I find that I have good luck pressure-steaming in my Instant Pot using low pressure and subtracting 3 or 4 minutes from the recommended steam time. I then test the inside temp for 165 DegF with a temperature probe.
These steamer baskets work great, though it would be nice if they had more capacity for items like bao buns or tamales since they can't be stacked. The limitation is the Instant Pot diameter, and there isn't anything anybody can do about that.
Cleanup is OK, since the fine metal mesh of the baskets can collect a little residue and may need a little more elbow grease to remove.
I don't plan on putting these baskets in the dishwasher, since I had an old stainless steel colanders rust at the intersection points of the metal mesh.
Overall, I'm glad I got these - they have been used a number of times.
I like that I can lift my food out in the basket when it's done rather than taking it out with a spoon piece by piece. I might make use of the fact that I can create two layers with the basket-in-basket option.
These are pricey for what they are, but I wanted genuine Instant Pot accessories so that I'm not guessing whether they're meant to fit in my instant pot or not. I just got these a couple days ago (I got the set of two) and have already made use of them several times. I also like that the smaller one makes a good strainer for cleaning smaller items under running water, like berries, cherry tomatoes, small mushrroms -- good size for the smaller items. What else can I say -- they're a bit pricey but handy and do what the description says they do.
