Instant Pot 7.5QT RIO Wide, 7-in-1 Electric Multi-Cooker, Pressure Cooker, Slow Cook, Rice, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt & Warmer, Wide Base, Large Searing Base, WhisperQuiet Steam Release

’ve been using the Instant Pot 4 qt RIO Mini 7-in-1 Multi-Cooker for a few weeks now, and it’s become one of my favorite kitchen helpers — especially since I don’t always feel like firing up the stove. It’s small enough that it doesn’t take over my counter, but still big enough to make meals for one or two people or leftovers for lunch, which is perfect for my apartment size. The seven functions — like pressure cook, slow cook, sauté, steam, rice, yogurt, and keep warm — give me tons of flexibility, so I can make anything from soups and rice to yogurt or steamed veggies without juggling multiple pots. It cooks stuff quickly (way faster than my old slow cooker) and cleanup is easy because the pot and lid are dishwasher safe. The progress indicator on the front is a nice touch too since I can see where it is in the cooking cycle at a glance. It’s not perfect — the lack of a detachable power cord and fewer accessories out there can be annoying — but overall it’s very handy, user-friendly, and a great small-space multitasker that I reach for almost every day.

I love it! Cooks thoroughly and efficiently. It's a large size so it's great for feeding a family or cooking for a party. The quality of the instant pot is great and comes with thorough instructions. It's also easy to clean as you can take out the inner pot. The one down side is it does take up a lot of space so if you have a small counter top like me it's something you'll have to store elsewhere. Overall I think it's worth the price and works really well. I recommend it!

I purchased this (Rio) as a replacement for an Instant Pot (Duo) that arrived damaged. Although I haven’t yet received a full refund for the damaged Instant Pot (Duo), I could not wait for the refund because I needed a functioning instant pot. The Instant Pot arrived today (Rio) and it is in great condition. A welcome relief. I will make good use of it. It is a main stay for my cooking needs. The quality appears good and the six quart cooking capacity is perfect for my needs. I will update this post after using it for a while to add more comments. This time just in case I made sure to keep the box. I do not anticipate any problems but all the same I will keep the box for the next thirty days. Instant Pot was recommended to me by a family member and I will definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great easy way to prepare meals. **2/10/2026 Update:** Without any incident, I successfully prepared red lentil soup and oatmeal using this Instant Pot (Rio). This is a significant achievement, as there have been no burn messages or other indications of potential issues with the appliance thus far. I am grateful for this development, as it provides an efficient method for preparing nutritious meals in advance. This is an Instant Pot (Rio) that I can recommend to others and feel good about it.

The wide shape of this Instant Pot is a total game changer. I’ve owned other models before, but this one fits so much more because of the wider diameter. Whole chicken, racks of ribs, large cuts of meat — everything fits without awkward folding or cutting. That alone makes this upgrade worth it. Cooking performance is exactly what I expect from Instant Pot: fast, even, and reliable. Pressure cooking is smooth, sauté space is generous, and it reduces cooking time for big meals without sacrificing tenderness. The pot is also easier to stir in because it’s not tall and narrow like older versions. If you cook whole poultry, soups in bulk, or one-pot family meals, this is the perfect size and shape. Plenty of room, less hassle, and more versatility. Highly recommend for anyone who wants more space to cook real full-sized meals, not just chopped-down portions.

Small enough to cook what I need for one person on a diet. While everyone else can eat what's for dinner. Its cooks stuff in 30 min a whole healthy low cal meal just for me. I had the original 'Harvest' Pressure cooker from the early 90"s and that would also allow me to do Canning. But this isn't an 8 quart it's a 4 quart and can make yogurt , just not in individual jars. Small price to pay to be able to make a small batch of what only I need. Oh and it's REALLY pretty too.

Arrived several days ago and I was excited to use. There are a few convenience features I miss from my 6qt, to include temp choice and a removable cord for storage purpose. No recipe book unfortunately, so I simply half my normal meal ingredients. Otherwise I haven’t had a problem with this smaller version IP. I made spaghetti as the meal test and found it easier to work with given the shorter height of unit. The steam release tab is a thoughtful feature as I have burned myself previously using the original version. This unit works quietly when on; I even had to go closer to hear if my food was cooking! It is aesthetically pleasing and the optional color choice is a plus. I am content with my purchase thus far and looking forward to preparing my next meal.

"I'm obsessed with my Instant Pot RIO Mini! 😍 It's the perfect size for my small kitchen and does SO many things - pressure cooks, slow cooks, sautés, and more. The 7-in-1 functionality is a game-changer. I've made some amazing recipes with it already, like quick chicken tacos and hearty lentil soup. The app has tons of recipes too. Compact and easy to use!" "Cleaning is a breeze too - the pot and lid are dishwasher safe. The mini size means it's easy to store away when not in use. I've been using it almost daily and love how versatile it is. Definitely recommend for singles, couples, or small families!"

I purchased the Instant Pot recently, and it has genuinely improved my daily cooking routine. The multi-function options are very well-designed — pressure cooking, sautéing, slow cooking, and steaming all work flawlessly. Rice, biryani, dal, soups, and even boiled vegetables are cooked perfectly with consistent results. The stainless-steel inner pot is sturdy and easy to clean, unlike non-stick pots that wear out quickly. I also appreciate the safety features: lid lock, pressure release valve, and auto temperature control. The appliance feels premium, user-friendly, and energy-efficient. Overall, the Instant Pot is a reliable, time-saving kitchen appliance, especially for busy households. Totally worth the purchase.

Hasta ahora todo bien.. y es hermosa!!!

The performance of the Instant Pot is exceptional. One of the biggest advantages of the Instant Pot is how much time it saves. Meals that would typically require hours of cooking can be ready in a fraction of the time. Pros: Multi-functional: combines several appliances into one Time-saving: cooks meals quickly and efficiently Easy to clean with dishwasher-safe parts Consistently tender and flavorful results, especially for pressure cooking Compact and modern design Cons: The learning curve can be a bit steep for beginners Limited capacity in smaller models

I live my mini instant pot. It's practical and easy to use.

The product was too heavy compared to my 6qt IP, can I return this?
