I wish I had bought an Insta Pot when I got my Bella pressure cooker, but I think they do most of the same things. (I thought the name Insta Pot sounded too gimmicky ~ like Tennshootoe.)Who here owns an insta pot and what are your thoughts?
I want a rice cooker because it’s such a guessing game in a regular pot. I hear insta pots cook rice great and I’m curious how y’all feel about the other meals

That's what I think too. But there are so many references to the Insta Pot, recipes and such. It feels like it'd be easier in that regard.I heard David Venable (of In the Kitchen with David on QVC) say that they are the same.
I take it that Instapot is a marketing ploy to displace the negative connotations that come along with athe term "pressure cooker".
It worked on HBPW.
HBPW loves her Instapot. Took her a little bit to get used to it. Shes cooked about everything in it, except rice. Sorry Bill.That's what I think too. But there are so many references to the Insta Pot, recipes and such. It feels like it'd be easier in that regard.
But if nothing else, I love Love LOVE my pressure cooker for hard boiled eggs. Put a steamer basket in it, add a cup of water, the eggs, and set it for 6-7 minutes. I've yet to have an egg that didn't peel beautifully, including fresh eggs. It's crazy.
