The instant pot is probably it for our generation but it irritates me, because while it does lots of things, it does most of them fairly poorly. It’s a mediocre pressure cooker, low quality rice cooker, bad “searing” surface, garbage sous vide application, and so on. It’s good for slow cooking beans and crap. It’s a crock pot 2.0
Edit: it’s a great cooking tool for people who don’t like to cook... Mrs. 8mp uses it all the time
