Their 8-litre Duo Crisp has completely replaced their rice cooker, after a little trial and error with the consistency.

positive

Has an Instant Pot Duo Crisp and likes the stainless pot, finding it easier to clean than a coated Ninja pot.

positiveeasy to clean

Says the Duo Crisp's air fryer is a pain compared with regular ones because the basket bottom is likely to flake.

mixedcoating peeled

Had a regular Instant Pot before the Duo Crisp and loves it; being disabled, it makes cooking much easier.

positive

Their 8-qt Duo Crisp takes 45 minutes at most, usually 30, to reach pressure when full of cold liquid and frozen bones.

mixed

Got the burn notice the first two times cooking in their 8-qt Duo Crisp even following recipes.

negative

Their Duo Crisp makes the same tapping noise as another owner's, though far less intense.

mixedloud

Has an 8 quart Duo Crisp with air fryer lid for one person and finds it handy for roasting.

positive

Highly recommends their 8 qt Duo Crisp for a family of 4: big enough to air fry a 5.5 lb chicken.

positive

Finds their Presto air fryer does a better and faster job than their Duo Crisp.

mixed

Calls their Duo Crisp a crap pressure cooker where food sticks to the bottom, and only an ok air fryer.

negative

Replaced a Duo Plus with a Duo Crisp and recommends the Crisp, which heats up fast, though the upper tray is a struggle.

positive

Is super happy with their 8 quart air fryer/IP combo and saves counter space.

positive

Uses the air fryer lid on their Duo Crisp almost daily and finds it awesome, though they miss the rice button it dropped.

positive

Bought a 6-qt Duo Crisp on sale for the air fryer lid, which works very well; large roasts fall apart for shredding.

positive

Their 8-qt Duo Crisp lives on the counter and gets used twice a week; they feel they got their money's worth.

positivegreat value

Loves their Duo Crisp, which stays on the counter for baking and air frying as well as pressure cooking.

positive

Keeps an 8-qt Duo Crisp on the counter next to their Duo and uses it basically every day.

positive

Hates the Duo Crisp's air fryer lid, which throws errors and shuts off, so has used it only as a pressure cooker for 3 years.

negativebroke down

Has used their Duo Crisp all the time for three years without problems.

positive

Bought the Duo Crisp expecting to pressure cook more but uses the air fryer daily; a great purchase.

positive

Has two Duo Crisps, which helps with multiple batches or pressure cooking and air frying at once, especially at Thanksgiving.

positive

Loves their Duo Crisp after 4 or 5 years without problems, though the air fryer is compact and better for one or two.

positivesmall capacity

Loves and uses their Duo Crisp all the time, but the deep round pot makes single-layer air frying difficult.

mixedsmall capacity

Has the Duo with the air fryer lid and likes the stainless inserts, no non-stick to flake, and that the round shape takes other steel baskets.

positive

Their new Duo Crisp AF8 has thrown a C9 error since day one, making the air fryer unusable, and support didn't answer.

negativebroke down

Loves their 8 qt Duo Crisp with separate pressure and air fryer lids; it works like a small convection oven and replaced most regular oven use.

positive

Uses their Duo Crisp at least twice weekly but the air fryer part only monthly, since the pot's size and shape limit single-layer air frying.

mixedsmall capacity

Uses their 6 qt Duo Crisp only as a pressure cooker: the extra lid saves no space and the air fry space is too small, so a separate Ninja is easier.

mixedsmall capacity

Loves their Instant Pot Duo Crisp and uses both the pressure cooker and air fryer multiple times a week for two.

positive

Gave away the air fryer lid of their Duo because it was rarely used and took too much space; the lid isn't what the ads promise.

negative

Likes their Duo Crisp: the basket is small but it's super easy to clean and never becomes a greaseball.

positiveeasy to clean

Had the Duo Crisp and hated the air fryer: nothing decent-sized fit, a single shelf, and a heavy lid to store.

negativesmall capacity

Loves their Duo Crisp; the air fry basket is small but it does both pressure cooking and air frying very well.

positive

Did a first slow cook in their Duo Crisp, a leg of lamb for six hours on high, and it was great; the air fryer lid works as a mini oven.

positive

Their Duo Crisp works perfectly fine after a couple of years, often using both the air fryer and pressure cooker.

positive

Used their new Instant Pot Duo Crisp 5.7 L to cook a whole chicken and is very happy with it so far, though a 2.3 kg bird was a tight squeeze.

positive

Their Instant Pot Duo with separate pressure and air fry lids, plus an extra pot, makes family dinner easy enough that their teens use it too.

positiveeasy to use

Has made bread, yogurt and whole broiler chickens in their Duo pressure cooker and air fryer with swappable lids.

positive

Their Instant Pot pressure cooker with the air fryer lid almost never seals for small batches of rice, so it keeps heating and burns it, unlike their old basic model.

negative

Their Duo Crisp doubles as a small air fryer and Instant Pot; cooks rice in it all the time and it works great for the family.
