Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1
Score: 70/100
CHEF iQ Smart Pressure Cooker
Score: 84/100Rankings
The CHEF iQ Smart Pressure Cooker is a 6-quart Wi-Fi-enabled multicooker featuring a built-in scale and ten cooking functions. Its smart features add complexity and price, and occasional app issues can be frustrating. Best suited for tech-savvy cooks who value precise, guided cooking and have space for a larger appliance.
The Instant Pot Duo 8-quart model offers versatile 7-in-1 cooking with a large capacity and durable stainless-steel inner pot. Its size and weight make it less portable and it lacks smart connectivity. Ideal for families needing a single, all-purpose cooker.
