Your food will be healthier because all the water soluble vitamins and minerals are retained. You'll also enjoy the tender taste of slow cooking and the natural flavors and colors of your food. But best of all? Your cooking time will be reduced by up to 70%!
Customer Review: nice product
nice product because i can use it to pressure cook my half pint jars of jelly i make from my apple tree. I can also use it to cook other types of meat and come out nice and tender. The clean up is a breese no sticking to the pan and basket.
Customer Review: The box said Fagor but not the cooker
I ordered the Fagor Professional Duo 10-qt. Pressure Cooker and Canner and was really looking forward to getting it as it had stellar reviews. The box was for exactly what I ordered but lurking inside was a Chinese made Kitchen Essentials cooker with a non-stick surface. I notified Amazon of this anomaly and they happily exchanged the product for a true Fagor product. Alas, the same thing happened the second time. I won't use non-stick and returned the second cooker too. I suppose Amazon cannot be faulted if Fagor is hiding inferior products in their boxes but it would have saved everyone a lot of grief if someone at the warehouse could have looked inside to see if the Fagor box contained an actual Fagor cooker or an imposter. I still would like to receive what I ordered but am afraid the result would be similar.
