Amazon.com Review
Pressure cookers have experienced renewed popularity over the last several years because cooks have rediscovered what some cooks (particularly grandmas) have known for a long time--they're really fast. And it's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. Presto's 6-quart stainless steel pressure cooker is a multi-purpose pot that can stand in as a conventional soup pot as well as perform the kitchen magic that pressure cookers are famous for. Chicken Cacciatore cooks in 8 minutes! This professional-quality stainless steel pressure cooker is a handy addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools. The heavy-duty lid locks down during cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. This pressure cooker is useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 65 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even desserts like 5-minute custards! Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork; or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture. Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this stainless steel pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The Presto 6-quart pressure cooker is fully immersible; in addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 9 inches in diameter (17 inches including handles) and 8-1/2 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

 Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker January 9, 2009
Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker
Just the right size and much lighter than our old cast aluminum model.
Came in just 2 days during the Christmas rush.
 Pressure cooker January 8, 2009
For the money, this cooker was an excellent choice. It sealed quickly and was relatively quiet. The meat I cooked was tender and moist.
Great cooker, lasts forever January 8, 2009
I bought my pressure cooker in the late 70's. It still works great. I think I have replaced the sealing ring only once. Note: the cooking times for dried beans are way too long. I suggest a cookbook like Bean Cookery by Bill & Sue Deeming. For example, the Presto cookbook says to cook (presoaked) black beans for 35 minutes, but they only need 5-8 minutes.
Stainless Steel pressure cooker January 7, 2009
The pot was purchased as a gift for my God Mother. I gave it to her before Christmas. She researched them and told me that is what she wanted for Christmas. She has used it atleast twice already and is very very pleased with it. I would choose it again as a gift.
