EXCELLENT
I HAVE USED Cuisinart CPC-600 1000-Watt 6-Quart Electric Pressure Cooker, Brushed Stainless and Matte Black SEVERAL TIME AND ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. IT IS EASY TO OPERATE AND CUTS THE COOKING TIME TO HALF OF WHAT IT USED TO TAKE ON THE STOVE.
WorksVery Well!
This pressure cooker worked very well right out of the box. After assemblying the various parts (easy), I was able to make an old family recipe for soup that my father makes with his 6-QT Presto Cooker. The timing for the recipe was exact and translated well with the Cuisinart. I also tried a Short Ribs recipe and it also came out perfect. The recipies provided with the cooker sound delicious and I look forward to trying a few of them.
My only negative (if you can call it a "negative") comment is that you can only program one (1) action (i.e. low pressure, high pressure, simmer, etc) at a time-,meaning, that as soon as one command is completed, you have to program your next command. In other words, it is not possible to do ... Read More
Solid, good all-around pressure cooker
I got this pressure cooker two months ago and so far I think it was a great purchase! I love the look, how easy it is to clean and how user-friendly it is. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it is smaller than it looks. You are not supposed to fill it more than 2/3rds of the capacity so its size is deceiving - it fools you into thinking it's pretty large when it isn't. Having said that, I am not sure there are many others that are bigger than this one? I definitely recommend it though.
Fantastic!
Actually I bought this to cook 5 lbs. of chicken wings quickly to add to my finicky dog's kibble. I was using a slow cooker, but 15 hours of smelling cooking chicken was a bit much. This electric cooker makes the 5 lbs of wings the right consistency to easily remove the bones in about an hour with no fuss - just throw in the wings and water - that's it and if you're away from the kitchen when it's done, it keeps it warm until you're ready. What a marvelous appliance.
Since I got it, I've also made a few meals for myself (BBQ Ribs, Pork Chops and Risotto mixing in left over pork chop) - yummy! Am still getting the hang of it (cooking time, etc.), but I'm extremely pleased with the Cuisinart Electric Pressure Cooker.
