" ... I used it once, then the button doesn't work anymore. ... "
" ... The unit I have has a "Canning" function selection button. ... "
" ... The control panel broke after one month. ... "
" ... If I rotate the unit so the lid opens completely, I can't access the selection panel easily or nor access the pot easily to mix or sautee the food. ... "
" ... The instructions for the machine are lacking and if you try to convert instapot reopens, it is hard to do because the buttons/settings are not the same. ... "

" ... Even at 2qts, it holds enough for two full meals and a bit of leftovers. ... "
" ... This is very nice as other brands make you purchase the lid seperately. ... "
" ... They're both around the same physical size, so if you're hoping to save any counter space, the 6qt isn't really going to help. ... "
" ... It holds a lot of food and I always have leftovers and have never fill it past half full. ... "
" ... I really like the saute feature and the steam rack. ... "
" ... The insert is very solid and heavy, and it comes with a glass lid and a sturdy steaming rack. ... "

" ... Also the vent valve is not a great design, it is hard to tell when you have it in the locked position. ... "
" ... The vent hole doesn’t stay sealed which basically is the purpose of a pressure cooker/instant pot. ... "
" ... This fits the saying "Jack of all trades, Master of none" in that it doesn't do anything all that well. ... "
" ... I wanted to love this product, but after using it just once it no longer holds pressure. ... "
