Some of My Favorite Instant Pot Cooking Tools Are on Sale Early for Prime Day
The double whammy of the July 4 sales and the upcoming Amazon Prime Day have sparked some great pre-sale deals. If you’ve been in the market for new kitchen appliances, you’ll be pleased to hear that Instant Pot has quietly put its entire line of products on sale.
Instant Pot became a household name when its multi-cooker made a splash, bringing pressure cookers back into everyday use. This cgadget is enjoying a notable sale — the Instant Pot Duo Mini 7-in-1 is on sale for $59.99, and the Instant Pot Duo Plus 9-in-1 is 50% off for $69.99. The Duo Plus has extra functionality and twice the capacity, so unless you have serious storage constraints, it’s worth the extra $10.
My favorite Instant appliance is their Vortex Air Fryer with a 6-Quart Basket , which is currently on sale for 29% off for $84.99. I love this machine — maybe too much. After testing several different styles of air fryers (you can see what they look like here), this one has become my daily machine. The Instant Vortex cooks evenly, it’s powerful, it vents well, and it’s by far the easiest to clean. I’ve literally pulled one fryer out, stared at it, and put it back in the cabinet because I knew I’d regret the mess. I’d grab my trusty Vortex instead. You can read my full review of the Instant Vortex Air Fryer here — note that the one on sale now is the new generation with the larger digital display.
I’m a big fan of simple rice cookers that have a single switch and operate with a spring mechanism, but newer, sleeker rice cookers are all the rage right now. They come preloaded with options for other grains (quinoa, oats, brown rice, and more), so you don’t have to think about it as much. The Instant Pot rice cooker is exactly that type of rice cooker, with a sleek, clean design and an easy-to-navigate menu of options. It’s a 20-cup rice cooker, so I recommend it to anyone who likes to cook large batches of rice for freezing or who cooks for more than four people.
While these are my favorite finds, don’t miss out on the other sales Instant Pot is having right now.
