I was able to purchase this on Saturday. I cooked black beans first. Then a Chicken Cacciatore next. I will definetley need to cook more to learn a bit more bout cooking times. The beans were a little overcooked, tasty just a bit soft and too many split open. I think instead of 8 minutes to cook I may try 4-6. But not complaining on the cooking time! The Cacciatore was good, tender chicken, easy to make. The pots are very heavy, sturdy, seem to be good quality. I have been reading and researching trying to find what to buy. Of course there is a Vissler that is rated top quality, but $250-300. This is a great way to start to make sure I like the whole pressure cooking process. I was concerned about the "belly" on this brand, but I think the base is plenty large enough so that the flames won't need to touch the "belly" part of the pot. I can see using this several days a week especially with the smaller pot for quickly steaming veggies after the main dish is finished. I am looking forward to trying it more tomorrow.
