Customer Review: Great pressure cooker
I've been using this pressure cooker for about 2 months now and I absolutely love it! It is super easy to use, substantial in weight, and way better than my old one with the jiggle thing on top.

Customer Review: Great Product
This is my first pressure cooker, and I also had to replace a 10 year old crock pot, so the 1 product doing both appealed to me. I have used it as the pressure cooker and the crock pot option, both work well. Having not used a pressure cooker before, I can't compare, but I have tried several recipes in this cooker and found they work well, even with the lower psi as other reviews noted. I love the brown feature, allows you to quickly brown meats in the same pan as you are planning to use for slow cooking or pressure. Clean up is really easy with coated pan. The only disadvantage I see is only one setting for slow cooking, no low/high settings, but the other features such as the brown, warming and time delay setting more than make up for any downsides in my opinion. Overall great product and highly recommend!
Customer Review: Excellent multi-cooker but high setting = only 9psi
Excellent multi-cooker but high setting = only 9psi The recommendation to purchase Miss Vickie's book at the same time is unfortunate -- nearly every one of the recipes requires 15psi. The same thing applies to 'Pressure Perfect' by Lorna Sass -- she states that one should only look for a pressure cooker that operates from 14 to 16psi. Anything else is a waste of time. In any case the Fagor 3-in-1 does everything very well -- slow cook, braising, soups, beans, rice, etc. But it is not convenient if you intend to follow recipes. It also does not come with a steaming basket insert.

Fagor Splendid 6-Quart Pressure Cooker Sunday, December 21, 2008
Pressure cooking uses pressurized steam to cook healthy meals with beans, grains, meat, poultry, and seafood in much less time than many other cooking methods require. This Splendid pressure cooker holds a maximum capacity of 6 quarts of Italian chicken soup or beans with sausage and works on all heat sources. The cooker is constructed of high-quality 18/10 stainless steel with an encapsulated aluminum base for even and efficient heat distribution. For safety, the pressure cooker has dual pressure settings on its handle--one in a dial control and another on a valve. Other safety measures include two pressure release valves and a locking handle to prevent the unit from opening while under pressure. A visual indicator lets you know when all the pressure has been released and the cooker is ready to open. This pressure cooker is dishwasher-safe. --Cristina Vaamonde

Customer Review: Fagor vs Presto
I have a Presto 4 qt. pressure cooker which I like a lot, but wanted something bigger so I bought the Fagor 6 qt. The inside diameter of the Fagor is 8 3/4" vs 8 3/8" for the Presto, 3/8" difference which may not seem like much, but I cook mostly with stainless steel inserts, bowls and the like, to get the double boiler effect, and it's easier to get the bowls out of the Fagor, a tricky job when they are still hot. But the Fagor makes a hissing sound at a pitch I didn't like at all. So I went back to the Presto which makes a nice chuga-chuga sound with the little cap rocking back and forth, a sound I actually find pleasing (I'm a violinmaker, so sound matters to me). But then I found an old aluminum cooker at Goodwill, which I scavenged for the vent tube and cap, and installed it on the Fagor. Voila! A Fagor-Presto. It has the size I like and now the sound also. If you're not handy like that, I would go with the 6 qt. Presto, nice simple design, and that comforting sound heralding a good meal.
Customer Review: Nice
The pressure maintains nicely without the old "jiggler". I wish it would have come with a rack and steamer unit.
