Instant Pot Ultra on sale: Save 44% on Amazon

TL;DR: The 8-quart Instant Pot Ultra is on sale for just $99.99 on Amazon. It’s normally $179.95, so you’ll save almost $80.

Instant pots headlined so many of last year’s Black Friday ads, and given their persistent popularity, we have little reason to believe that’ll change this year.

That being so, we’d usually recommend waiting until the day of to score the best deal on a new programmable pressure cooker. But as we were perusing Amazon this morning, we noticed that the retail giant slashed the price of the eight-quart Instant Pot Ultra for one of its Deals of the Day — and honestly, its discount is so high that you shouldn’t bide your time ’til Nov. 29.

You read that right: This is one of those rare cases where waiting until Black Friday might cost you the best price this holiday shopping season. 

If you order the Instant Pot Ultra anytime between now and midnight Tuesday, you’ll save 44% and pay just under $100 for an appliance that typically retails for $179.95. That’s the cheapest it’s ever been on Amazon — and better yet, it’ll arrive in time to help you with Thanksgiving dinner. (PSA: It’s possible to cook a bird with stuffing *and* gravy in one of these bad boys.) 

Capable of replacing ten different appliances in your kitchen, the high-end Instant Pot Ultra features built-in programs for pressure cooking, slow cooking, rice/porridge cooking, yogurt making, cake making, egg cooking, sauté/searing, steaming, warming, and sterilizing.

If you don’t want to use any of those presets, that’s cool: As the first Instant Pot model to offer custom programming, the Ultra gives you the option of using its LCD display and central dial to adjust its parameters for specific dishes. Plus, it’ll remember the last customization on all programs for effortless future meals.

Visit Amazon to order the eight-quart Instant Pot ultra for just $99.99 — a savings of nearly $80.
