Having trouble comparing the Instant Pot Mini Duo vs Instant Pot Mini Duo Plus vs Instant Pot Mini Lux vs Instant Pot Mini Ultra?

Are you thinking about buying a 3qt Instant Pot and have no idea which one to buy? Or maybe thinking about getting another one (who isn’t?!?!?)?

Instant Pot Mini Versions

I completely admit that between seeing the Duo Plus at Williams Sonoma and then the new 3qt Ultra model, I really began to wonder if I was missing out on with the other models. So I put together this handy table to compare the Instant Pot Mini Duo vs Instant Pot Mini Lux vs Instant Pot Mini Duo Plus vs Instant Pot Mini Ultra.

The Appliances that each model of Instant Pot Mini combines

Slow Cooker Yes Yes Yes Yes
Rice/Porridge Cooker Yes Yes Yes Yes

The Smart Programs for each Instant Pot Mini

Think you’re missing out on a smart program? You can use the Pressure Cook (or Manual) button to start your own. The nifty program buttons are a short cut. Check your manual or recipe for more information about the pressure level and time needed for specific recipe.
