May 4 is long gone, but if you're looking for a last-minute gift for mom (or, let's be honest, yourself) - Amazon is offering up to $40 off its Instant Pot Star Wars collection

With five different styles/characters to choose from, the Instant Pot Little Bounty for $5998 is the cheapest Instant Pot in Amazon's sale; at $40 off, it's one of the best early Memorial Day sales around, and at $5998, it's also the cheapest Instant Pot on sale

The Instant Pot Duo is our top pick in our Best Instant Pots guide Thanks to Lucasfilm's merchandising department, it comes in a variety of Star Wars-themed colors, with five different styles to choose from: R2-D2, Darth Vader, Storm Trooper, BB-8, and Little Bounty However, only three models are currently available

The Instant Pot, like other pressure cookers, has a sealed chamber that allows food to cook faster by increasing air pressure Thus, for example, short ribs can be made in less than an hour But the Instant Pot has several other functions, such as making yogurt, steaming eggs, sterilizing jars, etc
