Wolfgang Puck 5-Qt. Electronic Pressure Cooker

Just what I was needing!
I purchased this from another store after a substantial amount of research. I needed an electric "multi-cooker" for a period of time during a move that I would not have a standard stove. I have a slow-cooker and microwave available along with this.
