Any steamers baskets recommended for the IP?

I bought this set when it was £11.99 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LFGJYBS/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Needless to say I wouldn't pay the £94.91 plus postage they are asking for it now

Perhaps this?  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Parateck-Insert-Basket-for-Instant-Pot-Steamer-Basket-304-Stainless-Steel-Pans-Accessories-8qt-6-Quart-Available-Pressure-Cooker-Rice-Egg-Vegetable-Meat-Silicone-Handle-Dishwasher-Safe/dp/B07G7X12MJ/ref=sr_1_43_sspa?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1549123486&sr=1-43-spons&keywords=instant pot&psc=1

The stainless steel inner can take a beating and is pretty cheap to buy should it get damaged.
Read a few places that the non-stick has to be treated with a lot of care.

Made a 5 bean, 1.5kg, 5 Scotch Bonnet, 10 Finger chilli and one Carolina chilli con carne last night.
Saute the mince for 10 mins and added tin toms, tom puree, chilli's and 5 beans and put on high pressure for 40 mins and popped out to the local micro pub.
Came back with the timer showing a 57 min finish and all steam vented and after filling up 7 take-way pots had enough for a big dish for myself and yum it was too.

Got the IP delivered today. Manual states that should be at least 500ml liquid? Seen some recipes that use lot less so bit confused.

So, I've been in 2 minds over the Pressure King Pro but been looking at the Ninja Foodi which has just dropped from £199 to £179. The fact it has an air fryer as well and great reviews has tipped me over the edge. Plus they are doing an interest free 4 monthly payments, via card. No credit agreement.
Its a big bugger but have the space

So, ordered one this morning. Will report back

Got £50 of Tesco vouchers to use.   Gonna pop to Tesco later and see if they have any Pressure Cookers.   Anything to look out for (or anything that I shouldn't get).

Fancy one of these.  Out all day at work so i'd like the option of finding some slow cooker recipes that I could cook for several hours while i'm at work.

It will be interesting to learn how you find it. My initial reaction is that I wouldn't want an air fryer combined with slow/pressure cooker. Reason being that whilst an air fryer is an air fryer it is amazing how much like a normal fryer they get. Unless you love scrubbing really hard every time.

Everything I've read states its easy to keep clean. Plus you get the crisping option after steaming using the air fryer. Time will tell

Seems a reasonably unbiased review (given it was a free review sample)

Slow cooker recipes aren't going to help with a pressure cooker

Oops.  Should have said slow cooker.
