I had this same Cuisinart electric pressure cooker and eventually I gave it to Goodwill because it was a real pain to use and it did not live up to its advertised usefulness. One of my biggest complaints was that it took FOREVER to come up to pressure.  OTH, I'm loving the IP even though I've had it only 10 days now.  The IP is functioning much better than the Cuisinart ever did -- I can see that I will be using it frequently.  This morning, I pressure-cooked smoked ham hocks for my stepson who is preparing a mess of collards today.  45 minutes in the IP and WOW they were falling apart and the seasoning permeating the cooking liquid.  I wonder if you could exchange the Cuisinart for a second IP?  Just a thought.

 

Hmmmmm! That's puzzling! My neighbor has two Cuisinart electric pressure cookers and they work great!

 

Anyway, I was gifted an overstock.com e-gift card so I jumped on the bandwagon last evening.

Cuisinart CPC-600FR 6-Quart Electric Pressure Cooker (Refurbished..because I'm cheap) $67.95-12% OFF PROMO=$59.80+2 yr. replacement warranty= $67.00 total.
