Awesome pressure cooker
The media could not be loaded. It’s super easy to use. If you read the manual you can understand everything. I cook black beans every weekend so I’m very pleased this pressure cooker works super good. It’s easy to clean too. I like the way it has a bottom for the pressure goes out so it’s safety. It’s fast too depends on the minutes you set up. I’m very happy to find this pressure cooker

Love this Instant Pot Rio.
Very happy with this purchase. This Rio Instant Pot is just the right size for the two of us. Not small but not huge either. The new design is sleek & easier to store. Takes a little time to heat up which is possibly normal. Very easy to use, has everything we could possibly want in a slow cook/pressure cook gadget. The inner pan is stainless which is better health wise. Clean up has been no problem as I give it a rinse after the pot cools down. Seems to be well made, did the pre cook water check & there was no smell. The price was good & so far very pleased with this product. Recommended for a small family or just for two.

Terrible heat, terrible pressure building, equipment failures. Do not buy.
So my Instant Pot Duo Plus started getting burn alarms a lot (like preheating on saute with just oil in there) after about 3 years of heavy use so I decided to get a new Instant Pot. I'm a travel nurse and move every 3 months so the more package features (slimmer, disconnectable power plug, no nob) sold me on this one... and I'm supremely disappointed.First off, I've had it for 2 months - don't use it as much during warm weather so wanted to make sure it wasn't user error. I've done about 8 meals now and it's miserable to use. Here are the primary issues so far:1) It takes a forever to heat up. Going from saute to ready to use takes easily 2x as long as my previous old one - over 10 minutes to reach "ready" status but I'm having smoke from avocado oil before that (high smoke temp). If you throw your stuff in early it cools expenontially and doesn't get back to temp. It took me 20 minutes to brown 2lbs ground beef (after waiting 10, minutes for it to heat up and oild started to smoke).2) It takes absurd amounts of time to reach pressure. This is something every new user has a learning curve with - I'm a vet user so trust me when I say a long time - 30 to 45 minutes average. I've had it take over an 1 hour a few times. You might as well slow cook because this combined with issue 3 make trying to pressure cook tedious and useless.3) Equipment failures. So far the "steam bobber" (not sure of the real name) has stuck 2x requiring me to jiggle it loose so that it would pop up and it would actually start to build pressure. This initially happened on my second cook. This makes you have to constantly check on the thing on this already crazy long heat time and when you have to "help it" the stream is blasting out so hard you are at hight risk of burning yourself....Additionally, when using quick release it blasts out sauce/food from the vent requiring me to cover it with a paper towel to save the walls. These are the same recipes I used in the same quart size Duo Plus and never had this happen a single time.Basically I waited too long now to return it so as mentioned above this thing will likely be relegated to a glorified slow cooker and I'll be looking to Ninja for my next pressure cooker because I can't support a company that puts trash like this in the market because there is no way they didn't know about these issues.

Defective Pot
The Rio is a real disappointment. I did the water test and I thought it was never going to seal. It finally did seal after a several minutes of a lot of steam coming out of the valve and making a loud hissing noise. I have not been able to cook anything in it though. I’ve tried potatoes and beans and rice and always get a “food burn“ error message. I’ve done all of the suggestions with this error message and nothing works. I ordered this several months ago so it’s probably too late to return it. I’ve always had the instant pot duo, and it’s a real workhorse, I love it. I gave my duo instant pot to one of my kids and bought the Rio because I like the black color and thought it would look better in my kitchen.UPDATE: I did end up contacting Instant Pot support. They had me redo the water test and this time the water was barely lukewarm when I got the food burn error message and there was a burning smell. The instant pot support person agreed the pot was defective and said a new one would be sent to me. I should receive it within the next 14 days. I’m pleasantly surprised their customer support is so good.
