I had a crock pot that was getting old and having issues. Instead of buying a new one, I went with an Instant pot.
It does speed up some recipes and is convenient for others. I made mashed potatoes for Christmas. 25 minutes to cook the potatoes. When it is done, I manually release the pressure.
I slow cook chili a lot. What takes 3-4 hours in the crockpot takes 45 minutes in the instant pot.
It can be quirky though. If you don't have enough liquid it will not cook. It should give you a "food burn" type of error message. It means that it is heating up but unable to build pressure. So that can be annoying the 1st couple of times it happens.
Overall for me it was an excellent purchase.
