So this thing is not a good pressure cooker (like most electric pressure cookers, it can't get the pressure that a real cooker gets), and it's not a good crock pot, and it's not a good replacement for a Dutch oven. I wanted to like it, but it tries to be 5 or 6 different things, and is incredibly mediocre at all of them.

You're much better off getting a good Dutch oven or pressure cooker than this POS--you can get the Lodge Dutch oven at Target for $30-40, and it'll do a hell of a lot more and better than the Instant Pot will.
