With how long it takes to bring an instant pot to pressure, I am not too sure I would ever use it to steam vegetable. Am I missing something on why I would purchase this? I am pretty new to instant pot cooking, hence my honest question.
This is also useful for separating items in the pot or transferring them (I used it for potatoes a bunch, for example), or in my case, when I was using my instant pot for sanitizing my baby bottles and pump stuff, it kept the smaller pieces from falling through.

But I'll be honest, I use the mesh metal steamer baskets a lot more (especially since I have the air fryer lid), and I basically never use this anymore.
Got it for $6.65 back in 2021. Can confirm, never used it.

My biggest complaint on that it's tough to hand wash because it's floppy. That said, most steamed foods won't leave any grease or residues.

I regularly cook hard boiled eggs, a tad easier to bring them to ice bath with something like this.

How long do you cook for hard boiled eggs?

Recipe is very easy. I typically make 10-12 once a week, the kids like them as snacks. Of course keep in the fridge once done.

- put 1 cup or so of water in the IP
- place the eggs in; right now I just use the wire rack that was included with the unit to keep the eggs off the bottom, but in the future I will use this steamer basket
- set the IP for manual, high, 5 minutes
- when the 5 minutes is up, "cancel" and let it sit for 5 more minutes
- when that 5 minutes is up, dump the pressure with the top valve
- remove eggs to an ice bath. Removing the eggs can be tough, the wire rack doesn't prevent them from falling off, I currently use a wire strainer to fish them out but hopefully the steamer basket will help this
- let them sit in the ice bath for several minutes. The idea is to stop the cooking process, however my kids love the eggs when they're still warm inside.

On a stovetop I would let them hard boil for 7 minutes, then remove to the ice bath. The goal is to cook the eggs thoroughly but not so much they get dry/rubbery/green. There are lots of tutorials online that show the impact of cooking time on the "doneness" of the egg.

I find that using the IP is a bit easier, probably around the same total time as actually boiling them (since there are a few minutes where you're waiting for the IP to get up to pressure). I also find that the resulting eggs peel easier, but I will also usually have one or 2 that "explode" (or rather, the shell could be weak, the egg breaks the shell and puff out). Usually I tell the kids to eat those ones first. Could just be the eggs I buy too.

Got one of these about a year ago. Use it on occasion, I like that it fits in both my 3 qt (snuggly) and the 8 qt.
