The new Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus is the latest generation of multi-cooker and your soon-to-be culinary best friend. With 48 customizable presets, it's a multi-tasking, time-saving, space-saving device that Sautés, sous vide, steams, slow cooks, warms, bakes, ferments and pasteurized — to keep you at the top of your game, and in control of your day. 48 smart programs — ranging from white rice, brown rice, quinoa, grain and risotto to ribs, beef, poultry, pork, beans, chili, broccoli, egg, yogurt, cake, pudding, seafood, cheesecake, pasteurize, sterilize proofing and more — put creating culinary delights on autopilot. With fewer pots and pans to deal with, cleanup with the new dish washable stainless steel inner pot is a breeze, too. Three customizable temperature settings across each smart program let you program your Duo Evo Plus to your preference. For example, with the saute function, you can set to simmer, sear or thicken for up to 30 minutes. For the slow cooker function, the three settings are low, medium and high heat. Bright display, easy-to-use controls and new easy-to-read icons that indicate cooking status make selecting smart programs, and making adjustments, simple — even during cooking. It also has both automatic and manual keep warm programming to ensure that dishes are kept at ready-to-eat temperatures.

I wasn’t looking for an adventure ...
5 out of 5 stars
I wasn’t looking for an adventure ...
I bought the “Evo Duo Plus” after our rice cooker died. I really just wanted a rice cooker; I didn’t want an “adventure” ... but I sure got one.Since we got this about two months ago, we’ve almost completely stopped using our stove.This thing makes MONSTER stews! We’ve tossed out the recipe books, and we just wing it now. Some stew-making hints. First, always cut and season the meat (Montreal Steak seasoning makes for easy seasoning and hearty final broth), then use the sauté function to sear the meat. We use the “Level 4” (out of 6) on the “Custom” selection on the Sauté feature. This sears meat well without too much smoke. And definitely try butter (instead of olive oil) and minced garlic when searing. Second, ALWAYS deglaze after searing. Otherwise you’ll get the dreaded “BURN” error. Third, experiment with the broth. Instead of just beef or chicken broth, we’ve used picante sauce, canned Rotell tomatoes, and even added dabs of tomato paste. The results were excellent. Fourth, cut up your fresh vegetables in large, square-ish chunks - not strips or small pieces. If the pieces are too small, they cook down to mush under pressure. And long strips tend make for spoon-unfriendly eating. We’ve used green peppers, red peppers, potatoes, broccoli, onions, zucchini, rice, groat oats, and even sweet potatoes in our stews. (Avoid frozen stew veggies ... they were terrible)Another huge hit while entertaining was Bourbon BBQ Pork Sliders! (Google the recipe). It’s raw pork loin pressure-cooked in bourbon whiskey and lots of spices, then shredded and placed onto Hawaiian buns with pepper jack cheese, and then basted in butter & spices and browned in a conventional oven. Unbelievably good! I would NEVER have attempted this .. until I got this Instant Pot!Another thing this does well is CHEESECAKE. I detest cheesecake, and had NEVER made one before getting this Instant Pot. But I had read on several sites that Instant Pot cheesecake was super-easy and (mostly) foolproof. And it’s true. It was so easy that we made Rolo-Nutella cheesecakes and Caramel Pumpkin Pecan cheesecakes as holiday gifts this year. (Google those cheesecakes for the recipes). They were a HUGE hit with the neighbors! (But I still hate cheesecake nonetheless). One pic is from a neighbor who served up our cheesecake at her Christmas dinner.We also did something daring for breakfasts. We bought a 15-pound sack of groat oats, and started making groat oats each morning. After the pressure cooking is done, we add a spoonful of canned pumpkin, a teaspoon of pumpkin-pie spice, and brown sugar (to taste). And we often add dried cranberries to the oats before cooking .. awesome flavor!One thing I don’t like - Instant Pot does not yet sell extra “inner pots” for this model. (Caution: the inner pots for other models supposedly do NOT work with the “Evo Duo Plus”).

I bought this 6qt after using my 3qt for 2 months cuz renovating kitchen and don’t have a range. It’s just 2 of us, but 3 qt was enough for the meal and not much left over. I saw this new version and liked the added handles on the inner pot, the flat bottom inner pot for use on stove and induction stove, and the position of the lock/release button.

I first bought at Bed Bath and Beyond to get 20% off, but it wasn’t functioning properly (spoke to IP support to confirm). I got a replacement from BBB and it was worse than the first one. Got a refund and ordered here on Amazon.

It gets to pressure faster than their other models, and feels safer. It has a sous vide preset button so I looked on Youtube to find out about this method. OMG, made the best Filet mignon I’ve ever had.

It’s very versatile. I’ve made great hard boiled eggs; the BEST yogurt -tastes fresh and clean; fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs; whole -chicken noodle soup; sous vide filet mignon, rib eye, porter house and then used the pot to sear it, beef stew; and baked a cheesecake that was wonderful (more like a cream cheese pie than dry NY style).

My beef stew typically takes 7 hours in a dutch oven to fully develop the flavor and tenderness and usually tastes better the next day. In the IP, it took a total of 3 hours. I thought I’d have to wait til the next day, but unbelievably the flavor and thickness were perfect. My ribs typically take 3 hours. IP 55 mins and are moister! Making yogurt with a cold start and 2 ingredients takes 8 hours and is so delicious and tastes fresh and clean.

There is a learning curve so check out Youtube, join the Facebook community, and enjoy. I’ve never been interested in cooking, but I am hooked and look forward to trying new recipes and cooking techniques. I don’t know if I even need the new 30” range I’m putting in my renovated kitchen, haha!

If you buy this, I hope you get a fully functioning unit and find cooking in it as fun and pleasing as I have experienced!

This IP is my second one and I absolutely LOVE it! My first was the DUO and I used the heck out of that one! The first one had some condensation or leakage, where it was sitting on the counter, so I felt it had its day so it was about time to get another one. I was gonna get the same, lower-priced model but then I saw this higher model for a really great price since it was used so I took a chance and I'm SO GLAD I DID! So far, I've used it quite a bit, steaming eggs, making soups and my new favorite cooking method: SOUS VIDE! I do believe SV is the BEST way to cook a medium rare steak if you plan ahead and have time (takes about 2 hours). You do have to enter about 3 degrees higher for SV method but since I know that, it's no big deal. For example, for a 130 degree steak, you have to set the SV temp to 133. Other then that, the temp remains consistent and my steaks have been awesome, edge to edge perfection! Even a thick 3-4 inch roast!!! My salmon and ahi tuna also come out perfect! Another great feature is the inner pot. It has handles that don't get hot and keeps the pot from spinning! I love it's an 8qt, also. I went back and forth about whether I should just stick with 6qt like before, since we only have a family of 3 but I LOVE the bigger size for bigger meats, etc. The display is beautiful and the knob doesn't bother me, like others have complained about. I LOVE how it closes the vent automatically when the lid is closed and how it vents better then the older models, too. This is the best IP, in my opinion. I wish I could get the crisper lid for this model but that's not a deal breaker. Overall, the BEST thing about THIS purchase is the price for it being used. I would NOT have known it was even used if it didn't state that.
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2020
I’ve been cooking with electric pressure cookers since before Instant Pots were a thing. My dad actually had an old stovetop one that terrified me as a child but the results were always delicious. So when I was living at almost 10,000 feet in Ecuador I realized it was the only way I could get some things made, like chuck roasts and pork shoulder and also, beans. Ultra high altitude cooking was quite an adventure! I came to rely on it so much that when we moved I kept regularly using it.
When mine died and I needed a replacement I did a lot of research. I knew about Instant Pots but since I used it so much I wanted something that offered a little more functionality and customization. Ultimately I went with the Breville Fast Slow Pro, a pricey model but it supposedly did all the things and did them better than any other. For five years it has been my workhorse, the thing I rely on in summer to roast meat so I don’t have to heat up the kitchen, for Thanksgiving to do the stuffing because I’ve run out of space, and generally just the thing that does it all, all the time. If you’ve eaten dinner at my house chances are you’ve seen it!
Now here we are, and my beloved Breville is having a hard go of it these days. It takes forever to get to pressure, the gasket is loose and the inner ceramic coated pot is scratched so it’s no longer nonstick. The jury is still out on whether scratched ceramic is safe. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I can get a new gasket but not a new pot insert. So on Prime day I decided to get a new appliance and I came across this guy, the Instant Pot Duo Evo PLUS. It’s basically the more affordable version of the Breville! It’s like the people who make pressure cookers actually talked to people who use them and created this nearly perfect appliance. It comes with a stainless steel pot to last, and two gaskets for sweet and savory dishes, has a steam diffusing cover (!) and an easy pressure release button that doesn’t burn your hands and resets on its own. It also has a sous vide function plus a bunch of others, pre-programmed to make it simple. The lid comes completely off and rests on the left or the right so no more burning your hand while serving. (Thank you, InstantPot!) It doesn’t have a pressure sensor in the lid (just the one in the bottom) but I don’t think that makes a difference in the overall food product. It also doesn’t offer as much pressure customization but I honestly almost never used that feature in the Breville. The only thing I wish it had was a removable power cord.
If you’re in the market for an InstantPot you can’t go wrong with this one. Let’s hope it lasts me another 5 years

Si me gusto mi IP. Es de gran ayuda y aún hay mucho que aprender para sacarle todo el provecho posible. Ya tengo 1 año con ella y he preparado muchas cosas distintas, desde postres hasta Cochinita, birria, pozole, cocer frijoles, caldos, estofados, me encanta!

I bought the instant pot to help me transition into a plant best diet to help speed up the meal prep cooking time and for the convenience of one pot quick healthy meals.

In deciding in which kind of the InstantPot to settle on I chose the 6qt Duo Evo Plus.
6qt is claimed to be the most versatile size that can serve up to 6 portions and will work perfectly for both small families as well as a single person.

The reason I chose duo evo plus over the other kinds are:
- fully plastic top cover ( to eliminate changes of accidental burning),
- the steam diffuser helps to diffuser the steam in more steady and controlled way,
- pressure release button is separated form the diffuser and locks into the seal position automatically upon closing the lid,
- the inner pot has rubber handles that come in handy ( pun not intended) and prevent the pot form spinning while stirring,
- the inner pot can be removed and used on just about any kind of stove top,
- the dial knob is very helpful while cooking and choosing the program you’d like,
- 7 programs, including sous vide, yogurt and bake one are very handy and easy to use.

Over all I am happy with the purchase and excited to start cooking with it! My first soup was totally improvised and turned out delicious, proven by my boyfriend having 5 serving at one sitting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente opción para cocinar una gran variedad de alimentos, seguro y practico
Reviewed in Mexico on December 15, 2020
Desde hace tiempo había visto este tipo de ollas a presión, y no me gustaba usar la olla común y corriente por peligrosa y por el gasto de gas. En esta Instant Pot, te ahorras muchísimo tiempo en cocinar tus alimentos y siempre quedaran con la mejor calidad posible.

Los tiempos de cocción vienen en el manual y hay infinidad de canales y paginas dedicadas a saber cuanto tiempo, en que nivel de presión y mas trucos que los que trae el manual. Pero si ya eres usuario de olla express normal, te dire que al menos reducirá de un 40% hasta 60% el tiempo necesario.

La funcionalidad de mantener calientes los alimentos una vez que termino el proceso es muy util, sobre todo para poder terminar de manera correcta frijoles, huevos, garbanzos, etc. o hacer un buen arroz al vapor (gohan).

Aunque haya gente que diga que solo viene en ingles, es una pena que no hagan un esfuerzo en al menos, intentar saber que dicen los botones. Por mi esta mas que bien ese detalle.

Como parte negativa solo puedo decir que el espacio que ocupa la olla es mucho, pero adentro puedes guardar mas accesorios que hayas comprado, o incluso algo que me pareció un detalle "enfadoso" es cambiar de grados Fahrenheit a Celsius.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect appliance for impatient cooks
Reviewed in Canada on August 31, 2021
I bought the DuoEvoPlus to replace a slow cooker that was becoming unsafe to use. I thought I was mainly going to use it for cooking beans and grains, but as I started trying other recipes, I realized this was a great appliance for lazy cooks that want food fast, without having to stand in front of the stove babysitting a pot. It takes a while to find the right recipe that gives the perfect result you expect, but the results are unbelievably fast, and the flavors and textures are equivalent to the long, slow, time consuming results from traditional methods. This particular model gets hi marks from a number of reviews, and I find it very easy to use. It is a bit more expensive that other models, but as I use it more and more, I am realizing its worth the extra price. I now understand why so many owners of Instant pots are like a fanatical cult that keeps trying to convert everyone they meet. All hail the Instant Pot.

5.0 out of 5 stars BUENA COMPRA, APRENDIMOS ALGUNAS COSAS
Reviewed in Mexico on August 21, 2020
Es la primera vez que compramos una Instant Pot y pudimos darnos cuenta de varias cosas:

1. Prácticamente todos los modelos tienen las mismas funciones básicas y las más avanzadas se usan muy poco.

2. Se ve mucho más complicada de usar de lo que es. Básicamente es una olla a presión a la que se le puede configurar el tiempo y el nivel de calor.

3. La Evo Plus si ofrece algunas características que en lo personal, valoramos tener. Como la válvula de vapor que evita que “salga el chorro” de vapor, el botón de bloqueo automático y las agarraderas en la olla. De ahí en fuera es lo mismo que las demás. Si estas características no te preocupan, podrías ahorrarte un buen dinero.

4. Los alimentos si se cocinan más rápido que en una olla express convencional y hace la vida más fácil.

En resumen, la recomendamos completamente.

Plus: los tiempos de cocción preestablecidos no están configurados para la altura de la CDMX, conviene más hacerlo todo manual el irle midiendo.
