I purchased one of these probably a year ago

Having had no previous experience with a pressure cooker, I wanted something I wouldn't blow myself up with. This advertises safety features like auto shut-off and timer and such, all of which I've found no issues with. I feel completely safe every time I use it, and the ease of use is a huge plus. Definitely a set it and forget it type of tool.
Being only 8 qt capacity, it does limit you a bit, but my initial interest was for making slants. I've also canned wort for starters, I believe I'm able to fit 4 or 5 masons jars at a time.
We do a lot of cooking with it as well. I've since bought a few pressure cooker cook books and searched recipes online, finding some decent ones here and there.
Overall, I think it's a solid buy for multiple uses, and is a good alternative from the old school 23 qt type stove top cookers.
