Summary: Worth the price, be brave and try it out
Comment: My wife insisted on getting a pressure cooker, I just didn't see a use for it. Finally gave in and tried it out.
1st use - Red Bean & taro sweet soup - usually red beans has to soak in water for about 6-8 hours, and cook for about 2 hours. We did the cooking without soaking the beans, pressure cook for 10 minutes with slow cool down. WOW, it was perfect, the beans cooked thoroughly.
2nd time - Black glutinous rice w/ coconut milk - this type of rice is extremely difficult to cook, takes forever. 24-36 hours of presoak, and couple hours in the rice cooker. I've never sucessfully cooked it before, this time with the pressure cooker, it was SUCCESS!! This is a heavenly dessert, my diet is completely thrown out the window.
Why you have to be brave? When we started using it, really don't know what we were doing. Accidentally poked the rubber lid while pressure was building and it shot up and stem blew out like crazy, thought it was going to blow up. lol Had to read the instructions carefully before using it. After 1 use, you'll get the idea, most items takes 10-15 min to cook and slow cool down.

Summary: As good as expected
Comment: Pretty darn good product,(wish it were American made). Simple to use, I would highly recommend Lorna Sass's cookbook to go with it. Her instructions for using PC much clearer than manufacture's, and also has good basic recipes with many easy variations. Have been using it for fast and healthy meals after work. Meat loaf and potatoes cooked in same pot in 10 minutes WOW. Barley soup in 15, big energy saving also.

Summary: This pressure cooker works great!!!
Comment: I have been using this pressure cooker for over a month now and love the convenience and quality. I have cooked several chuck roasts with wonderful results in a 1/4 of the time it usually takes when cooking the conventional way. I've also cooked pork roasts with good results. I can't really think of anything I don't like about it. I'm looking forward to making soups, etc,.

Summary: Presto 8-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker/Canner
Comment: Very well constructed. Excellent capacity. New pressure technology is superior to old style on my 20-year old unit. Easier to use and comes complete with needed accessories. Nothing extra to buy. I recommend it.
