Instant Pot Steam Diverter for Instant Pot Accessories. DUO & LUX MODELS: 6 quart, 8 qt, Mini 3 qt –Safely Release & Divert Insta Pot Steam. Food Grade Silicone

I had to try this simple bent pipe made of silicone as soon as I got it. So, I put some eggs in the IP. As the directions stated, I only placed the pipe on the steam vent once I was ready to do a QR on the IP. Once I pushed the steam release button in my Ultra, the pipe tipped just a bit, but it stayed on and all the steam exited the top opening as intended. No steam shot out of the bottom. I pointed the diverter toward the stove vent, since the IP is under our cabinets. I don’t think the steam has hurt our cabinets, but didn’t want to take any chances. The big advantage is that you can prevent getting steam burn! I’ve used towels to keep the steam from shooting up and all over, but that doesn’t prevent steam from getting to close to your hand. Per directions provided, ONLY place the diverter on the vent when ready to doing a QR. Apparently, the diverter can put enough pressure on the vent to release some steam while cooking, therefore not cooking your food as intended. The diverter fits loosely over the vent, but all the steam exits it as it’s supposed to.What I don’t understand about other steam diverters which have two vents is how do they prevent burns or steam from going in directions you don’t want it to! One diverter even points downward! Ouch! Talk about a nasty burn! I just point this one where I need the steam to go and in one direction! I really don’t understand the benefits of the other styles...😤!This style costs a few bucks more but it works and has a good design for its intended purpose.

I've only used this item once but it's a real "hand saver"! When trying to do a quick release of the steam, this is the only way to go. Highly recommended!

This actually made more of a mess than just not using it. Two out of the three times we hooked it up to our 8-at Instant Pot the contents started spewing out the vent and I had a heck of a mess to clean up. We haven’t used it since and surprise! - no messes and only steam was released. I think the design is flawed because it allows too much of a gap in the release valve, which causes the pot contents to be released along with the steam. And, yes, I made sure the pot was not overfilled and all contents were below the fill lines.

Works great. Fits great. Very durable.

I bought the lux size and it fit perfectly on my insta pot. I was very surprised at how well this directed the steam away from my cabinets and face. Very happy with the product overall!!

I love it. I got new cabinets two years ago and I worried about the steam damaging the cabinets over time. This is a great product! No more worries about cabinet damage from steam! 👍

This was perfect and works great! I have cabinets over my counters so being able to control where the steam goes will save them from damage. Bought this for my ultra and fit was perfect!

Works perfect on my Ultra 8-Qt!
