Why Instant Pot Duo 6-Quart?

The Instant Pot is the most-recommended appliance in full-timing communities, and for good reason: it replaces six separate items with one device you plug into a single outlet. The pressure cooking function dramatically cuts cooking time — whole chicken in 25 minutes, dried beans in 30 — which matters when you're running a generator or solar and want to minimize run time. 6-quart is the right size for most full-timing households.
