What our customer's say!

"not big enough for corn on the cob", The pressure works great in getting up to pressure quickly and love the safety features built in, but the overall diameter is not big enough for cooking corn on the cob.

"Nice Design", I had a Kuhn Rikon and still have a Presto pressure cooker. I got rid of the Kuhn Rikon. I love the Fagor Duo. The Kuhn Rikon design is a real pain if you have an electric stove. It is probably almost acceptable if you have a gas stove. The Fagor models work equally well on either type stove. Also, along the same lines, the Fagor and the Presto designs are much more forgiving. You better plan on watching a Kuhn Rikon very closely -- especially on an electric stove -- but also on a gas range. It can get to an over pressure situation easily. Granted you will likely just blow out part of your gasket (the safety measure) if you get distracted. Who needs that? You better have an eagle eye and fast reactions to maintain a reasonably constant pressure inside your cooker with an electric stove.

You do lose some steam with a Fagor though typically much less than with a Presto model. (You lose nearly no vapor with a Kuhn Rikon -- that is about their only big selling point in my book.) The Fagor model uses a compressed spring to regulate pressure. The Presto uses a weight on top of a vent pipe -- this combination is called a jiggler valve -- to regulate pressure. To regulate pressure with a Kuhn Rikon you basically watch a rising spring loaded pressure indicator and adjust the heat as needed. Gas heat is more quickly adjustable than electric. You have to either hope for the best as you crank the heat up and down with an electric stove or play hop scotch between a too hot and a too cold burner. On the Fagor Duo there are two spring compression settings. You can cook at 8 psig or 15 psig. 15 psig is the normal setting used for most pressure cooking. For delicate foods, like fish, or if you are in no particular rush the 8 psig setting will come in handy.

Bottom line is I like the Fagor the best of the three pressure cookers I discussed, next I like the Presto. The Kuhn Rikon is built like a tank and it is an interesting design. I just don't like it as well as the Fagor's and I am a both a mechanical engineer and I cook for a hobby. I'd like to think my opinion is an informed one.

"Shattered handle in a sealed box!", Stopped at Macy's to take a look at this. The sales clerk opened a sealed box to reveal a SHATTERED handle. Buyer beware. Seems awful.

Compared to other pressure cookers, the design of the large handle on this one seems to be inherently easy to break.

Also note that a 6-quart cooker is too small for most uses. Remember, you can only fill half-way with soup, and a piece of meat cannot extend higher than 3/4 the height of the cooker. Check out the Presto 8 quart that costs about 25% less and includes excellent customer service. Just my 2 cents!

"Wish I knew", The pressure cooker arrived broken. It was returned and I was told that Amazon would no longer carry it. Amazon's response was quick, but I still don't have a pressure cooker.

"Love it!", Bought this pressure cooker as a replacement for a defunct electric model(Salton-QVC). The electric was great for learning about pressure cooking, but the electronics simply gave out after a year of use. Decided to go with a stove top model, and chose the Fagor. What a great pressure cooker! It is simple to use, elegant compared to the cumbersome electric model and cooks like a dream. It's very easy and quick to get this pot up to pressure and keep it there. I've done a ham in it, potatoes, corn on the cob, chicken broth, beef stroganoff, plus a few other things. Cooked them all to perfection! You'll never have to use nasty canned chicken broth again if you buy this pot, reason enough to get one. I used three pounds of necks and backs, got 15 cups of rich, golden broth in 20 minutes. Go ahead and give pressure cooking a try. You'll be hooked with this pot! It's safe, easy, quick and good. I also like the fact that I can use with this cooker(unlike the electric...gotta have an outlet!) on a variety of cooking surfaces: stove-top, grill burner, woodstove(should the power go out in the winter!).
