Love it!
I love my Insta pot. And since I’m visually impaired, this Insta pot is easy to use on the app. And it also works with VoiceOver on myI would definitely recommend this Insta pot to my friends and family.

Great.
It takes some getting used to when you upgrade from earlier versions of the Instant Pot. I wasn’t very pleased with the pressure cook feature not working unless you close the lid (which isn’t so with earlier versions), but I figured I could use the Sauté option for the same purpose. So, the more I use it, the more I’m convinced that it’s an upgrade from the previous ones. However, I still won’t throw away my first ones.

Substandard
The Instant Pot Pro Max Wifi is substandard. As but one example, Rufus for the Instant Pot Pro Max Wifi states that the fermentation period, when making yogurt, can be adjusted. When making yogurt, there is the pasteurization (boiling the milk), the cooling down period, the addition of the starter, and then the fermentation period, which is about 8 hours or more.This statement by Rufus is false. Once the yogurt selection is pressed, it becomes fixed and irreversible. This is in sharp contrast the Instant Pot Ultra, 3 quart, which allows adjustment of the pasteurization temperature, and the fermentation temperature and time.The fermentation temperature for yogurt is ideally 115 degrees F to 110 degrees F. The Pro Max Wifi warms the milk for fermentation to 105-106 degrees F. Substantially below the ideal fermentation, with no way to raise the fermentation temperature. This is by admission of Instant Pot in its previous manuals, specifically for the Ultra 3 quart.On top of this, if one inadvertently cancels the yogurt selection on the Pro Max, one cannot pick up from where they left off. One has to start from the very beginning, which is the pasteurization or boil process. This is very problematic if one has already put the starter into the yogurt milk. Again, the Ultra 3 quart permits a person to pick up after the inadvertent cancellation.The Pro Max Wifi is also not intuitive to use, despite another observation. Before returning the item to Amazon, I had to refer to the owner’s manual each time I used the Pro Max Wifi. That is not what I would call intuitive.But there is more to the deficiencies of the Instant Pot Pro Max Wifi. That is the internet or wireless connection. The terms of agreement contain highly oppressive, and arguably illegal, terms. It contains a waiver of liability on the part of Instant Pot. One releases Instant Pot from any and all liability regardless of cause, even if Instant Pot is clearly and solely responsible for the harm caused.In addition, the terms of service contain an indemnification provision. One agrees to indemnify Instant Pot for its attorney fees and costs, regardless of liability, again even if Instant Pot is clearly and solely responsible for the harm caused. For example, if the Instant Pot blows up and harms a guest in your home, and culpability rests solely on Instant Pot, and the guest sues. Set aside homeowner’s or renter’s insurance. The purchaser agrees to reimburse Instant Pot for all costs and fees and judgment (including attorney fees) incurred by Instant Pot in litigating the matter. That alone is enough for me to decline the Instant Pot Pro Max, particularly since one of the hallmarks of the device is its internet, wifi and blue tooth connection.None of these deficiencies exist with the Instant Pot Ultra 3 quart and prior to its bankruptcy. Since Instant Pot declared bankruptcy in 2023, its business model has sunk to new lows. And something to stay away from.

Perfect
fast, easy, beautiful, LOVE LOVE LOVE this instant pot almost every day
