  • My latest kitchen wish list includes a rice cooker, and air fryer, and lately a pressure cooker.

    Normally, I'm all about single purpose appliances - do one thing, do it well.

    Except cupboard / surface space would then be a problem.

    So: all-in-one shenanigans (and if so, which one) or curb my window shopping and stick to one of three (again, if so, which one).

  • Instant pot is a pressure cooker par excellence and rice cooker too - the latter works just as well as other rice cookers I've used but I'm no expert.

    You can get instant pot air fryer lids too that make it truly all in one, but they are hard to come by in this country

  • Instant Pot pro crisp + air fryer is what you want.

    The problem with most pressure cookers is that for rice, you need to cook a sufficient quantity at a time. For example, 200g of dry rice (for 2 people) is just too small a quantity to cook in a 5l pressure cooker.
    Great for large family quantities though.

    Takes up a bit of space, but I would go for a removable air fryer lid rather than the combination type, as far easier to maintain and keep clean.

    Also does fun and delicious things like pressure cooking a whole chicken, then air frying in situ for super tender chicken with crispy skin, or pressure cooked bbq short ribs finished with the air fryer.

    FWIW, I have a small seperate rice cooker, and a 2 drawer air fryer as well.
