Just in case people don't know already, this is made by the same manufacturer of Instant Pot and have the same mainboard and body, disassembly comparison here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f09m20BTjvM

I have this Insignia 6qt and have had my first adventures in pressure cooking with it. My advice is that most vegetables/tomatoes will "burn" in the water in the higher liquid temperature in high pressure, where the normal boiling point of 100C can go up to 121C or higher. You can literally burn the ingredients in your stew like I have 6 times already lmao. You'll know once they release an extremely bitter chemical taste that you won't get when simply slow cooking/using the oven.

EDIT: I keep getting replies that this bitterness is quite odd. What I forgot to mention is that I cooked onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes in stock at high pressure AND high temperature for 2 hours or more. At 1 hour you can start tasting the bitterness as well. So to avoid this try to keep cooking times of vegetables within an hour. Kenji Alt of SeriousEats only uses 20 minutes to caramelize 3 pounds of onions: https://www.seriouseats.com/recip...ecipe.html Any more than that and you'll taste disaster lol peace.
Just be sure stainless steel is the outside body color and not the cooking vessel.
Cooking pot is Teflon nonstick

I'm glad I saw your post. I was ready to grab one because I wanted to learn how to can all my garden veggies this year! I'm sure I'll make enough mistakes on my own & don't need any help burning stuff lol.

Pros/cons of this over the Instant Pot brand? I'd rather pay double for quality if Instant Pot is remarkably better, but I'll settle for $25 if the difference is negligible.

and that explains the price, teflon especially on something that cooks this hot is planned obsolescence all the way

Instant pot has detachable power cord, stainless steel pot, a low pressure setting, and counts up once pressure cooking completes so you can keep track of time for natural releases. Some IP models also have features not available on the insignia model, such as sous vide, yogurt etc... I have the insignia 6 qt. and love it, i also purchased the insignia stainless pot so I have both non stick and stainless.

If your veggies are releasing chemical taste after staying in the in the pressure cooker at higher temps for a long time, change your grocery store/farmer's market and not your pressure cooker or it's settings. No veggies should release such taste just bc they are overcooked...

About 20 minutes. The countdown timer will show 15 minutes but also need to account the time it needs to heat and build up pressure inside pot. I just leave mine for about 30 minutes (cook time + natural release).

I've asked about this in AskCulinary and the scientific answer given to me is that increasing temperature catalyzes proteolysis (breakdown of proteins) by the protease enzyme found in both meat and vegetables. The proteins breakdown into further unrecognizable peptides and amino acids that give that extremely bitter chemical taste. Pressure cooking dramatically increases the temperature thus speeding up the proteolysis. My first attempts were for 2 hours, then I turned it down to 1 hour and I still got the bitterness. I now limit it to 30 minutes.

You can make yogurt with a hard lunch cooler and some mason jars if that's the real sticking point.
