Tower T920003 Pressure Cooker, Twist/Turn Lid, Stainless Steel, 6 Litre, 22 cm £43.29 @ Amazon

Depends what you are comparing it against. We made potato leek soup today from fresh with instant pot for 4 people (a standard soup bowl each). That's sauté function followed by 6 min high pressure. One portion was kept in the pot and reheated in the evening using the keep warm function. The total is 0.58kWh. Probably just under 2kg worth of ingredients. Yesterday we made spaghetti for three with a jar of marinara. That's 8 min high pressure for a total of 0.23kWh. About 1kg worth of ingredients. Hope that helps ... . Because of high pressure, smaller quantities, and good insulation it definitely beats the stovetop.

Instant Pot is pretty much set and forget if you use it as a pressure cooker. I throw ingredients into the pot, turn it on, then I can go back to my meetings and work. Dinner is guranteed to be ready when it is lunch/dinner time without me having to take a second look at it.

I wouldn't recommend doing the same with a traditional pressure cooker.

Guess it depends on if you have time to keep an eye on it.

It is also way more than just a pressure cooker.

But I am not really paid to convince anyone. You do you.

I was gonna write same. Who uses these when theres an instant pot

I have two stove top pressure cookers. Both are rrubbish. The rubber seals shrunk and even when they were new the pressure was weak. Not like the pressure cooker that we had when I was a kid, which was awesome.

What has changed? Pressures come down? Perhaps I have been unlucky with my purchases..
