I just unboxed my first instant pot. I have the 6qt Pro and everything seems so confusing and advanced compared to the basic instant pot models that most Youtubers cook with. You're the first person to completely take everything apart in the lid without just pointing and saying what everything is. Thank you for a very thorough video.

I just got the Instant Pot Pro for Christmas today...I have never had an Instant Pot before so this is all new to me. I've always been a little nervous about pressure cookers. I came to look for some videos after reading the manual. This video came up first. It's very helpful. Thank you.

@Indigo you can turn off the beeps. When off, push the dial in until you hear a beep (maybe 3 seconds). It will say Unit. Choose F or C by turning the dial. Save/skip by pressing dial again. Choose sound on/off by turning dial. Press dial again to save and return to Unit. Press Start to save and close. Voila!

I watched a different video before I watched yours. I want to tell you that yours is much more informative and also the lighting on the black areas of the top and chassis were good because the items like the pressure release switch showed up. In the other video was just solid black looking. Also, you went into much greater detail on the lid and disassembling the parts from the lid and also on the control panel. After watching your video, I feel very comfortable and getting started. The other one lacked a lot of information. Good job.

i totally agree with others that your video is the very best for helping this grandma get into the modern age. Thank you so much!

Brilliant tutorial! I’ve been using my duo instant pot for years and my last one gave out after almost 5 yrs. Just couldn’t get it hot enough. I decided to upgrade to the Pro and am waiting for it to arrive. I was a little bit intimidated with all the settings and thought it looked really complicated. Your video was outstanding and now I’m so glad I decided to go for this model. Thank you!

This is exactly what I needed to see to loose my fear of using this thing 😆 Thanks so much for making it!

I just purchased an Instant Pot Pro. I love it! I didn't find the beeping annoying. I am a senior and find the sound very helpful. Thank you for your vedio. It helped me immensely.

Your instructions were great. Thank you so much.

When I take apart my Instapot lid, I always put the little pieces - like the little silicone cap - into a small custard cup. This ensures you won't lose anything. Just a thought. Love your posts!! 🥲🥲

[Finerwoman]

Thanks for taking the pieces apart and talking about cleaning on the lid! Great video!

Superb video ... delivered with clarity and confidence with no superfluous information, or hesitations. Excellent job. Very helpful. Thank you. 👍🇬🇧❤️

This is a super informative video, thank you for explaining how to operate the Instant Pot Pro so clearly. I am in the "decision stage" right now, weighing-up the pros and cons of each model, before making my final choice, so I very much appreciated your step-by-step instructions. Thank you again and best wishes, Annie. 🐱

First Instant Pot and I’m a lil intimidated to be honest but your video is super helpful, thank you. Feel a lot better getting it started.

RE: The Sound - Remember those of us who are hard of hearing. I never hear any of the sounds from my IP Duo. Just use your "Sound Off" button. Thanks for this video. I'm definitely going to upgrade to a Pro based on your input.

[Maurandjane]

Thanks for the tips for the sound ! Drived me crazy :X

[billschroedel]

Thanks for the vid. Your tutorial was very helpful. I am going to make my first-ever batch of the Super Gut yogurt tonight. I'm very excited to start this journey.

THANK you for such a valuable video.
I just bought one and like you stated, I would RATHER have the +/- buttons apposed to the knob.
I LOVE it!
When come time to take the lid off, I take a cloth to always wipe the water out of the inside of the lid before I set it into the slot to rest, and leave it to air out, before I put the lid back on . I hold the lid above the sink when doing so. No problem with smells as I leave it open for awhile to dry.
I bet you are so happy in your new kitchen/house now. (smiles)
