This is great! I've never used a pressure cooker before, but the directions that came with this one were very clear and easy to understand. The first thing I cooked was a recipe from the instruction manual -- chicken cacciatore in 8 minutes! It was great, perfectly cooked, juicy and tender. Who knew?! People, this is a great device. I've only been using it about a week, but I've already cooked dry beans, and risotto (perfect risotto from scratch in about 5 minutes - quicker then a mix (and of course way better), and none of the constant stirring of regular risotto recipes. I love my pressure cooker and will definitely be using it more and more in the future. I'd highly recommend this pressure cooker (and the recipes that come with it to get you started).

I purchased this cooker based on the customer review and, it turned out to be a total disaster!
I have cooked using a pressure cooker for more than 15 years and know exactly how to use.
It did not cook well enough the rice mixed with grains at first, and I put more water and reheated them in a medium heat. After 3-4 munites, it burnt off everything. I can't wash it with force as it was stuck with burnt grains.
I need to return it as it is defective, but am not sure how they would react.
It's not worth the money and time at all.

I purchased this for quick meal preparation and its inherent quality of maintaining nutritional value during the cooking process. I selected the stainless steel 8 quart model, having once owned a smaller aluminum unit.
This product is almost commercial grade heavy gauge stainless. That being said, besides its weight, it is extremely difficult to open and close if you have little hand strength, dexterity or arthritis. I'm just old with a little arthritis, and this lid is almost impossible to operate. I now wish I had purchased the smaller unit with the longer handles to provide more leverage for twisting off the top. Someone may want to consider this if purchasing for yourself or others. Nothing like wrestling with a two gallon steaming bulk of a pot!
I live alone and wanted this to prepare meals quickly for myself (with a few leftovers), so I guess the only good thing is now I have to depend on a dinner guest who can close it and open it for me. Sad that it has such a short handle and my opposable thumbs aren't what they use to be. Too much of a challenge.
