Almost. My instant pot crisp has a stainless pot, and you can get stainless steel baskets to use instead of the teflon one it comes with. The only teflon bit left is the fan guard plate. It's as mitigated as I could get it.

Good to know. The Instant Pot has weirdly intense heating tendencies, you can't really finesse it much

Cooking rice on a stove may be easy but you have to pay attention to it, and it’s easy to go wrong if you don’t have all the meal done at the same time.

Using a rice cooker is filling it up and pressing a button. It’ll be ready when you are and does a pretty good job of keeping rice on standby if it needs to wait for the rest of the meal

True, there is a huge variety of sizes of rice cooker, depending on how much they make and how fancy they are

The rice cooker I have is cheap, simple and small, makes enough for at least four people and is the size of a 1.5 qt pot, about 9” in diameter. It has one button and consistently cooks decent rice in 15-20 minutes

I guess microwave ovens are all sizes as well: mine has got to be 30” across by 15” deep. I might be able to fit four rice cookers in it.
