This is a review of the Instant pot 20 cup Zest Plus. Amazon needs to do a better job in filtering the reviews based on the item chosen.
We primarily eat Indian Vegetarian cuisine at home and already have a Instant pot pressure cooker.
If you already have an Instant pot, then I think there is no need for this rice cooker at all. But if you do not have the pressure cooker, this one would be a good item to purchase. The Saute option is helpful when you want to make fried rice or some South Indian rice(or barley) based delicacy. The taste of your item depends on the quantity of water that needs to be added and that would vary by person to person. I primarily eat a South Indian rice called Matta(Rosematta) rice and I cook it using the manual mode and It comes out great. So it is a matter of trial and error when it comes to items that are not in the default buttons. The default buttons do work very well as well. Barley came out fantastic. Again, the water to grain ratio is not fixed in stone.
This rice cooker also comes with a steamer option (a perforated pan is included). I have not used the steamer yet, so I can't say anything about it.
Cleaning is very easy since the container has a non stick coating. For sauteing, I use a wooden spatula so I don't destroy the coating. I still am not sure about cleaning the lid. It does seem as if the lid just needs to be wiped clean and there is nothing else that has to be done.

I love it easy to use and clean!
I like that is doesn’t take up to much space , easy to use and cooks food perfectly. I wish the slow cooker timer would be longer. It only slow cooks about 3 -4 hours.

Cooks Jasmine Rice very well! Only thing I wished is for an area to hold the rice scoop.
