Instant Pot or Dutch oven
Instant Pot wins on speed for beans and stock. A Dutch oven wins on browning, bread, and flavor. Here is which to buy first.
Instant Pot or sous vide
A beginner who wants fast weeknight meals should buy the Instant Pot. Buy sous vide for steak and eggs cooked exactly to temperature.
