Please, be VERY Careful.
Friends highly recommended this product. I thought it could take the place of a few appliances I already have like a rice cooker, slow cooker and then take less time. January 2nd I watched a Youtube video to figure out how to make beans, I tried to be very careful. I used the pressure cooker setting. After it was done, I left it to "sit," though I did let some pressure out with the valve. 41 minutes later, I went to check on it. I let pressure out for almost a full minute. 50 minutes after it stopped, after I let as much pressure out as I could, I removed the lid...scorching liquid sprayed all over my chest. I had second degree burns. It has just been in the last week that I feel a little bit normal. There's discoloration and probably some scarring, but it was my chest luckily, not my face or my eyes in particular.
