In our house it replaced a slow cooker and an old style pressure cooker. I never felt relaxed using the old pressure cooker. I was afraid to leave it unattended for even a minute and I constantly had to fiddle with burner temperature to keep the pressure steady.
Being a vegetarian my wife did not seem to appreciate my new toy, that was until she saw how quick and easy it was to turn apples into apple sauce.
For me, being a meat eater I know I can use other methods and take hours of low and slow to convert a fine chunk of beef into something really spectacular...BUT when it comes to pot roast, chicken, stew or other comfort food it can be ready in short order and after the initial prep, the Instant Pot does not require much attention once the cook is started.
My only regret is Instant Pot now has a model that allows adjustment of the temperature to do sous vide.
