I love this thing, I have used it almost every night since the purchase and am learning more and more every day. The only failing I have found, is that there are not more precise directions/recipes for using the lid part. The pot works like all the others but, there isn't really any info out there yet on how long or what temps to use the dehydrating function or air frying recipes for this lid. Once this has been out longer, I'm sure that will change and until then, I'm happy to experiment.
