I have had my Instant Pot for a few years now. I use it at least twice a week and I am not one for leaving a lot of appliances on my counter. Now my kitchen is on the small side so I was keeping my Instant Pot in the guest bedroom closet. What a pain. In fact, this summer I knocked something off the shelf in the closet and it fell square on my big toe. It wasn’t broken but it turned black and blue.
