Hamilton Beach 4 Quart Programmable vs Instant Pot Lux 6-in-1

This is a good product but it runs small. The description says it's 4 quarts but I poured water into it and was only able to get in 3.5 quarts. It cooks well and I like how it automatically flips over to "warm" when the cooking time is complete

The booklet is not really all that handy as I spend a lot of time on line looking for recipes and specific instructions on which button combination to push for certain things but this too shall pass. Overall, it is a nice item. Large. Takes up way too much room to leave out on a counter so if you don't want to sacrifice premium real estate in the kitchen, you are going to need a closet or shelf to put this thing on

Number 4. Dishwasher Safe For Quick and Easy Cleanup: The removable stoneware and glass lid are both dishwashers safe, making cleanup a breeze. Number...

I removed the plastic sealing ring from the lid and washed both as thoroughly as possible, wiped the inside of the cooker body, and washed the inner pot of course, but it still remains. 5. The included user manual can be better. It'd be helpful for the first-time pressure cooker if there is a photo to show how it looks when the float valve pops on when working pressure is reached

I’ll make small adjustments next time. Cleaned up easily after being sprayed with Pam. I like it.

Just touching that gasket transfers the smell on my hands. If you don't get rid of that smell, it seeps into the food you cook later. I do love how fast it cooks things, but if you're not careful, things will get mushy.

In my opinion, this lid should have survived the tumble; it landed on carpet. At most, one might expect a crack in the glass; not complete obliteration. Update: Hamilton Beach customer service was extremely cooperative and thorough in investigating the incident. Their first concern was my well being, and if I required medical attention

The instant pot works great but I order this on line and it came in a 3 days but the box was badly damage and today I started using it and found out the handle was broken badly.

The temperature control was good. The timer was perfect for the dish and it was very easy to clean. I did mine by soaking and then using a soapy sponge. It came out clean without scrubbing

I promptly responded and a day later I received a follow up email with more questions, another test to run, and more images requested. I responded to that one and within minutes received a response noting they can confirm the heating element is not functioning properly and that they would be sending me a new bottom portion of my Instant Pot. Then two days later I got an email saying they are out of stock but that when in stock mine will ship and I will get notification it is on the way. Changed my review from a 1-star to a 3-star because even though I had to reach out a second time to get support, once they were involved they did diagnose the problem and will be sending a replacement
