Cuisinart or Fagor electric pressure cooker?
I'm dying for one of these but can't decide between them. Please help me with this. I know many of you don't believe in this appliance but I've had a good stovetop one for years... used it twice and have enough stress in my life (job, internship and grad school) that I don't want to use it again. I come home late, love beans and soups and curries. Please give me pros and cons based on your experience. Thanks much.

I have the Fagor multi-cooker which of course, includes a pressure cooker option. I was skittish about pressure cooking on the stove and I wish I'd had more guts! The Fagor takes a long time to come to pressure, but I have little experience with pressure cooking, so that might be normal. I just don't know if between the time it takes to come up to pressure, and then naturally release the steam (by waiting) whether I'm actually saving time over cooking a pot of beans on the stove.
The biggest issue for me is the non-stick coating, which is chipping on the top of the insert. -
