Junk,August 2, 2009 This review is from: Wolfgang Puck WPPCR005 5-Quart Electronic Pressure Cooker (Kitchen)Bought one. Worked great for about a year. Then started flashing an error message “F2″. No troubleshooting in the manual, no support available. Just broke and no help to be found.

Bizarre,December 14, 2009 ByRational “Sensible” (High Point, NC USA) –This review is from: Wolfgang Puck WPPCR005 5-Quart Electronic Pressure Cooker (Kitchen)I junked mine because of the totally bizarre user interface. You can’t use any cookbook recipes with it because instead of the traditional pressure settings (high/low), Puck has “meat, vegetable…” and so on settings which render cookbook recipes very hard to translate into Puck-ese. I bought the Nesco electric pressure cooker and the Puck unit sits in our storage room next to the bizarre Puck slow cooker (I can’t use it either because it, too, has bizarro design issues). Both the pressure cooker and slow cooker are “temporarily out of stock” on Amazon which I suspect means “back to the drawing board.”

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.
I couldn’t be more pleased! I was a bit skeptical due to the negative reviews about the cooking choices but thought that I was experienced and smart enough to make the conversions. I’ve had no problems and, in fact, find them quite convenient. There is an option for adding minutes to the set selection if you desire. You can also easily reset the chosen selection at any time during the cooking cycle. The cookbook that comes with it has some standard recipes that can quite easily be modified to your preferences and needs. I cannot find anything to complain about after having used this frequently for a few months.
The unit is very attractive and well made. The lid locks in place and is easily removed when it automatically unlocks after the pressure is released. The removable non-stick pan is wonderful! I find it to be a very usable size and cleans up in a snap. One of the features I find handy is the way it can be used as an open cooker, to brown meats or scramble eggs. It heats quickly and evenly on the bottom for this purpose or to heat up to pressure when you elect to use that function.
I’m sold on my Wolfgang Puck electric pressure cooker and will continue to use it even after moving into our permanent home. It beats the stove top type by a mile and is a pleasure to look at and use.
I will update on the longevity if there are problems but, so far, it gets my 5 stars.
March 2011- I just want to add a caution, to be careful with the removable pan as the coating will show scratches and dings if you aren’t. I was not, and used metal spoons for stirring which have taken a toll. It is not unusable or anything, still cleans up as easily, but it does not look as nice as it did. The old saying about “hindsight” holds true here. I should have been more careful and it would still look as good as new. So, consider yourselves warned. I still use my cooker and am just as pleased with it. I just wish I’d been a bit more careful with the pan so it would still look as good as the rest of the unit.
