This giveaway is sponsored by Instant Pot.

One of the most requested items for our giveaway, when I asked, was an Instant Pot. That should come as no surprise, since that seems to be consistent with what the rest of the world is asking for as well.

The Instant Pot was the most wished-for item on Amazon Prime last year, according to Prime data, and it was also the most-gifted item on Amazon’s wedding registry as well.

An ever bigger and better Instant Pot.

Part of what makes the Instant Pot so popular is the quality of the product. When you get an Instant Pot pressure cooker, you know you are getting a great quality product. But just when you thought it couldn’t get better, it did. The Duo Plus Instant Pot is the latest evolution in this #1 selling multi-cooker! This updated version includes more custom features, improved usability, and a large attractive blue LCD screen.

Every 12 to 18 months, the company rolls out a new version of the product, incorporating the ideas customers offer up. A feature protecting food from burning in the Instant Pot came through user critique, Robert Wang (the designer of the Instant Pot) has explained. Last year, we were able to give away a (3 quart) 7-in-1 Instant Pot…but this year, our giveaway is for a (6 quart) 9-in-1 Instant Pot!

Nine functions of the (6 Quart) 9-in-1 Instant Pot DUO Plus 60…

Duo Plus replaces 9 common kitchen appliances:

1. Pressure Cooker
2. Slow Cooker
3. Rice Cooker
4. Yogurt Maker
5. Egg Cooker
6. Sauté
7. Steamer
8. Warmer
9. Sterilizer

… and it makes cake too!

What people love about the Instant Pot:

Food cooks quicker.

Up to 70% quicker, actually! A great meal is just a press of a button away with 15 Microprocessor controlled programs taking the guess-work out of your cooking. Once you nail a recipe you can achieve perfect results every time.

Easy to clean and dishwasher safe.

All components in contact with food are food grade 304 (18/8) stainless steel, including the lid, the inner pot with 3-ply bottom, and steam rack with handles. That means they are easy to clean and dishwasher safe.

Use more than one function for one recipe.

One nice thing about the Instant Pot doing ALL of the nine things is that you can combine the functions within one recipe. For instance, you can start by sautéing your meat or vegetables, add more ingredients, and then slow cook or pressure cook the rest of the recipe, like in this Italian Turkey Meatball and Vegetable Soup recipe that I made in my 6-quart Instant Pot.
