Everyday users appreciate the lightweight design, versatile removable pot, and health-focused ceramic coating, noting it handles family-size meals well.
Professional reviewers commend the Duo Plus for its WhisperQuiet steam release that stays under 75 dB, its rapid cooking speed that can be up to 70 % faster than conventional methods, and its extensive suite of 25 smart programs covering nine cooking functions.
