Just received this and am not liking it too much. It looks nice on the counter, like the size, and love the idea of setting and forgetting it. The issue is that items are preset, so all meat is cooked for 20 minutes, all vegetables for a specified time, etc. Problem is different meats need different times. The pot gets around this by the ability to add minutes, which I suppose works but a digital display where you could just enter in the time would be far better. It is nice to not have to watch for pressure, then adjust the stove burner like a stove top model. The vent release for manual release seems terribly loose and it is tough to tell that it is set right because the indicator is lined up, but it does not ever click into place and wobbles. It also took a long time to heat up to pressure, far longer than my stove top model. Once at pressure it was brilliant with the timer make sure you do not over cook. The rice turned out perfect using the recipe guide. Getting the lid off was uncomfortable, but I suppose that I will get better at it. I currently own a 10 quart fodor rapida and a 4 quart version as well. One of them will be returned, and as of now I am thinking it will be the Puck model.
