Best Kitchen Tool Invented!
Lois
Talk about longevity....since 1971 I've been using the 4 and 6 qt aluminum cookers my mother received as wedding presents in 1948. (OK, she was afraid to use them much, but follow the instructions and you'll be fine.)

Better than a crock pot or microwave....wouldn't live without one. Also have a 2 quart to shorten cooking time for brown rice.

They're even better when used on a boat at sea. Not only to they save fuel but the locking lid keeps the contents inside during rough seas. Fellow sailors have even figured out how to use their pressure cookers as stove-top ovens to bake bread!

Family Heritage is gonna change
Julie Kelly
I grew up with my great grandma and grandma and mother all having Presto Pressure cookers- I still have thier recipe books! I was so excited when I finally found one big enough for my family of 6 but the excitement has waned quickly. While I love the locking feature, the rest stinks. The inside is not smooth and easy to clean out after one cooking of a tomato based sauce. The bottom of the pan also warped after 2 times and now does not sit evenly on a glass cook top or counter- it wobbles. Then recently I went to make Porcupine Balls (their recipe) and the lid didn't end up sealing right so the lock couldn't rise up and the pressure didn't build right. Instead the bottom burned so solid that I cannot get it cleaned no matter what I do. It concerns me also that the lid allows you to close it past the locking point, so you have to pay attention that the lock will be in the right spot to rise up. I grew up with these- I know how to use them but this was just flat out disappointment. I would strongly suggest you spend the money for the stainless steel and not even bother with the aluminum.

I've used many pressure cookers and caners and this one is the most reliable!
Sturdy, easy to clean, and cooks everything quickly & evenly. By quickly I mean faster than half the time it would normally take.

This size is a wonderful size when preparing meals for 3-5 people.
