Never used a pressure cooker but use a pressure canner all the time to can veggies, meats and soups. Unless I'm missing something, I'm not convinced that pressure cookers are really a time saver.
I mean, there are tons of recipes out there for '20 minute beans' but they don't take into account the 10 minutes to get the cooker up to pressure and the 20-30 minutes at the end to let the cooker release the pressure. Then take into account the constant whistle while cooking, personally I'd rather just have a regular pot of beans on the stove. Then again, I can beans using my pressure canner so all my recipes use already cooked beans for convenience.
