Instant Pots make cooking at home so much easier. With Prime Day 2022's outstanding Instant Pot deals going on until midnight PT on Wednesday, July 13, now's the perfect time to snag one of these incredibly useful appliances.
One of the discounts you should consider is $60 off the Instant Pot Duo Crisp. Thanks to its impressive multitasking capabilities, the Duo Crisp has earned a top spot in several of our guides, making it one of our favorite electric pressure cookers, air fryers, and sous vide machines.
Instant Brands is also offering great savings on its other appliances, including Vortex air fryers. Below, we cover all the best Prime Day Instant Pot deals on Amazon and competitor websites.
Instant Pots are good to have around if you want an appliance that can sear, pressure cook, simmer, slow cook, and more. With the pressure cooker function, the Instant Pot uses heat and pressure to quickly cook meals that might otherwise take hours. For example, rather than waiting 8+ hours for tender, shreddable pulled pork, a pressure cooker can do the job in an hour. It also does an outstanding job making beans, hard-boiled eggs, stocks, rice, egg bites, and roasts.
The 6- or 8-quart models are best for most people. You might want to start with the 6-quart Instant Pot and upgrade if necessary. Yet, an 8-quart cooker is better if you mainly cook larger meals. In our testing, we didn't see a difference in performance between the two sizes. Larger pressure cookers are available, but 10-quart and larger models seem to be overkill for most cooking and not worth the extra space they take up.
The top pick in our best electric pressure cookers guide isn't an Instant Pot. With its roomy interior, user-friendly interface, and even cooking, the Crock-Pot Express Crock XL is our favorite multicooker.
Instant Pot branded pressure cookers have so many extra functions. The Instant Pot Duo Crisp does the job of a sous vide machine, air fryer, and multicooker at a much lower cost than having dedicated appliances for each of these functions. That's why it's earned spots in our multicooker, sous vide machine, and air fryer guides.
The Instant Pot DUO 60 is a solid choice if you just want the basic Instant Pot tasks of pressure cooking and slow cooking. It's our budget pick and typically costs less than $85.
