The 8 Best Instant Pot Black Friday Sales to Add to Cart Right This Second

This is not your mama's Crock Pot. The "8-in-1" model replaces eight kitchen appliances in one handy Instant Pot—it's a pressure cooker. But it’s also a slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté-er, yogurt maker, warmer and a whole lot more. With 13, one-touch Smart Programs, you can cook ribs, soups, beans, rice, poultry, yogurt, desserts (and more, of course) on autopilot.  In fact, you can set it up with Alexa and WiFi so you have access to over a thousand (!) pre-programmed recipes. You can also verify cooking progress, share cooker access with family and receive alerts on your mobile device. Ping! Dinner is served. 

The "Ultra 10-in-1" model replaces, you guessed it, ten common kitchen appliances in one product. The difference between this model and the Smart Instant Pot is that while this one doesn't have WiFi, it does have special programs to make eggs and can safely sterilize baby bottles, jars, utensils and dairy products (which brings this model from 8-in-1 to 10-in-1). It also comes in 3 and 8 quarts in addition to 6, while the Smart only comes in 6.

The Duo is the most popular Instant Pot model. And with the Duo Nova's updated lid, you never again have to worry about whether or not you remembered to close the steam release valve. That's because when you close the Duo Nova lid it automatically seals the pressure valve. And...it gets even easier. With 14 one-touch programs, you can set it for soup, broth, beans, chili, poultry, slow cooking, etc. by the tap of a button. It may not make eggs, cakes or sterilize, but, dang, it can still do a whole lot.

Truth be told, not everyone has the counter (or storage) space for yet another large appliance. No worries: This three-quart mini is just the ticket. But no one said this little guy isn't still a triple sextuple-threat. It can still pressure cook, slow cook, rice cook, sauté, steam and warm. Plus, there are 10 smart built-in programs. Not too shabby for three quarts. 

You've seen them use this fancy tool on Top Chef to make perfectly prepared proteins, and now you can precision cook right in your own home (and for a great price). This sous vide machine clips right onto the side of your Instant Pot insert, but you don't need an Instant Pot to use this tool—just use any stock pot. 

It may look like a blender, but this is so much more—in addition to the usual suspects (milkshakes and smoothies), it can make soup, ice cream, baby food and even milk. And no, it doesn't just blend up soups you've already made on the stove, it cooks them! (And keep them warms while you wait for everyone to come down for dinner.) 

What's an air fryer you ask? Well, it basically makes all your fried favorites without the mess and oil. It's ideal if you want to up your appetizer game (French fries, potato skins, mozzarella sticks), but it's not just for that. This little guy can also cook protein like pork or chicken. It locks in all the flavor but is way healthier than deep-frying. 

Anything your toaster oven can do now, this one can do—and more. And by that, we mean it can also dehydrate, air-fry, rotisserie a whole chicken and bake a cake in a convection style. Any questions?
