Best Answer: If your kitchen is getting a little crowded with a multitude of appliances and you want to cut back a bit to reduce some clutter, then the Instant Pot would be a great fit for your kitchen. The Instant Pot is designed to replace at least six appliances with the base model, and the more expensive models can replace even more. With the Instant Pot, you can do almost anything, such as cook frozen meats, fork-tender roasts in a little over an hour, dry beans in an hour, meal prep for an entire week, create your own yogurt, sauté and brown meats, make desserts, sterilize, sous vide, and more.

We found the following on Amazon:

Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt 7-in-1 Multi-Cooker ($100)

Instant Pot Ultra 6 Qt 10-in-1 Multi-Cooker ($128)

Instant Pot Max 6 Qt Multi-Cooker ($200)
So the main way to determine if I’m a good fit is if I want to reduce clutter?

Pretty much. Instant Pot is a brand name for a pressure cooker, just like Crock-Pot is the popular brand name for slow cook…

Apple’s HomePod was met with minor scandal when it was discovered that its silicone base was leaving rings on various wooden surfaces after being placed there for some time. Basically, the silicone interacts with the oil finish on a piece of wooden furniture, transferring a little color over. Your best option is to simply keep your HomePod off your wooden tables, desks, and nightstands. However, if the best place for your speaker is on a wooden surface, then consider these mats and stands to help protect your teak.

Deeroll silicone anti-slip pad

The Deeroll pad is essentially a little pedestal upon which you may rest your mighty HomePod. The ring of your speaker sits into the Deeroll, which is shaped like a very wide plunger. Ironically, the Deeroll pad is made of silicone, but it’s made of much sterner stuff, and Deeroll promises it leaves no marks whatsoever.

Hey Siri, save me money.

Amazon has the Apple 10.5-inch 64GB iPad Pro available for $499.99, which is a discount of $150 compared to the normal price. This deal matches the best prices we saw for Black Friday 2018. If you missed out on those discounts, now’s your chance. Today’s pricing is valid on both the Space Gray and Silver models.

This 2017 model has a beautiful display, a lightning-fast processor, and packs mighty tools into a portable package. It also has faster charging options than its smaller sister, the 9.7-inch iPad Pro. With an A10X Fusion chip, a Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and four speakers, plus cameras that compare to the iPhone 7, this tablet gets you some of the best tech available, and today’s price brings it to you for less. It doesn’t have all the latest and greatest features; while Apple Pencil is supported, it charges via the tablet’s Lightning port. The 10.5-inch iPad Pro doesn’t have the ultra-secure Face ID or USB-C like the newest versions do. But unle…

Ready to do some web browsing on your Switch? Here’s how to do it.

We all know that the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic little piece of hardware. However, there is a smattering of small complaints about the device. One such gripe I have heard about more than a few times is that the Switch does not offer any sort of built-in web browser. As far as I am concerned, it is totally justified to expect just about any handheld device to come with a browser.

Unfortunately, not every device comes out of the box completely perfect. The great news is that there are always people working in the periphery to remedy these sorts of problems. The even better news is that you actually can use a web browser on your Switch and you don’t have to do anything as warranty breaking as hacking your switch.

If you want to get into some totally radical net surfing on your Switch, here’s how to do it.

Best Answer: It’s entirely subjective, but the Fitbit Charge 3 is a bit bulkier than other activity trackers that Fitbit offers, such as the Alta HR. The dimensions of the Charge 3 are 1.6 by 4 by 8.9 inches, and it weighs 1.76 ounces. While it may not seem like a big deal, the bulkiness of the Charge 3 may lead to some discomfort as it might press against wrist bones, depending on the fit. If you are looking for a slim and small activity tracker that still has continuous heart rate monitoring, you should look into something like the Fitbit Alta HR instead.

I think I still want to try a Charge 3. What sizes does it come in?

Again, the entire thing about whether it’s too big or not is entirely subjective. You’re still free to give a try for yourself to see if it works for you.

The Fitbit Charge 3 is available in both Small and Large sizes, and every Charge 3 gives you both S and L bands in the box. But if you are reading …
