Customer Ratings & Reviews

Having previously owned other two models of Instant Pot, the first thing I’d like to compare is the inner pot that in the previous models like Ultra or Duo Evo Plus, were considerably more robust and even heavier, despite it is told to be all made from the same 304 stainless steel. This Duo Crisp is noticeable more powerful than the aforementioned models, with its 1500 Watts and filled of useful features, so it is faster and more efficient on daily meals like rice, beans, potato and meat, but on the Air Fryer side it is more of whistle & bells. Truth be told, it is nice to have the ability to make a crispy lasagna, a golden mac & cheese or a shiny chicken just by pressing a button, mainly, if like me, your kitchen lack of room - the Duo Crisp can do the job. If you’re an Air Fryer power user, you could be better served with Vortex or my favorite, the Omni Pro. The problem I perceive on the Instant Pot is that in the same measure they improve the pressure cookers its materials suffer getting lighter, thinner and even fragile and I’m afraid that it’ll compromise the product’s lifespan.

Be aware. It is hard to get its accessories. I really like this product. But I could not find any accessories, such as inner pot, seals (super important, since you need to replace it after a couple of years).
