Score: 70/100
Instant Pot RIO
Score: 78/100Rankings
The Instant Pot RIO 6-quart combines a sleek anti-spin stainless-steel pot with digital controls and 13 smart programs. Its weight and short warranty may concern some users. Great for families seeking a modern, fast cooker without advanced smart features.
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.
