Hi Ed 😀
I kind of consider myself a kind of pressure cooker expert.
I'd be leery of the instant pot, because it could be a passing fad.
They go out of business, and Pow, you can't get replacement parts.
Get a long time brand name, like my 30+ year old presto. I still get replacement parts for it at local ace true value Fresno Ag hardware.
Not all recipes are juicy. You can make say meatloaf in them. Yep !
Put meatloaf in stainless steel bowl, that fits in cooker. Put needed water in cooker, then bowl with meatloaf, and process. Presto ! You have meatloaf without turning oven on. Real handy in summer, when you don't want to heat your kitchen up.👍👍
Kat. Looking for appliance parts you can't find locally ? There's a place hear in California you can order from. It's called : the gourmet deposit company. They have parts and accessories for all kinds of appliances. There number is : 800-424-6783 I imagine they have a website.
There's my two cents worth.
