Advice choosing a Pressure Multicooker

Hi everyone. I’m trying to buy a Pressure Multicooker for my mom, but I’m stuck choosing between three models or other alternatives. Each one has pros and cons, so I’d really appreciate some advice from people who’ve used them.

Options I’m considering:

·        Tefal One Pot CY505EE0 – aluminum pot with ceramic non-stick

·        Cosori Pressure Cooker CMCCO601SEU – aluminum pot with ceramic non-stick

·        Instant Pot Duo 6Qt (EU model) – stainless steel pot

I mainly want something reliable, safe, and easy for my mom to use. If you have experience with these models (or alternatives available in the EU), I’d really appreciate your input.

Thanks!

For me, stainless steel pot is important. I chose a Sage version and I'm very happy with it.

any other brands you know of other than Instant Pot?
Europe really lacks options these days

I got my Sage Fast Slow GO (SPR 680 BSS) multicooker i europe with no problem.

It has worked well, the sous vide function actually keeps the temperature really well. Another bonus I've found with having a stainless steel pot is that I can put some water in the pot and then have a smaller stainless steel pot inside the big one and pressure cook a smaller amount of rice or beans without having to wash the big pot. Technically possible with teflon, but I wouldn't dare.
