Less Cook Time

January 11, 2011
"I really needed a pressure cooker so I could cut down on my cooking time for stews and peas. Well I got this one on sale last week and I just cooked with it for the first time. It did the job for sure but it made a heck of a mess on my stove top. The gasket lets off bursts of steam at 30sec intervals and this is what messes up the stove as well as the area around the gasket. Clean up was fairly easy but the area around the gasket needed special attention. All in all, except for the mess, it's a good buy."

Awesome Pressure Cooker

December 7, 2010
"I bought this pressure cooker to save me time in cooking. We usually buy beef tendons to eat with our Vietnamese beef noodle "Pho". It usually takes me 3 long hours to cook the tendons but with this, it cuts it down to 30-45 minues. Beef tendons is very hard and tough. Not only this saves me time but it also saves me gas money. My mom came by this weekend and she was amazed by it and now I have to get her one this week. I have no problem with this at all. Word of advice, do not try to open the lid while it is still hot. I had an accident with water splattering everywhere. Now I know I have to be patience and wait till it completely cool down before I open the lid. Excellent product. Love it!"

Awsome safety features

August 23, 2010
"I was always weary of cooking with a pressure cooker; the manual has very clear steps and gave a rough starting point on cooking times. I am so glad to be able to cook beans in 20 minutes instead of 4 or 5 hours"

pressure cooker fine, gasket poor quality

August 5, 2010
"I've used the pressure cooker twice, and it works really well. However, the gasket ripped while I was hand drying it - it didn't take much pressure for it to rip.
I haven't been able to find a replacement yet.
I've used pressure cookers for 30+ years, and I like the safety features on this. Wish the gasket was a better quality

Good at first, but...

May 27, 2010
"I bought this to shorten my cooking time.Besides the fact that it took me forever to understand how to use it,when I finally did, it was pretty cool,but after the first couple of uses it started to get hard water stains in the pan so I ended up getting rid of it. Next time I will just invest in a better Pressure Cooker."

"this pressure cooker is a very good one for Indian cooking.
It is great and does not burn food either(like pulav,ghee rice etc),boils currys over constant heat.and the look is also very nice and shiny.goodto cook early in the morning as the pressure whistle is not heard in the next room also.

BEST BUY EVER

November 27, 2009
"This one is a no-brainer... a fantastic buy, worth every penny. You'll save hours in the kitchen by using this pressure cooker. I was especially hesitant about buying ANY pressure cooker due to safety concerns but this pressure cooker has a system that seems pretty safe and it does an excellent job"
