Oh my, this machine is amazing!!

I ordered it form Bed, Bath and Beyond. It listed for 99.99 but I had a 20% off coupon. So total out to UPS for delivery was 91.00.

I made some cabbage rolls in it for dinner, they were fabulous. Next time I will add a little bit more tomato sauce, we had enough for dinner. I will have to add some when I reheat them for tomorrow's meal.

What do you like better about the electric vs the stop top models?

I never used one before, my Mom does. I found this one to be really easy, much easier than my embroidery machine...haha

I can't wait to make a pot of chili this weekend.

The stove top ones terrify me, this one has 7 safety features on it.

I use mine a lot for canning. Does the instruction book say anything about canning in that one?

No, I don't think it's big enough. But here is the link to it at the manufacture's site.

Sounds like something I could use. As a child I saw one explode, hurling parts of that night's chicken dinner all over the kitchen, and threw the lid out of a window that wasn't open.

Scared me, never did use one after I grew up and out on my own.
Just might check this one out, I never knew they made an electric one.

Does it lower the temperature automatically? That is the hardest thing to control with a stove top one.
