We have owned an original instant pot for years and are very happy with this new duo crisp! I like that the steam release doesn’t shoot a geyser of hot steam into the air. The digital interface is really easy to use. The exterior remains cool to the touch (mostly) which is great for a house with kids. The air fryer part, is a nice feature but does not compare to a traditional version. It’s not easy to just shake a basket, and we felt didn’t cook very evenly. But even using as just a pressure cooker it is still a great appliance for our home.
