I love this thing I made chicken noodle soup and only had about an hour to get it completely finished. The soup was done in less time I haven't had a chacne to use all the setting yet but can't wait for the chance.

    Instant Pot made my life easier!
    I had been wanting to try out the Instant Pot for quite some time. The pot arrived in perfect condition. I have been using it for about 3 months now and I love it! Pressure cooking feels like a breeze with this. Rice, lentils and legumes come out perfect. Can't wait to try out more recipes.

    Received broken
    I only rate this low because the handle was broken the moment I opened the box . This will prevent it sealing, so is therefore useless.

    Bad quality
    I purchased this as a gift and the item was badly dented on the back. Strange because the box was perfectly fine with no dents.

    Upset Shopper
    I was very happy with my gift selection but very upset that my gift did not arrive in a Walmart box. It could be stolen! How did this happen, I will not order a gift again online from Walmart. This is unacceptable!

    The measurement is not accurate enough
    The functions of this instant pot viva is very similar to my previous instant pot IP-DUO that I bought many years ago. It's a perfect replacement. The only thing I don't like is the measurement inside this inner pot. It's not accurate enough than the previous one. I need the accurate measurements when I cook rice, so I still use the old inner pot for this new cooker, it works out!

    The best pot made.
    I love ,love , love this pot. I purchased three of them as a Black Friday special for Christmas presents. Kept one for myself and I absolutely love it. I use it prob 3-4 times a week. It is so quick and easy to make a complete meal. I have to.d numerous people about my pot and sing its praises, I have made Spanish rice , chicken and rice , spareribs and sauerkraut chicken and dumplings split pea soup , cooed rice made hard boiled eggs etc. I wished I had gotten this a long time ago. I am absolutely in love with it. I recommend it to everyone. You will not be sorry and it will not disappoint.

    Great kitchen appliance.
    Came in the product box but in perfect condition so I was a lucky one. It works perfectly I made yogurt rice and purchaced a air fryer lid for 50 bucks on amazon .The fry lid worked great on my instant pot. I paid only 49.99 for the instant pot so i am extreamly happy.

    Obvious Damage on a Brand New Instant Pot
    Just opened my brand new (not listed as damaged or re-furbished Viva 6qt Instant Pot and it was beautiful til I turn it around to remove tape on drip cup and saw the huge dent in the back. The box seemed fine which leads me to believe that a new box was given to an obvious re-furnished or returned item. Fed-Ex delivered it. I am thankful I had not sent this as a gift, because I would be mortified. As this was a gift to me by family, I want to know what Walmart is going to do about this. I wont trust another shipment based on other reviews on here that sound identical to mine.

    Defective unit so unable to review features
    Unfortunately I had to return my much anticipated Instant Pot Viva. On performing the trial test, it would not stop releasing steam once the pressure indicator popped up. The pressure release valve was in the correct position but it was releasing steam, like a geyser, whether I tested it opened or closed. Rubber gasket was in place so not much else to check. I returned as a defective unit. I'm done with Instant Pot. I had to return the first one I purchased. It was the 8 qt model and was ridiculously heavy.

    Pot is great, gift shipping, not so much.
    This cooker is great which is why I turned around and bought another for my daughter to manage her busy household. The one star removed is because it was supposed to be shipped in a larger Walmart box so the contents would be a Christmas surprise. Unfortunately, it was shipped as is. (and See picture, shipped just like this:( So if youre buying as a gift, keep that in mind. This pot is easy to use, even for someone who had another brand for years that worked entirely differently. My old pot had a nonstick interior which wasn't, so I wanted a genuine instapot with a stainless steel interior. The first recipe I tried was one that stuck and burned in my last pot. This worked like a dream. Next I tried a rice, chicken and cheese recipe...same wonderful result. I haven't tried a lot of recipes but Im looking forward to using it a lot. My daughter, by the way, while not a surprise, was thrilled!

    The Amazing Instant Pot
    The Viva Instant Pot was delivered as scheduled in a very sturdy Instant Pot box. Following its tech book directions, I sauted and then pressure cooked a pork roast in it. Then once it cooled down, I added small potatoes, pressured cooked an additional 10 minutes and I had an amazing meal. The digital controls are similar to a microwave oven, with many choices and presets. It beeps to notify what process is occurring. Other than the beeps, there is no noise like the old fashion pressure cookers my grandparents had. The most enjoyable is the ease of cooking. It heats up, pressures cooks and then cools down, according to your settings, without having to watch it or control the burner heat or turning it off manually. The safety and ease of use is its best feature. I could be distracted and know that it would turn itself off safely. And my food turns out just right...no more overpressured cooked mush. I know that most pressure cooked food provides more nutrition than other ways of preparing food which was the main reason I bought it. I was so pleased with this product that I told all my friends...!

    I became curious about instant pot after watching a lot of video on how easy it is to cook. Till i finally stumble with this. For the right price i decided to buy it and its the best decision i made.. As soon as i get i used it and the food came out nicely. Cleaning is easy too.
