I've seen at Walmart the display is always fastened and locked down to where they won't let you lift the lid to see the pot. Makes me mad.

We've got the 6-n-1 at my local WalMart for $79, but I did buy the 7-n-1 at Christmas a few years ago so I could do the yogurt easily! It is super easy too! This is a great deal on both on Amazon or the 6-n-1 at WalMart! We don't have one on display locally, so I wouldn't know about the lid being fixed down.

what do you want to know about it, 

 

it's shiny, heavy durable stainless steel,  going  into my 3rd year and mine looks like new.

 

 

there are lines inside with cup measurements

@sidsmom  YES YOU DO!  LOL!!!!  We have one and use it several times a week.  For 2 people it is wonderful.  It makes really perfect boiled eggs, and is great for small batches of rice, roast, chicken, chicken and rice, etc.  We usually get at least 2 meals out of something we cook in it.

 

It is so much easier to handle than the 6 qt. that we have.

I j.u.s.t came back from a trip to Walmart...and there he was!

(stroking it lovingly Gollum like)...

”my PRECIOUS! Someday, someday”

 

Those iPot models look & feel like those plastic/fake TVs!

ETA:  I meant to say I believe they might be a special display model.

I lifted the actual box...it was much, much heavier than the display.

Still a quality machine!

 

I did notice, the larger model has a totally different top than

my iPot which I purchased directly through Instant Pot

when they were first introduced to Amazon.

@sidsmom  I don't remember the top on my mini looking much if any different.  And it fits on the handles the way the big one does too so you don't have to look for a place for it.  I LOVE that.  The little one heats up quicker too--or at least it seems to.  

 

Makes a great pot of beans!
