Hey guys! I'm Lisa Childs, welcome back! In this new video, I'll be sharing with you my honest thoughts on the Instant Pot Air Fryer vs a Pressure Cooker Air Fryer Lid. My lid is the Mealthy Crisp Lid but this video applies to the concept with any brand of air fryer lid such as the Instant Pot Duo Crisp, Mealthy Crisp Lid, Crock Pot Express Crisp, PowerXL Grill Air Fryer Combo, or Ninja Foodi 9-in-1 Pressure Cooker and Air Fryer.
A pressure cooker air fryer combo can be a good alternative to having two full appliances, but I'll tell you why I prefer one over the other and when you should buy an air fryer over an air fryer lid or vice versa. Air fryer lids are separate appliances that sit on top of your Instant Pot or pressure cooker and turns the Instant Pot into an air fryer.

You made the instant pot air fryer sound like the Cornballer from Arrested Development.

@Rainwatercolor 3 года назад

My duo crisp InstantPot came with the air fryer. I'm older and the air fryer weighs a LOT! It cooked everything beautifully but I bought a Dash air fryer for about $75 that is what I use all the time for air frying. I still do my pork ribs in the instant pot with that air fryer because it can handle the volume of meat so it can all be cooked at the same time. I would skip the one that comes with the InstantPot and get the Dash to handle the air frying.

I just got the 11-1 Instant Pot Last Week I just decided to grab the big Instant Pot :) I look forward to cooking soon some amazing food. Thanks for your time and help in these videos

@Rainwatercolor 3 года назад

UPDATE: I Just got through about a week of back and forth with InstantPot Customer service trying to decide if I had a defective steam valve on my pot. They were awesome and ended up saying they'd send me a new pot. Their customer service was just wonderful! I had also purchased the extended insurance for it from Amazon Asurion and they ended up refunding my money so I could buy the next level up due to InstantPot being out of stock on my model they replaced with a brand new upgraded Pro model!!! It was worth more so I had to bump up the insurance. Worth every penny. I first contacted InstantPot Customer service that resolved everything, that way I didn't have any claim on the Asurion policy. Always go through the Manufacturer first to see if they'll resolve it. Wonderful results, great company.

We got the Duo Crisp for Christmas and love it. I like being able to pressure cook something (ie a whole chicken) to lock in the juices, and then just pop the fryer lid on and get it crispy. We have a stand alone air fryer oven that we can't do that with. That's why I prefer the IP Duo Crisp.

My issue with the stand alone IP air fryer is that it has a (toxic) nonstick coating on all of the parts that touch food. The reason why I love my Instant Pot is that it is non toxic- its internal parts are stainless steel. The day IP makes a stand alone air fryer with a stainless steel inside, I will buy one. Until then, I will continue to use my Mealthy lid.

@karine8738 2 года назад

OMG I just found your channel today and you have helped me so much with just two videos. I was so happy to hear you say that the 6 quart Insta pot is sufficient. You have a few more people to feed with yours, but I always like to make a little more so that I can freeze it. I cook mostly for myself. I also wanted to get the air fryer and didn’t know which one to get. I have been waiting over a month to buy my instant pot save enough to get the one with the air fryer lid and that was a quart. I didn’t know if I should get the inlet independently or on it or if it was even any good. Today you have save me so much money and I can take my ChristmasGift cards and get lots more than I thought I could with it. This week I’m headed to target to get my 6 quart instant pot. And if I have enough left over I will get an air fryer. Thank you thank you thank you! You definitely have a new devoted followers to your channel!

@eringraham2344 3 года назад

Great comparison. I bought the Instant Pot Duo Pro Air fryer, and your recipes and advice have been invaluable. Everything you said in this video is right on the money! I love my duo pro and love the air fryer lid, but may pick up an air fryer stand alone on the merits of this video (which just cemented what I already thought) Love the air fryer lid - but the stand alone seems more robust....definitely the instant pot is a must! LOVE THAT THING! THANKS TRIED TESTED AND TRUE! You live up to your name!

Thank you for your videos. My husband bought me an instant pot duo crisp as part of my Christmas present. Today we have made tamales with leftover turkey. I used the sauté and pressure cook function and a 2 day job took 1/2 a day. I am now pressure canning tamale sauce in it.

@jaytibbles2223 3 года назад

The Instant Pot air fryer container holds 2 to 3 times as much as the others. Had both! The Mealthy cycles the heat on and off to maintain temperature. The IP basket is easy to clean. I wipe it out after every use. Wipe the liner pot every 3 to 4 times. I line the IP bottom with aluminum foil to catch the grease and the crumbles!

@robertoboertje353 2 года назад

I use them both. Very much versatility in my kitchen! For instance: Instant cook my baby back ribs then grill them with the fryer lid. In the meantime the french fries are getting ready in the air fryer. Some side salades and voila!

@camilovera94 3 года назад

You need to try the duo crisp, the main advantage is that you can use it as soon as you finish pressure cooking. It also has a better basket. I wouldn’t use that air fryer lid you showed in the video, but the duo crisp is magical!

@mrses44 2 года назад

Just purchased my new Instant Vortex Plus, & my husband cooked chicken thighs & legs. The chicken was great, & what I loved was that it made drippings & fond. I very rarely make gravy, but I decided to make gravy with the leavings - & it was great as well. My husband is the main chef in our home, but I'm also looking forward to using it.

I love my Mealthy airfryer lid. I have a pressure cooker that is not a instant pot so I use that to put the the airfryer lid on. Cleaning up the instant pot before you use the fryer lid is no different than having to clean more than one pan at a time. I only have to cook for one person so I don't need a bigger air fryer.

I had the Insta-pot already so I got the Insta-pot fryer lid to safe space. For me it’s great! I generally only cook for 2 and we are full time in an RV so space is an issue. Clean up really isn’t that big of a deal, I would have to clean the stand alone after every use and either way all appliances are stored in the pantry so would have to be gotten out.

@mommysmetal4684 3 года назад

@Attirbful 2 года назад

I just got the IP Duo Crisp and Air Fryer and love it! I am not getting rid of my Mealthy lid, though, because it is a really perfect addition to the IP, in particular for making lasagna etc., when you cook something in the IP and give it a little broil with cheese on top at the end. With two IPs, both with a Mealthy lid and the IP Duo Crisp, I have so many options now without having to stop and clean in between cooking. I can make lasagna in one and air fry some spring rolls as an appetizer at the same time. Also: you do not need to use the IP for the Mealthy lid! You can fit it on any right sized stainless steel pot as well….

I have an instant pot duo crisp, 6 qt Walmart model and the instant pot vortex 6qt stand alone air fryer. I reach for the standalone a lot more than the air fryer lid.

@alk3myst 2 года назад

The Ninja BT770 with the optional Food Prep (VSK700), a Ninja Air Fryer Max XL and the 6Qt Instant Pot Ultra makes our cooking easy peasy for the 5 of us. We recently added an Instant Pot Air Fryer lid (amazon has them new open box for $35 right now) just to have since we are using the air fryer a lot and sometimes have two different things we want to heat up. We only use our oven for 'pizza nights', but the air fryer does great reheating the pizza the next day for an easy Saturday lunch and it's nice and crispy with melty cheese. Our favorite gifts to give are the Air Fryer or Instant Pot to friends and family. We are sending an 8 QT Instant Pot Pro to a large family in Colombia to help them make meal times easier. Love these videos this weekend.

@karenasawa433 3 года назад

I have limited space in my kitchen and I only have space for a multi-cooker or air fryer. I went with the IP duo crisp 8 quarts so that there’s a larger surface area for air frying. If I need to pressure cooker a smaller quantity I would use the pot in a pot method. If you’ve got space on your kitchen, I agree that a standalone air fryer would be a superior option. But I’m very happy with the air frying lid that comes with the duo crisp. It performs well and its space saving.

@sonalnagda4520 2 года назад

does it crisp well ?

@ceciliahuston1097 3 года назад

Thanks for the comparison, have been debating on getting the IP air fry lid. One question is do you HAVE to use the inner container that comes with the IP Air Fryer lid? It seems that you should be able to use a trivet or screen on bottom of the original liner, and you would gain more space. I have a NuWave Air Fryer, and the few times I've used it there was a strong plastic smell coming from it that didn't go away even after trying it 3 or 4 times. So it sits gathering dust. Also, tried doing tater tots in it, and after shaking/stirring halfway through, ended up with basically hash browns. :( One other question, do you HAVE to keep everything in a single layer? I thought the point of a 6 quart air fryer was you can (mostly) fill the basket. With 4 people in the house, I don't have all night to do batches. (For small amounts, I do have an air fry option on my toaster oven that works fine, so if only a small batch is needed, that works as well.)

@MKLMom 3 года назад

You’ve changed my mind! I may look for an air fryer that’s a little smaller the the giant one you have 😊, but I’m definitely feeling the stand alone!

@LindaSChastain 3 года назад

I see your reason for a stand alone air fryer verses an air fry lid. I was tickled to give my air fryer to my daughter and son n' law to use my new air fry lid on the one pot. I do usually only cook for 2, my husband and myself. The air fry lid has a fan circulating air in the one pot, cooking all around food. I used one pot in motorhome to cook casserole then used air fry lid to melt cheese and crisp up the top. I don't have room for additional appliances so the lid works great. I've used a nuwave for years, air circulation cooks the food evenly which I like with an air fry lid. Sending warm wishes. I love you all in Christ. Hugs.

@raydawn675 Год назад

I have that exact same air fryer lid and I can tell you, you do not have to use an instant pot with it. it will work with any oven rated Dutch oven or pot. Just leave it sitting on top of your stove as it will get absolutely incredibly hot you need to be very careful of. But so much easier to use and not worrying about where to put the hot lid as it's all done on your stove top you don't need to buy that big cumbersome air fryer.

@ExodusFX 3 года назад

It looks like you have the old version of the Crisplid. The newer one comes with a deeper basket. Also, you don't have to use the tall trivet with the lid. Use the standard IP one if you want more distance from the heating element. If you lift the lid and give the food a quick flip or a toss, then the time doesn't reset. Just hit start and it continues where it left off. I also don't think there's a big difference in cleaning. Personally, I'd never let my air fryer sit unwashed after use, so I have to clean the whole basket every time. As someone with a small kitchen, the Instant Pot stays on the counter (it can do so many things) and the air fryer gets stored away until it's needed.

@stuartstuart866 3 года назад

Yup, my observations as well. Some unnecessary drama added in regards to operating the Mealthy. If you place your Mealthy next to your stove, you won’t have to frantically search for a place to put it. Complaining about cleaning the Instant Pot liner but choosing to not clean the other unit? The presentation reminded me of an exaggerated late night infomercial.

I’m seeing more convenience w/ much easier cleaning than the lid & small basket surface I’ve been dealing with. So You’ve helped me decide to make the switch.. Thanks Again, You Rock ❤Happy Thanksgiving to You & your Family

@izzy9132 3 года назад

I bought a Mealthy Crisp Lid for just one reason: It uses 1000 watts while all the stand alone Air Fryers and IP LId use 1500 watts. When I move I'll replace it with a 1500 watt stand alone model. The Vortex looks wonderful. The square shape of the basket will provide a lot more cooking surface area than the round and oval ones and your review was real great and thorough.Besides that the shape and stainless steel front looks really attractive if I choose to leave it on the counter Thank you Lisa

@SunyJim 3 года назад

I went with a duo crisp, 6qt on sale for $100 at Walmart because everybody I talked to said that they wanted to finish their meats etc, they pressure cooked by broiler or BBQ. I just slap the duo crisp lid on and it's done. Also Instant pot duo crisp lid comes with a trivet to put the lid on. Also I just have no room for a second massive plug in machine on my counter. Instant pot is big enough appliance to add, but it replaces rice cooker and crock pot (in theory).

The actual instant pot air fryer lid actually addresses most of your complaints about your lid. Yes it would be nice to see inside but having a lid that comes on and off easily, a timer that continues to cook without restarting, and a proper basket setup is better with the instant pot version. I would not recommend your air fryer lid after seeing it in use. Great vids keep them up.

@SuperCrandell 2 года назад

I would agree, that if you have the space and the budget the stand alone would work. I also agree that for the amount of people stand alone works well. But for me being in a condo the lid has worked for me though the downside the instant pot air fryer lid basket is a poor design. I have found using a steamer basket helps as well.

I haven’t tried mine out yet, the air fryer lid, but I eventually will. I would have never got it at full price, because no…I did get the IP one for $42 on Cyber Monday. Happy to add it to the collection. I don’t use my IP as much as I would like, and maybe that’s because it did not come with a recipe book of any sort. That might have helped. I got the IP and the Lid at deeply discounted prices, so they weren’t a complete waste. At least the lid will give me some idea of whether I might want to invest in an actual air fryer in the future and at the same time make my IP more useful for now. Thank you for the video, it’s always useful to get others opinions. Happy New Year 🎊

Help, Lisa! I just got an Instant Pot. I tried Chicken Alfredo. We thought we must have EXTRA liquid to cook. It called for a can of cream of chicken soup, 1/2 c water and 8 oz of cream cheese. Then added an extra cup of water to make sure there was enough water to "steam" it. It came out runny, which I was afraid of... How much liquid or in what form of solidity, is enough? I wanted a nice thick sauce but got a runny flavorless one.

Not sure which Ninja air fryer you have, but I have the Flip. It’s amazing - once it cools down, you can flip it up, and it only takes up about 6” of counter space. It also works as a toaster (up to 9 slices at a time)! I generally use my Ninja Flip air fryer, Instant Pot, and ONE burner on my stove. I only occasionally use my microwave.

I’m going to share with hubs that you actually have more IP’s than me and he will laugh 😂. We originally owned the IP Zing to do rice and porridge and it is way too time consuming so when they were selling the 3 quart older model IP’s off, I scored one and he LOVES his porridge and how well the rice works. I laugh because even though I took 5 years of cooking, I am-a crap cook but with the IP oi can cook great food.

I've looked at these lids once or twice when I was cooking something in my IP that would have been great with a crispy crust, but at the price, and for the number of times I would use it, it's easier to cook in my IP, decant the food into a high pie dish or whatever and put it in my IP air fryer (mine is the one with the 'window' in the front). Thanks for this comparison though, I really appreciate it.

@stuartstuart866 3 года назад

I’m really happy with my Mealthy and seeing through the lid is very helpful. I don’t have nearly the drama that the presenter had, when I use mine. One thing that she said, I will vouch for, and that is the limited cooking area. You will have to cook multiple batches if you are feeding more than two people.

@cherub112361 2 года назад

I have the Duo crisp and a stand alone air fryer (Emeril 360). If I have to defrost chicken or beef and then cook, my Instant Pot wins hands down. But my 360 has the baskets and rotisserie mount, which works well for chickens larger than the Instant Pot can hold, kebabs and ribs. I'm not even sure why I have a stove anymore LOL!

@jzthompson9598 3 года назад

No need to whine about cleaning the stainless steel pot. It's dead simple to clean, and can be used with parchment. I clean it by adding water, a drop of dishwash liquid, hitting steam for a minute, and everything just wipes clean. Swirl and dump in the sink. I never, never put my pressure cooker away. I use it every day and got the lid for browning and crisping immediately in the pot. Love it. Would never bother with yet another appliance. The lid comes with a silicone trivet to rest it on, so no burning.

@halvorsengirl 3 года назад

The Air fryer Lids seem awfully cumbersome. The Duo Crisp lid is just so easy to grab and set on the top and it sets off to the side on its cool little launching pad. Having to plug in another cord would be a deal-breaker for me. I have a small kitchen and the duo crisp takes up less real estate than any other combo. Love your videos!

@richlaue 3 года назад

The metal insert with the IP brand forces the hot air downward around the food, then returns along the edge of the pot. I have the IP because of space.

@Joani161 2 года назад

The Mealthy lid or IP Fryer lid is mainly good for browning food after pressure cooking it seems.

Actually the air fryer heats from the top also. And you yourself said how hot the IP is after cooking. That stainless pot is insulated on the bottom. Really better all around being metal, NOT plastic.

What is the difference between an Instant Pot model that comes with an air fryer and a regular Instant pot and buying the lid separately?

@dachshunddadbob6765 Год назад

I purchased a counter top oven with the air fryer setting as it allows you to see your food cook through the glass door, but also purchased the Mealthly Crisp Lid specifically for crisping foods I make in the IP.

I think you'll find the texture and the way an air fryer cooks is definitely different from doing it on the stove. A lot less mess, and much healthier since it uses less grease (or none at all!) If you ever get the chance, definitely try it!

I haven't used my frying pans since getting my instant air fryer. I diced potatoes , mixed in just under a tablespoon of oil and Airfry . Ten to fifteen minutes and I have hash browns for breakfast, shaking halfway. We did sausages this week, pork chops, shrimp, burgers. You will be surprised.

You can get the airfryer lid as a complete halogen oven with it's own bowl and stand for about the same price, but gives you a bigger cooking volume than your instant pot would hold.

6 egg roll 370-12min insta vortex plus anything more is too crispy or lightly burnt. I also use a small 8" or 9" round cake pan to cook stuff in! NO MESS! but my upgraded vortex plus i can use same or disposable aluminum cake pans (3-$1.00)

@FoxDreams 3 года назад

It would seem to me the stand alone would also have a lot of oil, just not as visible due to the dark interior...if not, somehow it's not cooking it fully? The cleaning thing would be necessary regardless of which you use. I think family/portion size and space availability would be the deciding factors. I will probably go with the lid as I live in a home roughly the size of a postage stamp, and space saving is a must. Plus it's just me and my youngest son and he won't live with me for ever...

@sharikaj04 3 года назад

This is great info because I have both. That air fryer lid looks dangerous and get very hot.

@LindaSChastain 3 года назад

Not really. I use mine, set it on stove top and it cools down quickly. I made a family size casserole in glass which I heated in one pot then used airfryer lid to melt cheese and crisp the top. I've used the NuWave oven for 25 years so it's similar with the hot air circulation.

@bettinadietrich9304 3 года назад

I have not touched my stand-alone airfryer since I got the IP Duo Crisp and I use the airfryer feature daily. The comparison is misleading as the Duo Crisp has more to offer than the "lids" offered, i.e. I am dehydrating chilies right now and the IP basket is more convenient than the trivet/basket contraption you showed. I airfried a 2.6 kg chicken in the Duo Crisp, I don't think it would have fit height-wise in the Vortex. The liner of the Duo Crisp is not getting hot at the top when using the proper IP lid and I can airfry on two levels. Just my opinion.

@KzooBeerGirl 3 года назад

I have a Duo Crisp as well but I've not used the Air Fryer lid yet because I don't know how long to cook stuff and what temp I'm supposed to use. Do I just follow the same directions I would for baking?

@@KzooBeerGirl No, do not use the same times.

I think you need to compare the Instant Pot Air Fryer Lid with the Air Fryer.

They may not have been available when you did this review but take a look at some of the more recent reviews. Thanks.

Just came across this video on my feed. I just got an air fryer for Christmas. Total newbie using this appliance so trying to find whatever information I can on how to use my new air fryer. In reading a lot of various articles, reviews, comments, etc. people talk about spritzing the food with oil before cooking to keep the food crunchy and preventing drying out the food during cooking. Was wondering if you do this and your preference of doing it or not. Your video doesn’t show you doing that.

@Lisa.Childs 3 года назад

If it has been pre-fried (like most frozen convenience foods) I don't usually spray it with anything. If it's already dry (like a dry wonton wrapper or broccoli), I will usually add a little bit to help it crisp up. But it's just a little bit! So much less than if I did it in a fryer, oven, or stove top!
