    Product Description

    The hardest part of getting dinner on the table is getting everything ready at the same time. The Instant Pot® Dual Action Multi-Cooker solves that with two pots that cook in parallel and Serve Together™ Smart Timing that can automatically coordinate cook times for full, hot, ready-to-serve meals.
    <br>
    <br>
    The 4-quart pot is your go-to for mains, built with Pressure Cooking for speed, Slow Cooking for comfort, Sauté for building flavor, and Steam or Warm when you need a lighter touch. Alongside it, the 2-quart pot keeps sides simple with dedicated programs for White, Brown and Sushi rice, plus its own Warm and Steam functions to round out the meal. Whether you're going for something cozy or a little more ambitious, both pots work together so the whole plate makes sense.

    With 8 cooking functions across two perfectly sized pots, you get the flexibility to mix, match, and build meals your way. Make a saucy main with a grain on the side, prep components for the week ahead, or pull together a full dinner without overthinking the timing. It’s a more intuitive way to cook when you want something complete, not complicated.

    Designed for real life, the Dual Action Multi-Cooker features guided on-screen prompts in multiple languages so you can move through each step with confidence. Both nonstick pots and included accessories are dishwasher-safe for easy cleanup, and 10+ built-in safety features, including overheat protection and an auto-sealing lid, keep things running smoothly in the background.
