My mother used one as long as I can remember. I now have my MIL's. I
had and used them for 45 years.

1. Read and follow ALL instructions to the letter.
2. Keep it in good condition.
3. Do not leave the kitchen while it is in use. If you leave the
kitchen you will forget about the cooker and have a big mess on your
hands.
