Ninja PossibleCooker PRO Plus 9-in-1 vs Instant Pot Pro 8Qt

Buy the Ninja PossibleCooker PRO Plus if you want one wide pot for searing, baking, steaming and slow cooking, and you prefer a nonstick surface that wipes clean. Buy the Instant Pot Pro 8Qt if pressure cooking, sous vide and yogurt are your priorities, and you want a stainless pot that takes hard scrubbing. The Ninja rates slightly higher with owners (4.4 vs 4.0), but the Instant Pot has the deeper track record in pressure cooking and more guided programs. Build is comparable: both are stainless bodies with dishwasher-safe parts.

• Choose the Ninja PossibleCooker PRO Plus if you want a large nonstick pot that sears at up to 500°F, bakes, steams and slow cooks without the learning curve of pressure cooking.
• Choose the Instant Pot Pro 8Qt if you want true pressure cooking, sous vide, yogurt making and 28 preset programs with a stainless pot that won't scratch.
