It's the six quart - Instant Pot IP-DUO Plus60: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://amzn.to/2uJF9HN">http://amzn.to/2uJF9HN</a><!-- m -->
I think the six is plenty big for two or three people, with leftovers. The eight couldn't hurt, I guess, if you have the space... but we have a small kitchen. There's a six quart that has 7 functions, but the Plus is a six quart that has 9. I don't know that we'll use the extra functions, but I wanted an LCD screen instead of the LED.
I didn't do a lot of research into other brands, so I don't know what's out there. I do know the IP has a pretty big cult following and most of the pressure cooker recipes out there name the IP specifically. All the reviews are great too, so that was good enough for me. If someone broke into our house and stole it, I would buy the exact same model as a replacement.
Unrelated, I had the best corned beef in my life today. I'm not a big corned beef person, but I have been trying to find a good recipe to make lunches with. Anyway, there's a sandwich shop next to a brewery we visited today and they had this thing. I don't think I've had it this thick and I've definitely not had it with the layer of fat. The sandwich is rounded out with picked cabbage, spicy mustard, and mint. I thought the mint was gonna be lame - it was delicious. If any of you visit Seattle, I will take you to this place. Actually, I will take you to the brewery and we'll get the sandwiches delivered to the beer garden.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
