I'm ...I wouldn't recommend the kind I got. I'm still deciding whether to keep it. It was a very good deal, but if I keep it, my husband may never let me get another one. It is difficult for little me to open and I was hoping to get a quiet spring top, but I accidentally got a "jiggle-top." It also might be hard the clean under the rim of the pot. An authority on the subject recommends, "if you really intend to get into pressure cooking big-time, I'd go for a higher end cooker such as Kuhn-Rikon, WMF, or Fissler." You can get a Fagor for less money, and they seem to be getting excellent reviews. I've been eying the set I posted at the end of my post. I love the idea of the two pots with the regular top. Then I could start two things sauté-ing and add the pressure top at the appropriate time. I bought two of the pots pictured. I will at least keep one for Pesach.<br /><br />Congrats on the camera! I have a little Sony point-and-shoot. Everything is so focused. I would love to have a DSLR and get really shallow depth of field. But for now I'd rather put my money into my kitchen, kids, leisure. I am playing with setting up photos. You can see it in my guest post on cauliflower and some cookies I'm posting next Wednesday.Yosefahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04941572772796701981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227972625321427309.post-66752040612929252492011-01-14T04:57:14.377+02:002011-01-14T04:57:14.377+02:00I have been tempted to buy one of these for years....I have been tempted to buy one of these for years. In fact, I just got a gift of $250 and was toying between a pressure cooker and some new camera equipment (to help with my food photos). Of course, I literally just placed the camera equipment order this evening when I was surfing the web and found your post! Murphy's Law! I hope you'll be posting about your pressure cooking endeavors. I would really love to hear how it turns out. There's always hope I'll come into some more money and be able to get this later in the year!Rivki Lockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08288838905504852656noreply@blogger.com
