My QVC Instant Pot has Arrived

CLEM — Sat, 14 Apr 2018 18:34:06 GMT

It was shipped yesterday, Friday April 13 and arrived today Saturday April 14.

When did QVC start Saturday delivery?

I took the pot out of its box, but won't cook anything until Monday. Did anyone else get the pot already?

QVC does not deliver anything, the carrier does it such as FedEX, UPS or USPS. They do deliver on Saturdays.

@Imaoldhippie I know all that. But in order to get anything delivered on Saturday/Sunday, the seller has to have a special agreement like Amazon.

The only time I have ever had anything delivered from a company other than Amazon was just before Christmas.

You question was answered on the other thread you posted this on.

I have NO idea what delivery arrangement Q has. Amazon and Q are totally different and I have gotten lots of Q stuff on Saturdays.

Anyway, I'm excited for you. I'll be cranking mine up soon to do a corned beef and cabbage with carrots and mashed potatoes.

QVC lies about shipping. I pad extra for second day premium shipping UPS for a birthday gift. Shipped Thursday and is sitting in a truck 3 miles from my home. UPS refuses to deliver until Monday. I got the office and even offered to come pick it up, they laughed and said, Monday and we mean Monday, doesn't make any difference How much more you paid for shipping. SORRY

@SharkE Everything is included. So I hope it works out well. Once thing I noticed is the inner pot. The one I returned had a stainless steel pot which was a bit heavy to handle when I was washing it. This one is somewhat lighter, but is still stainless steel. If it works, I will be happy.

Have a great weekend.!

First thing I do when I receive a new gadget is sit down and read the booklet unlike hubbo who wants to dive in when he buys something and tear it up then he whines about how he tore it up.

I'll rant "if you'd read the directions, first, you would not had tore it up" LOL

@CLEM

Do a water test first.

Start with something inexpensive to get the feeling for what it can do.

Also...make something where you normally would have to babysit on

the stove...and discover how nice it is not having to watch-the-pot

with your Instant Pot.

Report back. 😀

@sidsmom Yes, I will do that water/steam test first and then make pea soup. Have some peas left over and a ham hook .

I have had an electronic pressure cooker which I loved, but gave to a friend who really needed one last year. So I am looking forward to a new one and just hope I like it as much as the one I had.

QVC doesn't deliver anything. Fedex and Usps deliver on Saturday and Ups delivers on Saturdays in some areas. Not in my area and I suppose that's a good thing.

@CLEM one of the first things I made in my IP was split pea soup and it was delicious! I literally just wung everything in there, pressed a few buttons and had great soup. I had a CE pressure cooker first but I love the IP much more. Good luck and let us know how it went!

@momtochloe I hope this is a keeper. Have now waited a long time for one of the traditional ones to make an appearance, but nothing so far.
