Crockpot vs Instapot

[Dex]

I'm a big crockpot guy (weird flex I know) but I always pass by Instapots in the store and was wondering if any of y'all have experience using both and which you prefer.

My wife bought an Instant Pot recently and they work quite good.  Just used a few times.  She made some Beef Stew last week and the meat was so tender I couldn’t  pick it up with a folk...just fell apart.  Crazy delicious.  So yes, they work well.  I still love the crockpot though and won’t be abandoning it.

Instapot is basically a pressure cooker. Great for cooking meals quickly. But it also has other features. 

Crockpot is great for slow cooking things. I have both and use both regularly

I rarely use my crockpot anymore since getting an induction stove. That thing can go low and slow better than any crockpot since it doesn't rely on cycling, just a constant low temp. Since the crockpot pretty much never gets used anymore, I've been thinking about ditching it and the rice cooker and getting an instapot.

Instant Pot is a cool toy. I've used it to make lighting fast pasta on the pressure cook setting and all kinds of meats. There's no substitute for the ol slow cooker though, nothing can replace the taste of cooking something for a long time.

We have and used both regularly.

 

Even though the Instapot can cook slow its not what it excels at.
