Techies like us, love having Bluetooth accessibility! Great InstantPot!
Our original InstantPot just “bit the dust.” We LOVED having it and it produced many, many wonderful memories meals for us.While we mourned the passing of our “Old Faithful” InstantPot, I decided to start researching other electric pressure cookers and again, we came back to InstantPot and wanted to see what options they had. After reading all of the reviews and articles on this particular model, I told my wife ‘PLEASE, PLEASE get me this one for Christmas!” She said, you can go ahead and order it but you’re not allowed to open it until Christmas! Like anyone, I said YES!!!!I opened it and then downloaded the app being that it is Bluetooth compatible. I cannot tell you enough, what a pleasant surprise it was, to see just how easy it was to set up and connect via our home WiFi. I can now use the app to set the time, the release time, etc. It’s amazingly friendly to use and works great. One thing I will tell you is that if you, like me, use the Saute’ mode, to first brown meat, you can NOT start hte InstantPot in this mode via the app. You must physically hit the start button in order to have the Saute’ mode come on. Yes, you can set it up in the app but cannot physically start the InstantPot in this particular mode. I know I”m repating myself but I want to make sure that everyone understands this. To me, it’s a safety feature and I can appreciate why it’s done this way. The last thing you want to do is to accidently have your InstantPot start in this mode while you’re away or remote.PROS: Excellent quality, every time I turn it on, it immediately conects to the WiFi and can be accessed via the appCONS: None noted at the time of this review.

Beautiful upgrade
*died after 2 years* bah. Some kind of c3 error? Ain’t nobody got time for that!I had a IP Duo with the air fryer lid for a while which worked pretty good. I bought an air fryer countertop oven recently so I decided to upgrade my IP too.I would suggest testing the machine out within the return window and not leave it sitting around… otherwise you’re stuck with an expensive machine that you can’t return if it’s faulty!I was so excited to try this out but the first IP Pro Plus I received was faulty. It didn’t pass the water test. It was heating and built pressure and locking however the machine just kept reading pre heat and wouldn’t Indicate where it was in the cooking cycle and just read ON. I’m thinking the pressure sensor was broken. I contacted IP to see if there was anything I was doing wrong but no answers. I’m not a newbie with the IP as I’ve used it for years… So rather than wait for a response I just did an easy exchange through Amazon.I’ll admit, I was slightly disappointed that *gasp* I got a faulty machine and had already gave away my older IP and had major regret. I usually have good luck with my appliances working with no problems out of the box.Now, I’m not an IP worshipper. I don’t find many of the dinners made in the IP that appetizing because they all look mushy. I’ve tried to be a dump and go slow cooker/IP cook but…. Just not my type of food. I won’t be trying to master a lasagna or a cake in this thing as I can do that in my oven because why complicate things? (Maybe for someone who doesn’t have an oven?) I definitely understand why busy people love it though and there’s nothing wrong with these IP meals. I did try a American Goulash recipe yesterday and that actually came out great.This IP definitely has its purpose in my kitchen though for things that take a long time to cook. I use my IP for making beans, bean soups, pea soup and for when I’m making Birria or Barbacoa (tough cuts of meat). These types of food take hours on the stove and I can set it and forget it and don’t need to be home.The replacement was sent right away and I had my fingers crossed. I preformed the water test and it passed with flying colors. Phew! 😅This model is so shiny and beautiful. I have no trouble seeing the control panel as some users may have mentioned.I love the touch screen and the automatic pressure release settings! The shiny surface resists fingerprints impressively well. How did they do that?What initially compelled me to get this was the wifi feature. I could check from my phone the progress of the cooking or even change or cancel if I needed to. I’ve never really needed to do this however… but now I CAN. I’m not exactly sure how much I will be using the app recipes though. I also liked that the control panel wasn’t crowded with pre sets. I found that in the older models that the pre sets were inaccurate and confusing and I ended up doing the manual setting anyway.I love that you don’t need to touch the steam valve now! You control it through the control panel.The first thing I made in the IP Pro Plus was yogurt. I had never made it in my IP in the past (which I was missing out on) It was truly effortless and I will be making it regularly. I just ordered a backup pot for when the pot will be in use because the yogurt process is so long.So far I’m loving how pretty they made this and it looks high end on my counter and it works exactly how it should.FYI*Nutriboost Feature*I tried this out when I made my beans and the setting is supposed to “stir” the food somehow. I think it boils it in bursts (or somehow?)So during the last 15 mins of cooking it will start doing the nutriboost process and that will involve the cooker to pulse steam every 5 or maybe 10 seconds for the last 15 mins of cooking.

The instapot pro Plus overheats on the yogurt settings
I purchased this Instant Pot to ferment dairy. Although, I enter the settings for the temperature it over heats. When I enter the temperature for 107° the instant pot heats up to 121° to 114°. These temperature kills off the cultures for the yogurt. I tried to readjust the temperatures by entering 105° and the pot still over heats up to 114°. The cultures cannot be heated above 110°. I only wanted this instant pot to make yogurt. I assumed the special yogurt setting would be ideal for yogurt making, and it is not. So this Instant Pot is just a complete waste of money. Also, I am not a fan of the Wi-Fi capabilities. I assume that I would be able to monitor the heat set settings via the Wi-Fi control. I am not able to do this.The other issue that I am having with this company is they refuse to return my messages. I have called and sent emails, several of them. They ghosted me each and every time regardless of the stream of communication I used. This Instant Pot is still pretty new. I think it’s only about 3 months old, at the time of me writing this review. This only means that Instant Pot will not honor the manufacturer’s warranty by not contacting me. In order for me to get this appliance repaired, I have to use my extended warranty for an Instant Pot that’s only 3 to 4 months old. I don’t trust them, and hopefully I will never make a purchase from them again.

Better Features than Older Models – But Several Important Differences
This is my second instant pot. My IP Ultra model recently died so I had to upgrade. Here are several important differences from previous models:1) The inner pot has two hand holders – this is great because the previous models would swirl around when stirring. This new version prevents that from happening.2) The cord is not removable – not a huge deal, but wondering why they would make this change. The cord is located in the back left corner. So plugging into an outlet on the back right made for a strange bend in the cord. Wondering why they can’t simply place the cord in the back middle. Not a deal breaker for me, but you should be aware of it.3) Steam valve: this works a bit differently than other models. No way to manually vent or release steam. It has to be done through the control panel. It is possible to change the setting mid-stream, but there is a delay of a few seconds once you input on the control panel.4) Older IP accessories may not work – I used to do Pot-in-Pot cooking with a 2 level PIP on top of a trivet. This worked fine in my Instant Pot Ultra. But the first time I tried it in my IP Pro Plus, the pin got stuck, and the lid locked closed. I couldn’t open it because the pin needed room to clear. I managed to figure a way out to open it by turning the pot upside down. But this new IP seems to have a slightly lower clearance. So you’ll have to use a shorter trivet, or a shorter PIP. Otherwise your lid may get stuck in locked mode.The bluetooth/wireless feature seems nice, but I tend to use the pot while I’m at home anyway. So I’m not sure how helpful it will be over time. But you do have the ability to turn on the IP while you’re away from home. It involves downloading an app and connecting your IP to the wifi. The phone app gives notifications when the pre-heating is done, so thats a nice feature.The other main reason I bought this was because of the pressure canning. You can fit up to 4 quart size mason jars to can food. This is really nice. Because of its higher temperature/pressure abilities, this IP can theoretically cook food faster vs older models. I haven’t tried it out yet.They also have a feature called “Nutriboost”. This is simply a feature where the IP lets out steam periodically. Food in the inner pot then gets agitated. If this is done periodically throughout, then the food gets stirred. Its good for things like risotto and dhals where you want a smooth consistency. Its a nice feature but the name is a little misleading — nothing about this boosts nutrition. It is simply a fancy way to stir your food while pressure cooking.

I like that the app has a “Timed Venting” option
Updated 12/29/24 – My Instant Pot timed venting wish has finally come true, so I just changed my rating to five stars. They added a new app option when timed venting is selected, so now you can choose the amount of time you want to vent the pot. It takes the guessing game out of using the timed venting feature. It’s the addition I have been hoping for ever since they added timed venting to the app.Updated 9/27/24: They just added a new notification feature to the app and I really like it. You get a push status notification when the pressure cooker starts preheating, then moves to the cooking cycle, then goes into venting mode and when it completes the venting cycle. It’s particularly helpful to get notified when it goes into the venting process in case you want to precisely time the venting based on what you are cooking. It’s a helpful enhancement.Original review – I have an older model 6 QT Instant Pot Pro and I wanted this new one for its ability to connect to wifi, so I can use the app to control it. I especially like that the app has an extra venting option that is not available on the panel of the Instant Pot itself. It’s a “Timed” option (see photo) that I actually discovered by accident when I was programming a cooking cycle. It’s not explained anywhere in the documentation or even in the app, but it’s very helpful when doing grains where I want it to natural release for a few minutes and then quickly finish the release without manual intervention. This is where the “Timed” option comes in. It seems to kick in about five to seven minutes after natural release starts. It varies, maybe based on how full the pot is, but since there’s no documentation, it’s just a guess on my part. It works great because I can be anywhere in the house and not have to rush to my kitchen to manually change the venting to quick release. I really love being able to monitor the progress from my iPhone and see when it has finished whatever cycle I’ve chosen.The cooking pot itself is different than my older model. It has two handles on it so it makes lifting the hot pot out of the unit so easy. I also like that it automatically seals itself when you lock the lid. No more manually turning a small knob from venting to sealing. That makes it foolproof. It cooks the same way as my older model, but these new options make it my preferred pot. It doesn’t have as many preprogrammed settings as my older model, but I never really used those anyway. I like to use the standard pressure cook option and choose the cooking times and the pressure and venting levels myself.I took one star off because “Timed Venting” is not a feature on the unit and it’s not explained in any documentation, but it’s offered as a feature in the app. I think they need to point that out somewhere and not leave it up to consumers to find it by accident or have to guess to see how it works.

This product is of excellent quality
This product is of excellent quality. It cooks very well and quickly, and the dishes turn out delicious. Food doesn’t burn in the pot. It’s very convenient to use, easy to wash and dry. I use it all the time and cook everything in it. I love this multicooker — now we even have two of them at home.

Excellent Instant Pot appreciate the WiFi connection.
I ordered this when it was ridiculously priced for Prime Days. I’ve wanted one of these for a while and this one with it WiFi connection is nice, easy to use and convenient as I can run it with my phone. The pot is so easy to use a caveman can do it. We are still getting used to the cooking speed and ability of this pot cooks as we are always (for right now) a bit behind the curve getting everything ready to eat at the same time. The pot is easy to clean with the nice option of being able to toss them in the dishwasher. We found the pot versatile making everything from chicken, to humus, to pinto beans for refried beans. The appliance quality is quite high, but we have only used it for about a week.
