I'm curious about the Instant Pot too, but I think I'm probably not the audience for it. I have a slow cooker that works fine for me and an inexpensive rice cooker that I might one day replace with a fuzzy logic rice cooker. I've never felt much motivation to have a pressure cooker. I work at home so I don't have much trouble setting up an evening meal a few hours a day. All in all, it seems that people who want the benefits of cooking faster (i.e., wants the benefits of pressure cooking) are the target audience for the Instant Pot.

But, this weekend a friend who has one says she's going to show me what it can do, so I'll pay attention and see if I'm more persuaded afterward.
