Inner Pot, Ceramic Non-Stick

New review after buying the 6 quart inner pot: We also have a 6 quart Cosori Electric Pressure Cooker. I took a chance that this might fit even though it apparently doesn't work in all other EPCs... but it fits, PERFECTLY! So now we have all the benefits of the liner for the 8 quart machine, but for our smaller Cosori cooker. I use it mainly with slow-cooker function. These are SO nice for making bone broth, which can form a ring... but with this any ring that forms cleans out really easily with NO scrubbing. Same with making chili! This liner is also great for slow cooked overnight oatmeal! I still don't use it to sauté anything... for that I use the heavier bottomed stainless inner pot that came with the machine. For pressure cooking there's generally enough steam that the stainless inner pots stay pretty clean. I do my rice as pot-in-pot in a round pyrex dish (equal parts rice and water)... usually the 7 cup one. When we've taken what we need for dinner... the plastic storage lid goes on, and into the fridge... no mess at all -- and the rice is perfect every time! But for those long slow cooks that can leave a stainless pot a bit harder to clean up... the ceramic liner is perfection! Both of these liners were the less expensive items that had been returned to Amazon. In both cases I chose ones which indicated no damage, and in both cases I received pots in perfect condition with the original packing materials (the inner styrofoam to protect the pot's rim) intact. Original review of 8 quart pot: We needed a second inner pot and had planned on buying another stainless pot, but found this one on a good sale because of being returned, so decided to give it a try... and we could not be happier! The ceramic interior is VERY easy to clean. I have noted the photos by people where the ceramic has started to break down on the bottom of the pot... this inner pot does not have the thick bottom disk that is a part of the stainless inner pot. I am also a bit surprised that the outside of this inner pot is also covered with ceramic. It would seem it might hold up a bit better if the outside had been plain metal, with the ceramic only on the inside of the pot. So... I will probably NOT be using this with the sauté function... but for cooking down chicken bones for soup, using with the slow-cooker function, etc --- and with that I am hopeful it will last a long time, as it's just a wonderful addition for our IP!

I've been using the ceramic inner pot for my Instant Pot, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Compared to the traditional stainless steel inner pot, the ceramic version is much more convenient to use. Food doesn't stick as easily, making it ideal for a variety of cooking methods, especially sautéing and slow cooking. One of the best features is how easy it is to clean. Even after cooking stews, rice, or sticky dishes, a quick rinse with warm water and mild detergent is usually enough to get it spotless. Unlike stainless steel, it doesn't require heavy scrubbing, and it maintains a clean, smooth surface without much effort. Overall, the ceramic inner pot has made my cooking experience with the Instant Pot even more enjoyable. It's a great upgrade and highly recommended for anyone looking for better performance and easier maintenance.👍👍👍👍👍

I have an insta pot, and although I appreciate the durability of the stainless pot it comes with, I wanted a pot that could be washed in a jiffy when I have it on crockpot mode. This Teflon pot washes easily, soups cook great in it, and it comes with a lid. You may not use this on the pressure cooking mode! I have used it on saute and crockpot modes and it works well.

This is an official replacement product, the fact that it is ceramic non-stick helps a ton when I'm making rice or Indian food. It's not noticeably heavier than the original stainless. I haven't tested it with the saute function yet, but I have a feeling it will make browning meat way smoother. I would not recommend using metal tools in it. I think it will scratch very easily. But I can see myself using this way more often than my standard one now.

Pros: Versatile Use: Works well for pot-in-pot cooking, reheating, and defrosting, fitting perfectly in mini–Instant Pot. A good addition to cook specially rice and other food that sticks to the default stainless steel pot Easy to Clean: Non-stick coating makes clean-up effortless, reducing the risk of food sticking and burning. Durable and High Quality: Sturdy construction, fits well with instant Mini Instant Pot model, and offers excellent performance. Cons: Not Easy to Clean: Initial cooking found it challenging to clean, especially after cooking sticky foods and eventually got better on repeated use with foods with oil. Update :01/02 the non-stick is not that great and food sticks.. If i were to buy again i would go with the original stainless steel pot instead of this nonstick

This is an aluminum pot with great heat distribution with a ceramic non-stick coating on the inside and outside so that no bare aluminum is showing except a thin ribbon at the top edge where it is milled. This coating is completely unrelated to Teflon Brand and all its fluoro chloro chemical relatives. This pot allows me to saute, brown and seer things I can hold in waiting to add in after the other ingredients are done pressure cooking. This pot is great for par-steaming and then crisping and browning pot stickers and gyoza without sticking. This is by far easier to clean than the stainless steel insert that came with my Instant-pot, which I have to use Bon Ami on to get the unsightly protein residue off. This just wipes clean with a drop of Dawn dish detergent and a soft wet dish rag. I have NOT yet used this pot under pressure because that is not how I envisioned using it. For batch cooking it's just the best. At $16.99 plus tax this was a great value for such a work horse of a pot. This insert fits my 6 Quart Instant-Pot Nova Plus.

Good product, fit perfectly.

Me gustó mucho que el arroz no se pega como en la de acero inoxidable, además de que me permite hacer dos guisados en poco tiempo, sin necesidad de tener que desocupar la otra olla.

My rice cooker died so I've been using my instant pot instead but the rice tended to stick to the stainless steel bowl. I bought this and now the rice doesn't stick. 10/10.

I got it for my crockpot, and it works. Good quality.

In an apartment with limited kitchen space, the Instant Pot has proven to be a fantastic purchase. Pressure cooking and slow cooking tougher meats for use in curries and soups, and rice cooking, all in one device. This ceramic pot is not quite non-stick, but it is way better for rice than using the standard stainless steel pot. We have yet to use it for anything else, but we bought this ceramic pot instead of a good quality rice cooker after our experience with using the Instant Pot for rice. We've only ever had cheap rice-cookers, so a comparison between using an Instant Pot and an expensive ($100 plus) rice cooker is not something I can give you. I can say, however, that the rice we produce from the Instant Pot has a great chewiness that I have never experience in a restaurant. And with the same washing, and then rice to water ratio (1:1), we get consistently great results. I'm sure it's possible to use the "keep warm" option on the Instant Pot, but any additional heat takes the rice too far and it loses the chewiness, so we always take the rice out of the pot after cooking. You don't need to scrub, with a nylon scrubbing sponge, this ceramic pot the same way you do with the stainless steel, food residue lifts off quite easily. And you don't need to use vinegar to remove the white marks that the stainless steel pot has after cooking.
