Overview
Instant Pot builds this Duo Mini as a compact multi-cooker that pressure cooks, slow cooks, steams, sautes, makes yogurt and warms. Inner and outer lids close the pot, and push buttons run automatic programs.
A small household or a cook needing a second pot for side dishes gets many cooking modes in a compact body. The stainless pot goes in the dishwasher and a free recipe app comes with it. The limit is capacity, which suits small batches only.
Who it's for
Couples, singles and small-apartment cooks get a pressure cooker that handles side dishes and small meals. The free recipe app helps newcomers. Families cooking for a crowd will outgrow the pot quickly.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
Sealed with inner and outer lids, the pot builds pressure to cook faster than an open pot, and the same base slow cooks, steams and makes yogurt at gentler settings. Automatic operation means programs are chosen with push buttons rather than set by hand. A small pot comes up to pressure quickly because there is less volume to heat.
