Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve heard all the hype about the Instant Pot. It’s a whole slew of appliances rolled into one, it makes fast work of endless recipes, and they’re a no-brainer for any at-home cook to use. Guess what? The Instant Pot lives up to that hype and then some.

Today, you can finally hop on the bandwagon at a serious discount. Amazon has knocked almost 30 percent off the multitasking 6-Quart Instant Pot Lux. Once you try it, you won’t be able to cook without it—or at least you won’t want to.

First of all, the Instant Pot Lux is a space- and sanity-saver. It does the work of six different appliances: a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, sauté pan, steamer and warmer. And it churns out dishes up to 70 times faster than individual machines—not to mention all the countertop and cabinet space you’re saving.

Want to whip up a hearty soup or a pot roast for dinner? No sweat—literally, as you won’t be standing over a stove or checking a hot oven every so often. Dump all the ingredients and spices into the six-quart, stainless steel pot, replace the lid, and choose one of 12 one-touch smart programs to get cooking.

Then move on with your life—the Instant Pot Lux has got it from here. It’s designed to self-adjust heating intensity and temperature, monitor pressure, and keep track of time. It’s virtually impossible to mess up any dish.

An Alexa-enabled app can even guide your cooking and offer suggestions for more than 300 recipes—plus, it’ll help you create a grocery list. You’ll find, over time, that your cooking repertoire grows and your meals become more adventurous as the Instant Pot Lux becomes, essentially, your sidekick.

And Amazon’s Daily Deal even includes multi-cooker spices—a selection of favorites by brands like McCormick and more. The Tasty Seasoning Set comes with a blend of five spices, the Slow Cookers Fiesta Chicken Seasoning Mix is an everyday winner for chicken dinner—and then there’s Stubb’s BBQ Rub and more smokey favorites.

Even cleanup is convenient. All of the Instant Pot Lux’s parts are dishwasher-safe, and the stainless steel lid is even fingerprint-resistant. They’ve thought of everything!

“I hate cooking. I hate figuring out what to cook. I hate not having food readily available. ENTER: the Instant Pot,” wrote a happy convert. “It hasn't solved all of my life's problems, but it has made the dinner situation a lot better.”

“My crockpot broke, so I decided to try this as it was the same price as a large crockpot. I regret NOTHING,” wrote a happy shopper. “I can make rice in minutes. Eggs have never been easier to peel. Bone broth doesn't take DAYS. IT EVEN MAKES CHEESECAKE.”

“Revolutionary! I am cooking ALL of my meals in this from now on!,” wrote another. “There is such a huge resource for instant pot recipes, it’s silly NOT to get one. I made jambalaya in it for the first time and I can’t believe how fun it was making this. And so idiot-proof!”
