If i purchase a new instant pot, do i need this lid also?

The Slow Cook function on Instant Pot IP-CSG series emulates other slow cookers. It can be set to cook for 1~10 hours. The operating temperature is at 88-93°C (190-200°F). You need to set the steam release handle to the "venting" position during slow cook. If not, a low pressure could build up in the pot.The IP-LUX series has more sophisticated temperature control, which you can choose "Less", "Normal" and "More" with the "Adjust" button. These correspond to the Low, Medium and High in common slow cookers. The operating temperature is at 88-99°C (190-210°F), and it can be set to cook for 1~10 hours. You need to set the steam release handle to the "venting" position during slow cook.

why would you want the glass lid in the first place?

I didn't think I would use a glass lid either. I have crockpots and I would be using my instant pot as a pressure cooker. I have changed my mind. The instant pot is right there on the counter so I don't have to drag it out. It already has a timer. The one thing it doesn't have is a way to quickly check the food without taking off the lid. Hence the need for the glass lid.

Will this fit the new 8 quart model?

Some say that you can't use the Glass Lid to slow cook, some say that you can (see Reviews). Why?

This is taken directly from the Instant Pot website: “The Instant Pot tempered glass lid with steam vent and stainless steel rim and handle is designed for use with the Instant Pot Multi-Use Programmable Pressure Cooker. Ideal for when your cooker goes into the “Keep-Warm” mode and when using the “Sauté” and “Slow Cook” programs. It may also be used in the oven with the inner cooking pot up to 428F (220C). This genuine Instant Pot lid makes it ideal for serving and is easy to clean.”.
