"Execellent!"
As a long time user of pressure cookers, this is the safest one I have seen. Buy one!

"What I recieved was a Cook's Essentials not a Duo"
I would give this item zero stars, but I am forced to give it at least one in order to write a review.
What I recieved was a Cook's Essentials 8 quart pressure cooker with a non-stick interior. Apparently, Fagor makes the Cook's Essentials line for QVC. The pot came in a Fagor Duo box, with a Fagor Duo manual and a Fagor cookbook, but inside was the Cook's Essentials pot. Stamped on the bottom of the pot is "Cook's Essentials" along with "Made in China". The box says "Made in Spain". I have returned the item to Amazon and they were great when I contacted them about the item and issued me an immediate refund. I purchased another Fagor Duo 8 quart pressure cooker from another retail website and recieved the same Cook's Essentials pot. I am returning it as well. Although, that website is not being nearly as gracious as Amazon was with the return.
I e-mailed Fagor and their response was that they weren't sure if they were going to continue with the Duo line....

"Fagor 8 qt pressure cooker"
We LOVE this pressure cooker!!! It is so easy to use. Much better that the old pressure cookers with the weight. The dual pressure control is wonderful. It's easy to use. Makes the best stews, roasts and custards.

"GREAT PRESSURE COOKER"
This pressure cooker really holds up! It's a wonderful item to have if you're looking to have a home made meal in a matter of an hour! I've made pot roast and many chicken dishes in it and they come out marvelous!

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about this product"
This pressure cooker was a gift. I have never had but one other cooking item that I have enjoyed as much (and that sits on the deck and smokes lots of meat).
This is by far a joy for anyone who loves to cook. I cannot believe that I have gone so long without one in my arsenal. I actually have gone so many weekends wanting cornbread and beans (pintos, or great northerns) and then realize that I hadn't the will or time to presoak them for 24 hours. Now, just BANG, done in less than 1/2 hour and have a taste, flavor and texture that is unsurpassed. I can tell you that if you enjoy cooking you need one in your repetoire.
Cooks Illustrated (America's Test Kitchen) rated the Fagor 8 quart "tops" and I agree.
Be careful if you are electric stove as the 18/10 stainless with aluminum core is a very fine conductor of heat and you will scorch your first beans if you don't come to pressure at MED-HI. High is just too much. (had to read some really fine print to find that little gem). After High pressure is achieved just back it to between Med and Med-Lo and you'll be fine.
Again, cannot express how jaw-dropping easy and wonderful food comes out in this. That there are not more people using these out of all the friends I have who think they are chefs, I am amazed.
