of 7 items. Instead, you will have to stand by the instant pot throughout the cooking period despite setting a time. If you go for this item, washing the pot will be far more challenging, and it requires a higher wattage of 1500 watts than the Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1.
