Anyhow, I called Instant Pot and was surprised by the knowledge of the person I spoke with. The phone connection was poor, but when I asked the customer service agent when the current Instant Pot Smart was released he immediately told me it was last May. I told him I had ordered the Ultra, but that I was blind and found it was not accessible in a meaningful way he said that Instant Pot currently recommends not to buy the existing Instant Pot Smart. He further told me they were working on a new and improved version which should come out in the first quarter of 2018. Since it is not like I’m desperate and couldn’t live another day (or week or months or 3) without an Instant Pot I will definitely wait to see what this new Instant Pot Smart has to offer. I also asked him whether the good accessibility of the app was accidental or by design and he said it was by design. Lastly I asked if the new Instant Pot Smart would be more expensive implying jokingly that I didn’t expect him to answer this and he answered without delay or hesitation that no, it would not be more expensive. Well, all we can do now is wait and see, I certainly will wait and anybody who doesn’t already have one of these gadgets is probably better off doing the same. One thing I am glad about is that I have not yet purchased one especially since they were not on sale last weekend. I guess if I had been able to pick one up for half price this might have been a good deal, but I am going to much more willing to pay full price for the new model as soon as it comes out without experiencing buyer’s remorse.

I really hoped that you would say it was accessible. The new pot is supposed to have a Sous Vide function which is cooking under vacuum in a water bath. I wasn't to worried about that myself because we already have a Sous Vide Supreme and so that would not be as important. I do not know when this is supposed to come out though. Whatever you decide,you will like the instant pot. Every time I use it I just love how the iPhone makes it so easy to use.

As many of us found out, nobody seemed to have any deals on the Instant Pot Smart and except for on Amazon here in Canada I have not even found it for sale anywhere else, Best Buy Canada doesn’t carry it, they only have the Duos 7-in-1 and I think 9-in-1. This Ultra 10-in-1 which states it is a 2017 model was on sale on Amazon.ca<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2FAmazon.ca&data=02%7C01%7Crichardturner42%40outlook.com%7Cba66338981fc4fa2d2db08d539d4b24b%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636478508041550361&sdata=Cj%2FTH0lz9Inf4iXcB9JOeHOXCG6ehEdGW1TI%2F44BkM8%3D&reserved=0> for $119.99 and that was definitely a good buy because now it is listed as $229.99. Anyhow, I received it yesterday and unfortunately it would appear that it is not accessible for a blind person. We never did actually plug it in, but all it has in terms of controls is a single dial which can also be pushed in to sort of “click” or select your program that you turn the dial to. It has 16 programs and I assume these are all selected via the dial. There are also two buttons just below and to either side of the dial, probably for maybe setting the timer, maybe an up and down arrow. The dial does click as you turn it, well, not audibly click, but you can feel how each position clicks into place, but there is no tactile reference point on the dial and no stop like where you could turn it all the way to the left or right to a stop position and then count clicks forward or backward. The dial just as in so many appliances nowadays just spins around and around and you have to visually confirm what you selected. Anyhow, I packed it up again and it will become a wedding present for my store manager and his wife (they just got married today) and I will probably order the Instant Pot Smart. Amazingly when I checked it again on Amazon.ca<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2FAmazon.ca&data=02%7C01%7Crichardturner42%40outlook.com%7Cba66338981fc4fa2d2db08d539d4b24b%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C636478508041550361&sdata=Cj%2FTH0lz9Inf4iXcB9JOeHOXCG6ehEdGW1TI%2F44BkM8%3D&reserved=0> it told me that it had dropped in price by just over $2 from $189.99 to $187.something, I guess I am getting my deal after all *smile*. The only thing I’m still a bit hesitant about is the fact that Instant Pot may come out with a new version shortly. I was going to call them to ask when this version was released since I haven’t really found that information.
