Instant Pot multi-cookers are one of the most popular kitchen gadgets on the planet. According to one survey, 21% of American adults own one of the small kitchen appliances that perform up to 16 functions (depending on the model), from pressure cooking to air frying.
Amazon Prime Day is one of the best times of the year to pick up an Instant Pot -- the brand is known to seriously cut prices during the event. And this year's Prime Day is no exception, as some of the most popular Instant Pot models have been marked down more than 40% off.
CBS Essentials has rounded up some the best Instant Pot Prime Day deals on Amazon, which will be in effect through June 22 ... or until they sell out!
Instant Pot Duo Crisp + Air Fryer (8 quart)

The Instant Pot Duo Crisp eliminates the need to buy both: It comes with a multi-level air fryer basket with a dehydrating and broiling tray and protective pad, which you can use to keep your countertop safe. The 8-quart Crisp also pressure cooks, sautes, steams, slow cooks, sous vides, warms, roasts, bakes, broils and dehydrates. It comes equipped with Instant Pot's EasySeal lid, which automatically and safely seals for pressure cooking.
Normally $200, the Instant Pot Duo Crisp is on sale for $130 during Amazon Prime Day.
