[Small-Appliance-Cooking] Instant Pot Types

It is like getting mad at the manuals for hair dryers.  It says right in there not to use while in the bath or shower.  They have to cover all bases to cover their a$$

I know for sure that I could use one. They are very safe. I just am not sure if I could support a company that does not support accessibility. I don't understand what you mean by saying they are trying to cover themselves. They can actually be sued for that statement in there manual. Their products are blatantly trying to discriminate against blind people and other people with disabilities. The ADA actually does address this. I cannot remember the title, but I read the entire thing, and it said somewhere that you cannot exclude a person with a disability on the grounds that they are safety threat unless it is medically provable. It made it very clear that it has to be medically provable and that it cannot be based on perception. So the company could be sued for this. They should at least be chastised for it. If they take that out of there manual and support accessibility, I would want to support them.
