The maximum capacity is actually 2 quarts because, as you know if you've used one before, you can't fill it to the top of the pot. I verified this using water and a big measuring cup before I used for the first time.
The very best feature of the 3-quart is the size ... you can actually give it a spot on the counter if you use it often as I do (it's not much larger than a 5-lb bag of flour). When you figure out how versatile it is you WILL want to leave it out because you'll use it every day. My 6 and 8 quart IPs don't get used anywhere near that much, mostly because I cook for one, but also because I don't have to drag the unit out of the closet and put it back when I'm done (first world problems, I know).
The recipe book that comes with will get you off to a good start if you haven't used an IP before. The numerous settings allow you to cook anything, and even the presets can be customized for time and temperature. Customizing isn't necessary, but it surely is nice when you find out that a preset doesn't give you the results you want. Found out last night when making some hamburger steaks...

Lester McGowan: First off, let me say I STOLE this thing on a Warehouse deal! If you know InstanPot, you know what this is and what it does. It an automated electric pressure cooker. Duh. This Ultra is especially nice but they’ll all do pretty much the same thing as any other model. The WIN here, for me, is the size. I’ve come across many recipes over the years where the water doesn’t scale correctly to my 8qt, or are specifically made for the 3qt minis. It’s small! So know what you are buying! That said, if you have a larger IP, and have considered the need for the smaller one, find a great deal and add it to your kitchen.
In general, everything has worked ok so far. I’m especially fond of the rice setting. 1 cup rice, well rinsed. 2 cups water. Rice setting. Release immediately. Is it faster? No. Is it perfect rice every time? Yep. And it frees my attention and stovetop to proceed with the remainder of the meal. I considered buying a rice cooker just before I stumbled onto this. I bought this for the price of 2 mini rice cookers. If it does nothing else, I’m happy enough with the rice function. Even if you only used this as a warmer, to keep food or soup hot for serving or a...
