Instant pot overall opinion
I have been using a traditional pressure cooker for more than 3 decades. Someone persuaded me to try the instant pot because of the rave reviews, ease of use, programable features etc. I gave it a shot for a few weeks. While it does work as fast as described, I found that the finished cook cycle retained most of the liquid of the meats/ingredients and ended up like a soup. Steam is not released during the cook cycle unlike a traditional pressure cooker so all the liquid is retained within the pot. I have since gone back to a regular pressure cooker.
