Didn't live up to expectations
I am so sorry that this item did not perform as I was hoping and expecting it to. The first time I used it, it smelled as though something was burning but I thought it was the newness of it. Now, I think that something connected to the timer may have burned loose, because the timer stopped working right after the first use. I made cherry turnovers and they stuck to the top and bottom (even after spraying both with PAM). I used the plastic spatula to get them out and it scratched the bottom pretty badly (the turnovers were good though,thus the 1 star). I noticed that the top paint had a bubble in it as well (just a matter of time before it would start peeling). I tried to cook pork chops, but they were very dry and a pizza pocket (which was okay, but stuck again). Needless to say, I had to return this product. I was so looking forward to using my Xpress cooker. I hope that the manufacturers will go back to the drawing board and come up with an improved product.
