Review on Instant Electric Round Dutch Oven, 6-Quart 1500W, From The Makers Of Instant Pot, 5-In-1: Braise, Slow Cook, Sear/Sauté, Cooking Pan, Food Warmer, Enameled Cast Iron, Included Receipe Book, Blue by Barbara Bailey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Instant Dutch Oven is the new and improved slow cooker.

Because of limitations in my kitchen, I've been using a Crock-Pot slow cooker sanitary exclusively over the last year. To aid in this unexpected pandemic journey, I've accumulated a number of slow cooker cookbooks. Many recipes call for first sautéing on the cooktop.The appeal of this appliance is that sautéing can be done right in the appliance.I've used it twice in the short amount off time I've had it - once to make a glazed ham, and another time for some BBQ chicken legs. I was pleased with the results both times. I am incredibly happy with this cooker. I think it's going to replace my Crock-Pot slow cooker. I look forward to using it again in the next couple days.As others have mentioned, the cast iron pot is heavy, but not unwieldy. The enamel interior surface is easy to clean.It's one star less than perfect. I wish the accompanying product guide had more recipes. I wish it came with a second lid - a glass one. I wish it came with something that would allow me to turn the lid upside-down without scratching and with something to put in the upside-down lid to have a small work surface when the instant Dutch oven is not in use. I wish the manual function was more intuitive.
