Anyone who has ever lived in a house with a small kitchen, understands what it takes to buy a new kitchen gadget. Over the years, I’ve always shied away from buying single-use appliances, no matter how affordable or great they seem. For a long time, I had been deliberating on introducing a pressure cooker to my kitchen, but as always, I simply didn’t have storage space.
So, when the Instant Pot IP-DUO60 multi-cooker popped up in our office desk as part of the review units, I was excited to give it a try. This kitchen appliance does the work of 7 gadgets. As a 7-in-1 multi-cooker, it works as an electric pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, yogurt maker, steamer, warmer, and sauté pan all in one.
Been using it for a while and here is my two-cents, but I can say that I feel comfortable each time I use, although I was initially confused on trying out its multiple functions. Mybe you can share you experience too, after using it.
