This amazing machine has truly transformed my capabilities! Having been terrified of pressure cookers since childhood, (an unfortunate incident with rice pudding. On woodchip paper ha!), I was convinced by my big sister to give this multi cooker a go. May, many technological advances have apparently been made since the 1970's! Not only that, this cooker has replaced my rubbish oven, cruddy hob and awful cheap nasty air fryer. At this price, I'm already saving so much time and money, let's face it, time IS money. Brilliant brill8ant machine. I'm sure it has a time travel setting somewhere...
