Say hello to the multi-functional machine of your dreams, the Instant Pot duo.

This feature-packed gadget combines a bunch of functions into one easy-to-use appliance, including pressure cooking, sautéing, slow cooking, rice cooking, yogurt making and so much more. The Instant Pot Duo can remember the way you like to cook, and which smart programmes you use most often, so you can “set it and forget it”, freeing you to do other things while your dinner cooks safely and quickly.

In our review of the appliance, our tester said it is a great option for anyone that’s new to pressure cooking and wants a gadget they can rely on for batch cooking stew, preparing perfect rice or keeping curries warm. “It’s an absolutely brilliant piece of kitchen kit you won’t regret giving countertop space to,” they said.

“It’s well built, easy to take apart and dishwasher friendly and the controls are intuitive, albeit basic. Plus there’s a whole army of Instant Pot fans online who will share tips and tricks, recipes and results with you.”

“Where it really scores over other models is that its lid can also grill, bake or air fry contents,” our reviewer wrote. “The smaller, lighter pressure-cooking lid twists on and off but the ‘crisping’ top stays hinged at the side to be lowered as needed.
