Great piece of kitchen equipment
Love it. It will not replace my rice cooker....I don't think. But I absolutely love it.
A note to the wise, however. What you gain with an electric pressure cooker is a safe way to cook quickly--sort of. It takes a long time to pressurize and a long time to de-pressurize a pressure cooker. So when you see a recipe that says it cooks in 20 minutes, the total time will really be much longer than that--like maybe 40 or 45 minutes instead of 20 minutes. But this is unattended time. Just be sure you plan your meals to take the extra time into account, because the recipe typically will not show it. That throws off some new pressure cooks.
The other thing is that you can pre-heat the pot to lessen the pressuring time. To do this you add your liquid first and set the pot, with the lid off, to saute. Then when you add your dry ingredients and put the lid on, you have less pressurization time than you would with a cold start. Depending on the dish, it decreases time from 10 to maybe 15 minutes.
