I would not use the IP as a crock pot.

some IP dishes only need enough time to come to pressure and then they are done.

Wendsday we will be out of the house most of the day and Tuesday we might be out of the house all day or maybe just from 3 to 6:30.

The thing is that most of the time dh is home ( ocasionaly he is on trips) so if I have it all preaped he can probably start things mid day.

That is good to know. I had a cheep crockpot and could neaver get times to line up with recipes. Things would burn on high and would neaver get done on low. So I don't know that I would notice the difference of it being slow.
