Michele, if you are wanting something for both cooking and canning, be sure that the cooker you buy has a way of determining pressure amounts. A straight pressure cooker for cooking only has one pressure that it works under and so the weight is not gauged. A pressure canner, however, with pressure differenciations can also be used for cooking a pot roast or beans, etc.

Hi Michele! I got a pressure canner/cooker for Christmas in 2010, and it took me until just a couple months ago to quit being scared and start using it. So far, I've canned bean and bacon soup, and made two pot roasts. All of them turned out great, especially the roasts, which cooked in about 40 minutes and were fall-apart tender. I don't know anything about the electronic ones, since mine has the weight that jiggles back and forth on top, but I'd definitely recommend trying it out!
