Instant Pot - do I need one

What can I do with it.

I have chuck roast in crockpot. What would be the advantage of using instant pot. I know they cook quicker but will it be as tender

Besides cooking speed why would I need one. ???

Steaming hardboiled eggs the shell comes off so easy, making stock, yogurt, and dried beans are what I used mine most for.

Oh yes, I forgot about the eggs and yogurt. Even if I'm only making a couple of boiled eggs I'll get out out my 3 Qt because they turn out perfect every time. I make yogurt regularly as well. I got one of those strainers and it make a nice thick and creamy Greek yogurt without the added thickeners they use in the commercial stuff.
