Pressure cookers have experienced renewed popularity over the last several years because cooks have rediscovered what some cooks (particularly grandmas) have known for a long time--they're really fast. And it's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. Presto's 4-quart stainless steel pressure cooker is a multi-purpose pot that can stand in as a conventional saucepan as well as perform the kitchen magic that pressure cookers are famous for. Chicken Cacciatore cooks in 8 minutes! This professional-quality stainless steel pressure cooker is a handy addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools. The heavy-duty lid locks down during cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. This pressure cooker is useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 65 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even desserts like 5-minute custards! Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork; or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture. Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this stainless steel pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The Presto 4-quart pressure cooker is fully immersible; in addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 9 inches in diameter (16-1/2 inches including handles) and 6-1/2 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

Presto is a great product. December 2, 2008
I have had a Presto stainless steel pressure cooker for 28 years and it is still going strong. I ordered this one for my mother-in-law.

I've had aluminum cookers until this one. The stainless always looks new. Four qt. is perfect size for a small family.
A Terrific Pressure Cooker! November 1, 2008
The Presto pressure cooker is wonderful--works like a charm. I have had Mirromatic pressure cookers all my life, but now I have found the Presto is better. I especially like the fact that it is stainless steel and not aluminum.
I Love My Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker October 15, 2008

My new Presto Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker allows me to purchase cheaper cuts of meats without sacrificing taste. In particular, some steaks which require more time than I have in order to assure tenderness. I am thorougly enjoying preparing soups and stews and getting rave reviews from my family. My first experience with a pressure cooker was in 1950 so I have been a user for most of my adult life. This stainless steel model is the best yet and the 4-Quart size suits me to a T. I must also mention that I prepare large amounts of mashed potatoes in a fraction of the time it would take without my Presto. Thanks for providing a safe, first-rate product.Presto 4-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker
 Great cooking utility... July 22, 2008
My only regret is that I didn't buy one of these sooner. This is a great product. I had heard horror stories about pressure cookers in the past, but these Presto pressure cookers are solid; very well made, and if you follow the directions by watching what you put into it- no jams or anything that would clog the spout, you will love this product.. Never any worries about safety when cooking with this. I think I will get the 6-quart next, as it would be a more useful size for me.
