Who the Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker 6 Qt is for

Buy it if: Anyone who wants unattended, timed cooking and will adjust timings upward from stovetop recipes.

Buy it if: Anyone wanting genuinely cold water through an Indian summer day.

Avoid it if: Anyone counting grams -- 440 g empty is heavy against a plastic bottle.
