Love it
This is a fabulous product. I was afraid of pressure cookers but no more. I made rice pilaf from a recipe that came with the machine and it was the best rice I ever had.

Crock Pot Alternative
After watching Iron Chefs on TV use pressure cookers to produce delicious food in minutes, I decided to give pressure cooking a try. This pressure cooker will not break the bank and it's easy and safe to use. My 12 year old made chicken soup in it on the first day I opened the box. I love that I can prep my ingredients early in the day, pop them into the pressure cooker and have a tasty stew or soup in about 30 minutes. So far we have made a couple of soups, cooked a couple of different kinds of squash (7 minutes for spaghetti squash!) and one or two stews. Tonight I am going to give pulled pork a try. The cooker is a bonus for families who need to pull dinner together in 30 minutes or less. The instructions include a number of recipes and all have been very good.

Best cooker of any type on the market
This is a great addition to the kitchen. Have done several roasts of different types, ribs, soups, and specialty dishes with all turning out excellent. No muss, no fuss....quick and easy. I wouldn't return to the old style cooker for anything. Currently cooking in it 4-5 times per week and doubt that will change because it is too easy to clean also. The food is absolutely delicious.

A big improvement from old cookers
The electric pressure cooker is a great addition to our kitchen. I have only used it once so far, making a beef stew. The only complaint with the food was mt fault. I cooked the potatoes a minute longer than the recipe stated and they were slightly over cooked. Over all I could't be more pleased. Next I plan to cook dried beans and I have a list of other recipes on the agenda. I had the old type pressure cooker years ago and I was always afraid it was going to blow up. The electric cooker is completly safe and best of all the cooking time is quick and the food delicious.

Excellent Cooker for Awesome Meals
This is my first pressure cooker and I love it. I don't know how I got along with out it when I was a busy Mom. Now I am a Grandma and it is used several times a week making meals for my Kids and Grandkids. It saves time, money on groceries (using less expensive cuts of meat) and the meal is much healthier with the vitamins sealed in...definitely reccommend for all busy cooks!!

Best Gift Ever!!!
This product is wonderful. I bought this pressure cooker for my father for Christmas last year. My father is getting up in age, and he loves to cook with a pressure cooker. The one he had preciously was very old (older than me), and he had to get up and down constantly over the course of the cook time in order to monitor the pressure etc.
He absolutely loves this new pressure cooker, he sets it and forgets about it. No getting up and down to check the pressure, or to avert potential crisis etc. What is also great about this pressure cooker is that it is extremely quiet. I have visited my parents many times, smelled the food cooking, but never heard a peep from the pressure cooker. I would recommend this pressure cooker to anyone looking for a quick and simple way to prepare food that is healthy and tasty!

Love this pressure cooker
I got this as a Christmas present and just love it! I feel this is a reasonably priced piece of equipment and have always been happy with Cuisinart purchases. The browning and simmer features really make this a time saver, not to mention that I don't have to wash another skillet.
