Equipment Reviews: Multicookers
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- We selected 13 multicookers, priced from about $77 to about $250, including our previous winners. We included both 8-quart and 6-quart models because our multicooker recipes work equally well in both sizes. In each model, we pressure- and slow-cooked beef stew and Boston baked beans and made white rice.

Oh boy, here I go binging ATK equipment review videos again.
Same!! I’m giving tons of my old stuff to my daughter who is moving out just for the excuse to get much better new stuff!!!😂🤣😇
works great. i love that it has stainless steal pot inside ruclips.net/user/postUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and not the one with coating. we used to have a coated pot before, and the coating slowly peels, and i am sure went into the food that we cooked. Absolutely love stainless steel, and will not use a coated product again.This pot has many settings and many buttons, and i need to sit down with a manual to figure out which setting to use. I used the basic functions, and even though i am not technologically skilled, i turned it on and assembled it without any help.Very satisfied with this product overall.
Product alert: The winning multicooker, the Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus, has been discontinued. ATK reviewed the replacement, the Instant Pot Pro, and rated it the new winner, although they noted that it didn't slow-cook large cuts of meat as well as the old one. Having an old-fashioned slow cooker is still the way to go for big pot roasts, it seems.
Can you find the new review? The most recent I'm seeing is this video.
@@jamersbazuka8055 It's on the ATK Web site, which requires a subscription to access. www.americastestkitchen.com/equipment_reviews/2242-multicookers
But doesnt that one just use the stove top to heat up ??
@@jaxxboss1 No, the test is of multi-cookers, not Dutch ovens. This is the current winner: cb.scene7.com/is/image/Crate/InstantPt6qPPrsrCkrSSF21_VND
I prefer my ninja foodi
This channel is brilliant. It should be required viewing for anyone about to spend any money on any kitchen anything.
I can't thank America's Test Kitchen enough for all your wonderful, methodical, and to the point videos. They have been extremely helpful when adding items to our wedding registry. As an engineer, I appreciate all the thought that has gone into the testing of the products. Running TC tests were really the cherry on top! Great work!
You make these reviews so scientific it's hard to not trust them. Amazing job. Truly impressed with those.
Just bought an Instant Pot second hand for $20. Works perfectly. Probably my best buy ever. Just came here to brag about my great deal. 😂
Beat you to it $5 for mine... new it was only missing the power cable and i have many of them lol
$16 for the insta-pot duo 8 qt here....plot twist - brand new in box at the Goodwill. Looks like a duplicate wedding gift or something, pretty sure it was never opened.
I win!
I got the winner for free… lol
My sister got one as a gift and her dog peed on the side.. lmao
I offered to clean it properly and give it back and she didn’t want it back.
Turns out, literally a few drops splashed the back… he mostly peed on her hair straightener and clothes… she was just so angry she didn’t bother checking and just threw it back in the box and gave it to me.
Haha
I loved that stupid dog anyway, but I loved him even more after that. Free cookware is always nice.
Got mine for $10. Jeffrey wins lol.
I am refusing to count the one that was peed on!
We love a great buy!
I have had the 6 qt Crock Pot cooker for about 3 years. It’s been great and I’ve never thought I needed anything additional to its features. It has the nonstick liner and I was leary of that initially, but it has held up very well and is very easy to clean. You’re right about the unnecessary buttons for cooking various foods, but, as you suggest, I ignore them and set up the time and pressure myself, and it works flawlessly.
Awesome! I’ve had the crockpot for two years now. Use it almost every other day for a family of 5 with 3 teenagers. Love it!
One of the best kept secrets is the 3 qt. Instant Pot! While the perfect choice for cooking for one or two people, it can also serve as an auxiliary cooker for a larger family. Takes up far less space on the counter top, large enough for 8-9 "hard boiled" eggs or 4 good sized potatoes, makes a 1/2 gal of yogurt, etc. Would love to see a review of this size.
Right? It's great for those times you just need a small option or cooking something extra on the side. Only negative (but not really) was it didn't have sous vide, which would be nice on a smaller scale at times.
I absolutely love the 3qt and use it the most of my instant pot collection. It's great for rice or a dozen eggs, a side of Mac and cheese, etc.
Nah, you can always cook a little in a larger pot but not a lot in a little pot. 6 qt is the sweet spot. 8 qt for family of 6 or more.
I have the 3qt and love it for my small apartment kitchen. Initially bought it as a rice cooker, all the other features were a bonus. Not everyone needs a 6qt, and I think someone’s “sweet spot” depends on how many people are in their home (2 in my case) and how much countertop or storage space they have. I didn’t miss the sous vide function as I already had a Joule.
I love mine. Buying a 2quart one today. Made by PrepAMeal.
I love your equipment reviews. Thank you so much--they have resulted in many purchases! I've been tempted to purchase one of these pots, but I am retired and have nothing but time, so I can make things the old-fashioned way ... low and slow. Right now I have short-ribs cooking all day in a 250 degree oven. But if time was an issue, I would definitely be all over these things.
6 QT Duo Evo Plus owner here! Had an initial issue w/ our first 2 pots, but 3rd was a charm. They had an error message appear while in saute mode. It's been resolved. Great piece of equipment in the kitchen! We use it quite a bit!
Did that happen to be the c8 error? I’m having the same problem with the second replacement. Waiting to hear back from Instant pot on what to do now.
@@holdenroskelley53 yes! C8. Supposedly they fixed it, so your replacement should be ok
@@jametz66 haha thanks for the info. I hope so cause this is two pots now that have done it. Fingers crossed!
could i suggest reviewing combo convection/mircrowave/air fryers? love these videos. many thx.
I agree. It's so much better than the rest. I'm very happy with my Foodi but I used this model Instant Pot at a friend's house and it blew me away. My main complaint about the foodi, and one of the only ones I have, is it's impossible to take the pot out without damn near burning yourself if you need to transfer or drain anything.
Thank you for this review. I've been using my Instant pot for about five years and I like it. But based on this review looks like it's time to upgrade to the duo Evo. I particularly liked the new digital screen and the handles on the liner pot. Thanks for keeping us up to date 😁
The Duo Evo is my favourite of the 4 pots I have. I use it more than the others.
I have not been a fan of any of the electric pressure cookers that I've had in the past 10 years. I bought my Duo Evo Plus because of America's Test Kitchen right before Christmas. Even though I've owned two other instant pot brand multi cookers in the past and hated them both I decided to give this one a chance and wow do I love it. I only have the 6-quart model but it's easy to use and it has a much shorter learning curve. I never thought I would ever trade in my rice cooker which I use for both rice, soups, oatmeal's and hot cereals, and several dozens of hard-boiled eggs. I've done all of those things now in my instant pot Duo Evo Plus and for the first time I'm actually considering donating my rice cooker. I think my slow cookers are still safe but the rice cooker I'm not so sure. LOL
I would love to see more pressure cooking recipes!
Me too!!
shop.americastestkitchen.com/multi-cooker-perfection.html
Hop on Google...they are ALL over the web. Thousands of recipes. And there are youtube channels dedicated to pressure cookers. "Pressure Luck" comes to mind.
Yes, more pressure cooker recipes! For cooktop pressure cookers, not just electric.
Damn right. ATK is really all over the map with their equipment reviews. God bless Adam Ried & co, but I can't stomach more than a few seconds of that saccharine QVC style banter. Lisa runs a tight goddamn ship, these are some of the most thorough and clear kitchen gear reviews anywhere. Stop messing with perfection.
I liked reading your comment. I agree, Lisa has a very thorough presentation.
Love this!! Next, would you all please consider reviewing: vacuum sealers
I love your reviews! We bought the bread knife you recommended and Love it! We also bought the Instant Pot you recommended here and in a previous video. I am just learning to cook and also to use a pressure cooker. The Duo Evo Plus is awesome! Made delicious stew and amazing pork spare ribs. I over sauted some chicken and the rice didn't cook well per the recipe I was following but 2 winners out of 3 attempts is a great start :-) My DH wants more ribs so that is what I will cook again soon. Thank you so much for the great information. I learn so much from you! P.S. This Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus is also designed very well for cleaning. The parts in the lid come off easily to be cleaned and replaced as does the little evaporation catcher on the back of the unit. This is a huge help!
I bought that bread knife too and it’s amazing!
If I could make another (or two) gadget suggestion(s), buy the Starpack spoonula they recommend: www.americastestkitchen.com/equipment_reviews/1636-spatula-spoons-spoonulas
It's honestly the best tool I use, followed closely by the Yamazaki ladle and lid stand they also recommend: www.americastestkitchen.com/equipment_reviews/1796-lid-holders
Best of all, you can usually get both for under $30.
I use to have a Instant Pot. I now have a Nija Foodie which I love it the best thing I have ever bought. There are so many functions you can make with it.
I have an older 3 Qt. Instant Pot since I live alone and have only used certain functions due to how I cook and love the appliance. I even purchased a 6 Qt. cooker for my brother and sister-n-law also.
I love the thoroughness of your reviews
I just scored this model for £59.99/$77.50 USD (free next-day shipping) and for that price, I won't mind buying another cool gadget.
I used my son's Instant Pot Duo in California a couple of months ago and loved it.
Can't wait to use it! Happy cooking, everyone! And thanks, ATK! ♥
I have the Breville one and I really love it! It's easy and hasn't let me down yet. But it's good to know that if/when it goes crazy I'll know where to look 1st!
The best buy crock pot just had a recall because of its lid. When there was a recall I got excited thinking I could finally get rid of the thing which constantly throws e4 or e9 error codes when it overheats and won't turn back on when after power cycling. It's Junk
Happy Duo Evo Plus owner. Check out the numerous websites dedicated to IP recipes to really get the most out of yours!
Care to recommend a few sites, please? I would really appreciate it as a new Instant Pot owner and user
We recently made pressure cooker risotto--a Cooks Illustrated recipe, IIRC--in our 3 qt Insta. and it turned out great. Possibly another good test recipe.
I have the crockpot version. I like it. I would agree with your review. The front panel is clumsy and confusing. I do like the nonstick. I live in an RV and don’t always have the water to waste in scrubbing out a pot. But no matter if I’m plugged into electricity at a campground or using my generator- It is a wonderful appliance for tiny living! Just a heads up- for those who already own the crockpot pressure cooker- there was recently a recall on a part.
The Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus is awesome. It is my fave of the pots I have.
I bought the InstanPot Evo Plus a while ago. My favorite pressure cooker ever! I have several. I also like the IP Mini, very useful for sides and travel.
I have had my Insta Pot since 2017. It helped my over come my fear of pressure cookers. I have been pressure canning for almost three years because of the Insta Pot.
FYI, i have the Ninja 8qt multi cooker and there are many accessories for it as i'm sure there are for the 6qt. One accessory is the 8qt stainless steel pot to better sear meats.
I got my duo evo on black friday and I have not looked back. It really is worth the hype, especially if you like cooking from scratch
They say that if you start the instant pot with hot water for sous vide it will work well
That's what I do with my Sansaire sous vide immersion circulator. It saves a lot of time getting the water bath up to temperature.
Interesting no mention of the dreaded BURN warning. I love my Instant Pot but the burn warning really does my head in as you never really know when it is going to happen. I often find that even if the bottom is really clean certain things make the burn come on.
volatile flavour molecules is a great album name.
Not quite as good as Headful of Snot.
I vote band name. Just to get more uses out of it.
Now I know what a "multi-cooker" is, and what an Instant Pot is. A slow cooker? I have one that is a crock pot brand, but it is an oval shaped thing with a heavy stoneware insert. I also have one that is round, with a heavy stoneware insert. These come with glass lids. Pressure Cooker? Yes, I have one of those - a wonderful Wolfgang Puck one, 8 quart with a non-stick insert cooking pot. I've had it 6 or 7 years now, and I use it all the time. It has only one timer knob on the front that sets the cooking time, and turns down until finished, then changes to the "keep warm" function. I haven't used it to cook rice, because I have a smaller rice cooker, which is digital - a mini pressure cooker just for rice. Thanks Lisa for your very thorough review of these. Next time I want baked beans, I'll use my pressure cooker. I haven't tried that yet. Do you have a recipe?
I have the Crockpot multicooker 6 qt and it works well.
*WHEW*
I bought this top model a couple months ago. I do love it. Even agree with what she said about the 8 vs. 6 quart. I bought the 6 bcs I thought it's just cooking for me, I don't need any bigger. But sautéing in it is a bit of a drag, I resisted but contemplated dragging out a frying pan last time I made stew. But I use this at least once a week.
"I resisted but contemplated dragging out a frying pan last time I made stew."
That's what I would do if I had a multi-cooker. It's one more pan to clean, but I could get my cast iron skillet screaming hot for a fast, dark sear and then transfer the meat to the multi-cooker. I do that now with my Dutch oven cooking, because the larger surface and lower sides of the skillet make searing in one batch easier, and I don't mind cleaning a skillet, which takes only a few minutes.
Appreciate your effort in explaining . Those who want to know which one to buy 7:12
IP duo evo plus is the one I have been looking forward to upgrading to. Now I deff will. My birthday is coming up! I had one with non stick and it started coming off in about 3_4 months upgraded to the stainless steel pot. Can't live without my IP! Even goes in the RV and runs off solar since we RV cp 6 months a yr. Win win win.
We own the Crockpot it’s a great entry point but I’m still to this day and two years into ownership pretty confused by it. Enough so that we are planning on buying the InstantPot
Since I was wanting an 8 qt, I will look into getting the IP Duo Evo Plus 9 in 1. Thanks for this great review.
I don't know about the other brands but IP seems to bring out new, updated models almost continuously. Then the older models go on "sale" then on "close-out" then on clearance. Then somebody (probably an employee) gets the floor model for dirt-cheap. One thing I like is to pressure cook meat to almost done, then switch it to the bbq or convection oven to finish it off. Great report by the way.
I love my duo evo plus!
I have used electric pressure cookers for almost a decade, but refused to buy an Instant Pot until I saw your review. Thank you for this testing!
Interesting that All-Clad would lend it's name to such a dud of a cooker. They are usually known for their top quality in most everything.
Years ago, they had MANY issues and complaints on their slow cookers as well. The ceramic inserts were cracking and you had to get a replacement, but those also failed 😞
for stainless steel cookware they good and expensive, this is new direction they are heading.
Most high end brands go this way. A hedge fund will buy them and license the name to cheap junk for a quick payday, then dump the company before it tanks. Good luck to all the employees that lose their jobs when it becomes 100% licensed overseas junk.
People, it's not INSTAPOT, it's INSTANT POT. Phew,I guess I needed to get that off my chest. 😁
@kateri17 imagine my surprise when I bought mine. I've been calling it instapot. 😅
I could have sworn I saw it was instapot somewhere.
😂
It’s a cute name though I think they missed out on a really great naming opportunity
@@pjschmid2251 I agree it probably would have been a better name for it!
Ok Sheldon...knock 3×'s
I just bought one this morning!!! Thank you ATC!!!
"ATC"? Air Traffic Control? I'm guessing you mean "ATK." ;-)
What do you do with the equipment after you've done the testing? I can imagine giving small stuff away to cooking schools or magnet schools, but all those multipots? Who would you give them to?
Better question is who gets the booby-prize of the losers? That Al-clad pot looked like a very expensive door stop.
They give it all to me to sell on Ebay! Hahaha joking aside, that's a good question. Hopefully, they give it to charity.
Some of the non-winners go to the people working there.
I got the aldi version on sale for $26. It does not have the fancy features of some of these, but it works fine.
Re the jumble of buttons on tbe IP. I love it bc my kids can cook by themselves. I ve pre set all the programs so i just tell them. Put the asparagus on steam1st setting. We have thd basic IP 8 qt. With spare bowl. Use it all the time. We have a Japanese rice cokker for ricd though so the run in parallel.
Love the equipment reviews. Wish you would do countertop ice makers.
It would be great if you tested Philips pressure cookers as well. It's is quite a popular option as well
Thank you for these review videos. They are so helpful.
I purchased the 6 qt version of the winner on Amazon for $120 after seeing your IP vs. Slow cooker review a month ago. Something they didn't mention in this video is the fact that the inner pot has a heavy duty bottom which allows you to use it on the stove top. That's what makes it special and different from the basic IP models.I'm new to pressure cooking and so far it's awesome. Be sure to purchase a mesh basket because you'll use it a lot for veggies, hard boiled eggs, and potatoes. Oh, and as of this post, it's still on Amazon for $120. 😊
HELP please! I have duo evo plus. Yogurt, even when custom set on 115°, didn,t get hotter than 90°. And all the heat was at the bottom. It ruined a gallon of expensive ingredients. Please show us how to make yogurt in this pot. Otherwise I think I'll return it and get it when they invent having heating element around the sides (like a crockpot does) that activates when you use Yogurt or Sous Vide.
UPDATE: I returned it a week later. I'm making perfectly good yogurt with my oven and a towel. I can make everything else with what I already have in my kitchen.
I’m really curious what they do with all that food, is there some amazing homeless shelter or something like that, that gets the extra food?
Which should I go with Instant Pot Duo + CRISP or Duo Evo Pluss?
I like that the pot can spin, I thought that was on purpose and not a design flaw.
I bought an IP-LUX some years ago for $50. I've only used it a couple times as I don't cook stuff that needs pressure cooking that often and I can't spare the counter space. It did make quick work of Chicken Tika Marsala and Broccoli Beef (with chuck but cook the broccoli separate otherwise it's babyfood). I got this to replace a 20yo crockpot I never used and after seeing this review, I'm gonna have to do some temperature testing to verify my pot can cope.
This pot has not been available for quite a while. Which one is equivalent
What about the Insignia pressure cooker? I mean it's sold through Best Buy with plenty of people picking one up for it's low price. I definitely enjoy my 8qt model.
Damn 18k Reviews with 4.8 Stars on Amazon. That’s exactly the kind of product I look to get when ordering online.
Very thorough review and excellent recommendation! 👌🏾
You made beans,stew and pulled pork
I’d love to see the recipes that you used
They should be in this book: shop.americastestkitchen.com/multi-cooker-perfection.html
This video was amazing. The info was concise, but dense with useful info.
If I didn't already own a good quality pressure cooker and a slow cooker I would look at getting one of these multi gizmos.
This was a nicely done review
the sous vide function on the IP duo evo plus actually works pretty well if you use hot water from your tap. my tap goes to 128f and i want my steaks at 130f, and its hold temp very well the whole hour and a half.
I didn't get the EVO, just the regular Duo. How is the EVO with rice? The Instant Pot Duo is mediocre as a rice cooker, not really a step up from the cheap ones.
I really love your program it is so helpful in buying kitchen appliance and also recipes. I look here when I am in the market for recipes and appliances.
Great info love these equipment reviews. Thanks
You didn't comment about the accessory package and glass lid available for the winning multicooker.
So it appears that this model is no longer available - anywhere. Do you know which newer model with the desirable features replaced it?
I have a 6qt Faberware pressure cooker it works great and I only paid $55 for it at Walmart.
THANK YOU, I am actually in the market for one of these. :)
Yes i was hoping they woukd mention the Breville
To the folks ATK, it would be most helpful if you edited this video to include the fact that the recommended model here has been discontinued. Fortunately, another subscriber posted a comment here with the necessary update on information, but it would still be nice to hear it from you.
On a related note, I have two of your cookbooks which are centered around the multi cooker, and yet I find myself wanting much more. You have literally hundreds of recipes for the slow cooker across several cookbooks, so why can't a majority of those recipes be adapted for the multi cooker as well? And yes, I have looked on your website, and there doesn't appear to be much there. Perhaps I need to take a closer look at your cookbook collection and see if there are more books available for the multi-cooker. One thing I would like to learn from you is how to use the instant pot to make fluffy, perfectly cooked White rice. Every time I try to do it in the instant pot, it comes out gummy and clumpy, not separate and fluffy. Washing it helps a little prior to cooking, but not much.
As far as slow cooking is concerned, I have reached the conclusion that there is no acceptable substitute for a regular, old fashioned slow cooker. So far, there is no Appliance on the market that completely replaces a slow cooker, while maintaining the same level of performance as the original.
Love my insta pot.
I had the previous Fagor pressure cooker. It was always off by several minutes. Struggled for 2 years. Was glad to get rid of it. Bought the recommended Instant pot Evo. Still prefer my All Clad Crock pot over the slow Cooker option on the Instant pot which heats from the bottom. The crock pot heats from the sides.
I wish we got Instant Pots here in Oz. There’s pretty much no model with a stainless steel tub 😕
It's not popular, but I love my 4 old school stovetop Hawkins pressure cookers (2, 3, 5, 8qt). The design is so simple it was designed by the inventor of the wheel.
Would love to see more ATK recipes for multi cookers
I tried 2 InstaPots and could not get them to go into pressure... my Ninja Foodi is fantastic, it goes under pressure and everything I have cooked in it has turned out beautifully... even browning meat turns out great!
Look at the graph for slow cooking. It was terrible...the worst.
@@AirrowRocket , I did use the slow cooker once, it came out fine, but I will use it more just to see if it’s comparable with my stand alone slow cooker.... even if it’s not, I still prefer my Ninja 😀
@@AirrowRocket I have slow cooked in mine quite successfully. The attached air fryer lid is cumbersome, but I don't have to have a separate air fryer. I love my Foodi 8 qt!
@@CreamyJalapeno Just judging by the temp graph creamy. Makes no difference to me. And they reviewed the Ninja Instant Cooker, not the Foodi.
Same Ladies, I LOVE my Ninja Foodi, instant pot and air fryer in 1, we cook almost everything in there now! LOVE IT!
You guys are the source of most useful and most comprehensive information! Love your reviews! Thank you! Keep up great work!
Glad you did this, though I was really REALLY hoping you were going to include the next step-up Instant Pot that has the air fryer included. I've been wanting one but have been reading WILDLY varying reviews of that model. Probably still going to try it since I love my original model and your review of this one makes me trust the complany.
I have read only bad reviews on the air fryer instant pot Good luck.
Love the Crockpot Express! I read the Consumer Report review that put CP to the test against Instant Pot. The CP pressurized faster and cost significantly less. That with the Yogurt function sold me. The only downside is what you pointed out -- a nonstick pot rather than stainless steel.
This may have been about the machines, but I got so hungry watching the photos of all the great food.
Sad that my Duo Evo had a production flaw and I had to return it, I really miss it. Just know that the Duo Evo Plus cannot be combined with the current airfryer lid when you are looking at IP models.
Well, on the bright side it seems that they just released a combination of the Evo duo plus and the air fryer lid called Pro Crisp + Air Fryer...
Did I miss something, or did you skip over the rice cooking testing? One of my biggest gripes with my instant pot is how much the rice tends to stick to the bottom.
I cook all my rice using the pot-in-pot method. Perfect every time!
Thank you for all your information on these pots! Good to know....😉👍🏼
I love my 3qt instant pot. It’s perfect size for me and my spouse. We had it for a few years now (since it first made its debut). I use it 1-2x a week.
@America's Test Kitchen, I love your reviews and ofter rely on it, but this time I think you missed the mark by not including 'Air Frying' lids which are the new 'it' option when people consider buying one of the multicookers - it's simply time to upgrade! Since you have all the cookers can you please add a review of the air frying lids?
You had me at "fewer dishes to wash" (and the browning). I gotta get me one of these. I've always wanted to try pressure cooking as well.
My Instapot is the best ever, would not even consider switching.
I bought the Zavor Lux and really like it.
@America's Test Kitchen, Did Instant Pot change the recommended model out for a new model? What your video shows as the Evo model is strikingly similar to the new Instant Pot® Pro 8-quart Multi-Use Pressure Cooker. The control panel appears to be the same and the current Duo does not have the handles like your Evo. I cannot find the Evo model even listed on their website anywhere. I will soon be in the market for another pressure cooker/multi cooker. I got rid of my Cuisinart pressure cooker when I moved overseas. Now that I am coming back, I will need to re-equip my kitchen.
They discontinued Evo model and they have introduced Pro in 2021 as far as I know.
@@SunnyOlga I got the Pro top-end one and it works well.
@@thayes1259 I got the pro too and so far I am happy with it:)
I have used an instant pot for years almost every day. Just a great quality machine.
What.. you didn’t test Emeril’s multicooker? And at only 3 easy payments of $39.99! Just kidding.. I love my little 3qt instant pot, it’s perfect for me and fits in my apartment kitchen.
