Thanks, I'll write it down, I did actually go on their website and it was
quite easy to find both an email address as well as a toll free number. It's
different than yours, so I'll try both.
I decided not to cancel this order, the manager of my retail store is
getting married this coming week and if after checking it out I find it's
not accessible or not accessible enough I'll give it to them as a wedding
gift and order the bluetooth version.
Take care,
Sieghard

Yes, I sure do have a number for you. It is
1-800-828-7280
I realize you are in Canada and hope that number works for you. Let me know
if it doesn't and I'll look for a local one for you. Hope this helps.

Hi Deb,
TThis new "Ultra" model just came out this year and it has a single dial.
Now, Kay, if what you said is correct then I guess it will go back in the
box. Where did you call, do you have a direct number for Instant Pot? I
guess I could still cancel it and wonder if I shouldn't do so after what you
said. I was sort of hoping the dial would click with each turn.
Regards,
Sieghard

There's no dial as far as I know of. None of the rest have a dial.
They all have tactile buttons so I imagine this one does too. That's the
trouble with asking customer service. I always have someone look at the
pictures and describe the entire thing. And in this case, you can download
the manual in advance. But I doubt there's a dial of any kind on it. I'll be
very surprised if it's not useable.

Hi Sieghard,
I did not buy that one because I called customer support and the
person there actually went and got one to try the dial for me. He
told me that there was no detent on the dial and you could not tell
when the dial was pointed at the item you wanted to select. You could
not put a dot on the dial because it never ended up in the same
position as you turned it. I hope you find out differently, but I
steered clear of that one because of what that support guy told me.
It was really nice of him to get one and try
it. He really seemed to understand what I needed to know. Let us
know what
you find out, would you?

Hi,
Well, after checking the emerging Cyber Monday deals I didn't see
any deals on the Instant Pot Smart/Bluetooth cooker.
I did, however, find the new Instant Pot Ultra Electric Pressure
Cooker, 6Qt 10-in-1, Stainless Steel (2017 Model)
The above link is for the Amazon Canada store where it is regular
$199.99
($10 more than the Smart/Bluetooth model) and it's currently on sale
for $119.99, a nice saving and converted to US this is less than $100.
This is not a connected model, but it's the newest in their line-up
with a
total of 16 programs including egg programs and it also allows you to
adjust
for altitude which to me makes a lot of sense in a device like this
since altitude effects the boiling temperature of water.
At sea level water boils at 100 ° Celsius (212 ° Fahrenheit.
If you live in Denver, the mile-high city, water boils already at
94.7 Celsius or 202.5 Fahrenheit and being able to adjust for this
will make the
cooking more precise.
I know this Instant Pot is not a connected device hence it could be
considered off-topic. If Mark decides it's so I won't say anything
more, if
not I'll post a bit of a review as to the accessibility once I have it.
The description says it has a single dial and you apparently just
turn the
dial to the program you want and press it in to start. Who knows,
maybe it will be completely inaccessible in which case I'll probably
return it unused, but I liked the idea of the altitude adjustment and
the extra programs.
I wonder if Instant Pot will continue to make a smart/connected
model, in
the CBC News article they hinted at the fact they were just getting
started
and a bunch of new devices from them would hit the market in 2018.
I did also find an Instant Pot "Sous Vide" cooker, but decided not
to order it at this point although the idea of this cooking style
sounds interesting. For those who don't know what it is, here is a
short summary from Wikipedia:
Sous-vide, French for "under vacuum", is a method of cooking in
which food
is vacuum-sealed in a plastic pouch and then placed in a water bath or
steam
environment for longer than normal cooking times (usually 1 to 7
hours, up to 48 or more in some cases) at an accurately regulated
temperature much lower than normally used for cooking, typically
around 55 to 60 °Celsius
(131 to 140 °F) for meat, higher for vegetables. The intent is to cook
the item evenly, ensuring that the inside is properly cooked without
overcooking
the outside, and to retain moisture.
it's a way to cook meat, poultry, fish, vegis, fruit etc. very
slowly in hot water, but what you are cooking is of course not just in
the water (that
would be simply boiling it), but it cooks inside a bag or something
like that. it's contained in
The Instant Pot Sous Vide cooker can cook things for up to 72 hours
and maintain the set temperature to half a degree Celsius I think and
while it is it's own device, apparently you can use it with a 6 or 8
quart Instant Pot, not sure exactly how it works.
Regards,
Sieghard
