For real, lentils and beans are a big part of my diet - being able to pressure cook without faffing around on the stove or worrying about things exploding is tempting (finally I can have a crack at making dal makhani). And as you say, SET AND FORGET - huge reason why I use a rice cooker. Being able to do pilafs and the like in the instant pot is very tempting…

Change your life if you meal prep. I usually have two pulce prep’s on the go. Being able to set/forget cook them is such a time/effort saver.

  Yeah I definitely meal prep - fell off the wagon for a bit after I was sick, but now that I’m back from leave I’m keen to get back into it, especially as I might be cutting my work hours further.
  
  Spending less time faffing about in the kitchen is always a win… I think I’m sold. Now to budget for one. Can I ask what size you would recommend for one person wanting to do at least 4-5 serves at a time?

    I got the 8L Duo which does 10-12 serves. It’s a older model so it was cheap on Amazon. I went for the one with the stainless bowl. Reviews said the ones with an airfryer option don’t make great air fryers and they’re bulky to store.

    Thanks - I’ll have a poke around later in the week. Definitely not going for the dual air fryer one as I already have an air fryer. Looking forward to making chickpeas from scratch again 😋
