Instant Pot made an air fryer lid and it’s on sale

TL;DR: If you own a six-quart Instant Pot, there’s no need to buy an air fryer: They have a lid that does a ton of new things, is compatible with most six-quart pots, and is on sale for $79.95, down from $140.

Instant Pots can do almost everything you could want from a kitchen appliance except for air frying. Well, until now, that is. The brand released a detachable lid that turns compatible 6-quart cookers into air fryers.

This ingenious lid retails for $140, which is pretty hefty for something that doesn’t stand alone. Luckily though, it’s currently reduced down to $79.95.

In addition to air frying, this lid has broil, bake, roast, reheat, and dehydrate functions, so you don’t have to continuously swap it out for the standard Instant Pot lid. Along with the air frying lid you’ll get a multi-level frying basket that goes inside the pot, allowing you to utilize the deep space. 

As amazing as this lid is, it unfortunately does not fit every model of Instant Pot. It’s compatible with most 6-quart models and only works with those with stainless steel inner pots. It is not compatible with the Instant Pot Smart WiFi 60, Duo Evo Plus 6, Duo Evo Plus 60, Duo SV, or Max 60. 

If you have one of the models it will work with and you’ve been itching to get your hands on an air fryer, grab the Instant Pot air frying lid on sale for $79.95.
