I love how fast you can cook things in pressure cookers!  I keep hearing about electric ones, but this one works great for me!  I've been looking up recipes and just continue to be amazed.  I can't say I've lost all my fears using it, but I haven't had any problems and this is my first one.  I think I got a too big one for me and my needs, but oh, well. I do have staining in the bottom after using it, but apparently that's normal and doesn't bother me.  I live in a place with hard water and maybe that's contributing to it also.  I really like cooking potatoes in here and am just beginning to learn all the things this can do.
