Convenience, Simple as Pressing a Button
Instant Pot IP-LUX60 is a 6-in-1 programmable cooker combining the functions of a pressure cooker, saute/browning, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer and warmer. Using 10 built-in programs, your favorite dishes are within the reach of pressing a button. To tailor for varying tastes and food conditions, the programs come with 3 adjustable modes. Special features include 3 temperatures in Saute for browning or thickening, and 3 temperatures in Slow Cook to complete the tasks of a common slow cooker.
A 24-hour timer allows for delayed cooking. Automatic keep-warm holds the temperature of the food until you are ready to eat. It works as a perfect porridge maker allowing you wake up with a fresh made porridge.
Instant Pot produces almost no noise and leaks no steam. It traps all the aromas in the food. It cooks food without heating up the surroundings. It is truly a kitchen-friendly appliance. The 3-ply bottom stainless steel inner pot is extremely durable and leaves no health concerns of non-stick coating residual. The brushed stainless steel exterior is finger print resistant. Its elegant and durable industrial design makes it easy to clean and pleasurable to use for the years to come.
Dependable Consistent Results
Instant Pot IP-LUX60 uses the latest 3rd generation technology with an embedded microprocessor. During a cooking process, the microprocessor monitors the pressure and temperature, keeps time, and adjusts heating intensity and duration. Even the volume of food is also taken into consideration. The cooking programs have been lab-tested hundreds of times for optimal results. These greatly improve cooking result and maintain consistence.

Pressure cooker leaves color on food I eat plain white rice every day and always use a Japanese rice cooker ($150). For years I have wanted to try the famous Japanese “Pressure” rice cooker ($450), but could not bring myself to spend that much on just plain white rice (how good can plain rice be that is worth $450?). I bought this one because it is a pressure rice cooker and could do other dishes like a regular pressure cooker (I figure if the rice coming from this pressure cooker does not taste better than my regular cooker, at least, I can use it as a regular pressure cooker, so no waste here.). The pros of this cooker are:1. As a regular pressure cooker, it is much better than the conventional stove-top one. Very easy to use. Seals very well, no food smells before you open the lid. Turn off automatically, so if you forget and leave the house before it is done, there will be no explosion.2. As a pressure rice cooker, this cooker is better than my $150 regular rice cooker. The white rice…
Highly versatile and efficient appliance for the home ***Update*** May 19, 2013…we’ve now had the unit for a year and a half, and it still works perfectly. Virtually no issues at all. Cheers!Purchased 2/2012, so as of this writing, we’ve had this for eight months, and it works phenomenally well.I cannot say enough about the Instant Pot. My wife and I owned another unit from a different company, but it’s pot was made of aluminum (tied to Alzheimer’s issues) and had a non-stick coating on it besides. We wanted a stainless steel pot to avoid all this…enter Instant Pot.This unit works awesome, and we are fully qualified to say so. Not only do we have an “Amazon Verified Purchase” label on our review, but we use the Instant Pot 4-5x a week, literally. Probably 7-8x if you count making baked/sweet potatoes for lunches too. (Just a note…always look for “Amazon Verified Purchase” on reviews, and if you don’t see it, take the review with a grain of salt. Very few reviews of the Instant Pot were…
“Ladies and gentlemen – this thing is officially awesome” Pressure cooker veteran here – thumbs up on this one!I have owned 8 different pressure cookers over the years, including an earlier version of the Instant Pot as well as the now-ancient oval (90 degree insert inside, pull up, turn back and clip-lock) lid with weight back in Europe in the 70’s.This, so far, is the best pressure cooker I have yet seen.It functions as a slow cooker, as an above-average quality rice cooker and -let’s not forget- a really good pressure cooker.Disclaimer: we do still use our trusted Zojirushi rice cooker when a lot of things are cooking at the same time (and as far as stand-alone rice cookers go, Zojirushi makes the best, btw.)Back to the pressure cooker… Some of the software limitations of the previous Instant Pot were fixed (namely, having to push the button for each and every minute, with only a 60 minute maximum timer – that was maddening). This control panel lets you click&hold and very…
