. Curiously, it’s only the six-quart version that’s on sale at both Walmart and Amazon — the smaller three-quart option is actually slightly more expensive at the moment, priced at $60. The larger eight-quart version, on the other hand, remains at its $109 list price.

While this isn’t the same Instant Pot that was heavily discounted during Amazon Prime Day, it’s yet another hugely popular model. On both Amazon and Walmart, the pot boasts a 4.5 out of a 5-star review, with well over 3,000 people weighing in with their (mostly positive) opinions. Combining the speed of pressure cooking with the quality of a slow cooked meal definitely has its benefits. With more than 300,000 units sold on Prime Day alone, the Instant Pot is one of the hottest cooking appliances on the market today.

Meant to serve families of between four to six people, the Instant Pot Lux V3 includes both a cake and an egg program on top of its trademark pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, sauté, steamer, and warmer functions. The appliance also boasts 10 built-in programs so that you can easily make soups, porridges, stews, and more, all with the touch of a button.

The Lux V3 allows up to four hours of pressure-cooking as well as a 24-hour delayed start, and can also keep food warm for up to 10 hours. Included with the Instant Pot are a stainless steel steam rack without handles, rice paddle, soup spoon, measuring cup, recipe booklet, manual, and timetable.

With fall in full swing, it's no surprise that slow cookers will be in action to whip up all of your favorite holiday dishes. Instant Pot has announced a new smartphone-friendly model to its well-known pressure cooker lineup. The Instant Pot Pro Plus boasts Wi-Fi connectivity, an app chock-full of recipes, and a few hardware design updates.

The core functions of the 10-in-1 cooker remain the same. You can use it to slow cook, steam veggies, cook rice, sauté meat, make yogurt, use as a sous vide, and even can your own preserves. Rice and soup modes include something called NutriBoost, which uses bursts of steam to mix things up inside and evenly distribute flavor. Apparently, this also increases the nutritional value. Instant Pot says cooking with this can be up to 70% faster compared to the stove, which also saves on power usage.
