I've an Instant Pot competitor: the 8 qt Power Pressure Cooker XL. I'm not all that enthused with it, mainly because the menus are too restrictive. For example, when I want to make brown rice, the rice option doesn't cook long enough to get the rice properly cooked. And you can't change the maximum time under that option. Instead I've had to select the "Beans and Lentils" option because that allows for longer cook times. I have used to to cook a pot roast or two. Those came out OK but I got tired of trying to figure out if the preset times needed more tweaking, so it went on the shelf. The "cookbook" that comes with the PPCXL is a joke. The recipes on the web site are full of typos and other errors.
For brown rice I got out the Cuisinart 6 qt pressure cooker I've had for a years now, and it does a very good job, plus you can set the time to whatever you want.
I also have a Zojirushi rice cooker, which makes excellent white, brown, sushi, etc rice. Its main drawback is it takes a very long time to cook brown rice. But that is partly because it incorporates a pre-soak period. I think it takes about 90 minutes to cook brown rice, vs. 40 minutes (including warm up time) in the Cuisinart. For white rice I still use the Zojirushi, though.
