"Setup was easy for me"
I had a smooth time getting it set up. The instructions were easy enough to follow, and it didn’t take me very long overall. I did have to go back and reread one step to make sure I was doing it right, but after that everything went fine and worked like it should.

"Pretty good for the price"
I thought the price was fair. I checked a few other places first. This still felt like a good deal. The item seems worth it so far. Shipping wasn’t fast, but it wasn’t too slow either. I’m happy overall. I just wish they had more discounts.

"Warranty replacement came through, just a bit slow"
They did replace my cooker under warranty in the end, so I can’t really fault them on that part. From my point of view, it just felt like the communication could’ve been better. Replies took a while, and I had to chase them twice before things moved along. Happy it got sorted, but the process wasn’t exactly quick.

"Packaging could’ve been better"
I’ll admit I’m a little picky about how stuff arrives, so the dented box bothered me a bit. The item itself worked perfectly fine, though, so it wasn’t a huge deal in the end.

"Same problem again with the recipe"
I was really hoping this one would turn out better, but dinner completely flopped again. It’s frustrating because I feel like I’m running into the same issue every time I try one of these recipes.

"Really easy and worth using"
The website was super easy to navigate, and placing my order only took a few minutes. I found what I needed right away without any confusing steps or hassle. it felt like a good, straightforward experience and definitely worth it.
"Works fine, but I wish the sizing was clearer"
Ordering was easy and the product does what it’s supposed to, so I can’t really complain too much. That said, it ended up being a little smaller than I was expecting. It’s fine for one or two people, but I wouldn’t count on it for family meals. I just feel like it’s only fair for listings to be really clear about size and capacity so people know what they’re getting. Overall, it’s not a bad product, just not quite what I hoped for.

"Good app, just kinda slow here and there"
I’ve been using the Instant Brands app with my air fryer, and it’s been useful. Nothing fancy to explain, it just helps when I don’t know what to throw together.
The recipes are easy enough to look through, and the steps are clear, not like some apps where you’re halfway lost before you even start cooking. The layout is simple too, so I can find quick dinner stuff without poking around forever.
I’d give it 5 stars, but the app does load slow sometimes, like it just hangs for a bit. Also, a few recipes could really use better pictures, because some of them don’t tell you much. Still, overall it’s a good app and I keep using it.
"Basic replacement parts shouldn’t be this hard to get"
I just needed a new lid seal and one small plastic piece for my Instant Pot, nothing major. I figured it would be a quick fix, but their website either shows the parts as out of stock or doesn’t list them at all, which has been really frustrating.
I reached out to customer support, but they mostly pointed me back to the site and told me to check again later. It’s been weeks, and I still can’t get what I need. It feels ridiculous to replace the whole appliance because of one cheap little part, so I don’t think I’ll be buying from them again.

"The app controls actually make cooking easier"
After using it for a few dinners, the smart features are what stood out to me most. Being able to control things from the app just makes the whole process feel smoother, especially when I’m trying to do a few things at once in the kitchen. It’s simple, it works well, and it saves me time

"Works well, but cleaning is a bit of a chore"
I do like how this works overall, but cleaning it has been more annoying than I expected. Food tends to get stuck around the edges, and there are a few spots that are hard to reach unless you really scrub at them for a while (not exactly what I want to do after cooking). I figured it would be a quick rinse-and-done kind of thing, but it takes more effort than that. It’s not a dealbreaker, but for everyday use, it definitely feels like extra work.

"Took longer than I wanted"
My order showed up in good shape, so no real complaints there. I just expected it to ship sooner, and it was kind of annoying having to wait longer than I’d planned.

"Most of the accessories fit just fine"
I picked up a few extra parts for my Instant Pot and most of them fit really well. One of the lids threw me off at first, so I reached out to support. They basically said, “try lining it up this way and make sure it’s the right size for your model,” and that helped clear things up. Overall, happy with it

"Still going strong, even when I expected issues"
I’ve had my Instant Pot for a couple of years now, i keep waiting for something to go wrong because so many appliances seem to let you down after a while. That’s definitely made me a little less trusting of kitchen gadgets in general. But this one has just kept working like it did on day one. I use it a few times a week, and so far there haven’t been any weird problems or broken parts. I’m happy it’s been this reliable

"Box was a little dented, but the item was fine"
When it arrived, I noticed the corner of the box was a bit dented, so I was slightly worried at first. Luckily, the item inside was totally fine with no damage that I could see. Not a big deal overall, just something I noticed.

"Discount code didnt work"
I tried using the promo code they gave me and it just wouldnt go through. I emailed support a couple times thinking maybe it was a quick fix, but nobody ever got back to me. Annoying tbh.

"I’m kind of worn out by stuff..."
I’m kind of worn out by stuff like this at this point. The payment screen just kept spinning, and I had to retry it twice before it finally went through. Not the end of the world, but definitely annoying when you just want to be done.

"Feels safer in my kitchen"
I put these safety locks on in my kitchen and feel a lot better now. They work like they should, and I even kept the receipt email just in case, but so far I haven’t needed it

"Cute on the counter, but feels a little flimsy"
I’ll be honest, when I first set it up I was happy with how it looked. The design is simple and clean, and it actually looks really nice sitting on the counter. But then once I started handling it more, my excitement kind of dropped because some of the pieces feel thinner and more plasticky than I expected, especially for the price.
It does work fine, so I don’t totally regret buying it, but the buttons and lid just don’t feel very smooth or sturdy. One minute I’m like, “Okay, it looks good and gets the job done,” and the next I’m annoyed because it feels like something that might wear out sooner than it should. Not awful, just not as nice as I hoped

"Still can’t get it to cook evenly"
I picked up this Instant Brands cooker because everyone seems to rave about how much easier these things make weeknight dinners, but mine has been hit or miss so far.
The rice keeps coming out mushy on the bottom and kind of dry on top, which is not what I expected. I also tried chicken using the timing from the manual, and it was still undercooked in the middle, so that was a little concerning.
I’ve messed with the water levels and tried different settings, but I’m still not getting even results. Maybe other people are having better luck with theirs, but for me it’s been more frustrating than helpful
