All-American 41-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First off, Very fast shipping. Ordered on Saturday and recieved on Tuesday. We do a fair bit of canning. About 200+ pints/quarts per year. This canner is an absolute piece of craftsmanship. Very heavy and well built with an impeccable finish. The wire racks could use a few more rings for smaller pints and half pints but it is not a major issue. Great capacity which will make our canning much faster and easier. The heavy cast aluminum makes maintaining an even temperature very easy and I find I can use less gas to maintain the desired pressure compared to our old pressure canner. Very accurate weight and gauge makes getting the proper pressure a breeze. If properly cared for and maintained I can see this canner lasting generations. Expensive but definitely worth it for the serious home canner. Recommend highly.

The high heat generated by a pressure cooker can kill more bacteria than a regular hot water bath, making this pressure cooker the ideal tool for canning vegetables and non-acid fruit. All-American's 41-1/2-quart pressure cooker/canner holds up to 32 pint jars or 19 quart jars, and includes two wire canning racks. Only All-American pressure cookers/canners feature an exclusive, precision-machined "metal-to-metal" sealing system. Clamping locks align the cover to the base, forming a steam-tight seal. This means no gaskets to crack, burn, replace, and clean. At the same time, the metal-to-metal seal permits venting under unusual pressure conditions, making the seal safer than conventional rubber or composition gasket cookers.
Crafted of the finest hand-cast aluminum, this durable cooker/canner features a stay-cool Bakelite top handle, geared steam gauge, automatic overpressure release, and pressure regulator weight with settings of 5 psi, 10 psi, and 15 psi. The attractive satin finish is smooth and easy to clean. Double thick edges provide added protection on points of heaviest wear. The total measurements are 19 inches high with a 15-1/4-inch inside diameter. All-American pressure cookers are made in the USA. This cooker/canner is not suitable for glass or flat top ranges.

Presto Pressure Canner Pressure Regulator Review

Presto Pressure Canner Pressure Regulator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This item - part 50332 is the 3 piece weight set needed to convert a Presto 16 or 23 quart pressure canner from a gauged to a weighted canner. However the picture used here and the description are grossly inaccurate. This is a 3 piece weight set of 5-10-15 pound weights. 2 parts are rings (only one pictured) that slip on to the 3rd stemmed piece which sits on the steam valve. It is an excellent product for those who do alot of pressure canning. Too bad the photo and description are so misleading as they will only create confusion and cause lost sales.

Kuhn Rikon Duromatic Top Pressure Cooker 3.75-Quart Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have two of these pressure cookers, the 2.5 L frying pan and a 6L pot and I use these routinely, especially the frying pan.
When I get home from work, I can fry chicken in about 10 minutes from the time it hits the grease.
I 'steam' potatoes (peeled and quartered) for 5-10 minutes, then use the cooked potatoes for mashed potatoes. Since they have never been immersed in water, they have the absolute maximum of flavor and nutrients. Everybody raves about these mashed potatoes, especially if they are made with something like Klondike potatoes. It just about as fast using the pressure cooker as it is to make instant mashed potatoes in the microwave.
I cook pot roast, chicken cacciatorre, stews, soups and especially bean dishes and brown rice. I turn the heat up to high until the second ring is exposed and then turn the burner down to the absolute minimum. It really does save a considerable about of energy and time. If you have a family of 4, get the 2.5 L frying pan. You'll never regret it.

Wearever 92280 8-Quart Stainless-Steel Pressure Cooker with Locking Lid Review

Wearever 92280 8-Quart Stainless-Steel Pressure Cooker with Locking Lid
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I feel cheated after purchasing this pressure cooker 2 days ago,Aug.25, 09, both by Amazon & by Mirro/Wearever. My experiences should warn others away from both vendors to others MORE HONEST.
First Wearever/Mirro: 1) Most pressure cookers today have a standard of 15 [fifteen] pounds per square inch of cooking pressure. This is what one should expect & get. Not these, that have only 10[ten]psi, meaning much longer cooking times. Much of the pressure cooking advantage is reduced, cooking times increased, more nutrients lost [there is a time x temperature interaction for many compounds].
2) It is not clearly stated that this cooker is of the type with a separate weighted pressure head instead of the more modern in-built type. There is no way to determine this from the product description by Amazon which should be clearer about these 2 important features: the working pressure, if non-standard, and the type of head.
Amazon: 2 days ago, the price was $37.98, today it is $35. Apparently, this item is not selling well, so the price dropped 3/38 in 2-3 days; it will fall further, probably because customer dissatisfaction is VERY VERY HIGH with both sets of vendors. Warning: I was foolish: will find only only a few customer reviews, 2-3, for this product. Compare that with the better brands, for which you will see 300+ reviews. That itself speaks volumes: people are buying those brands and NOT Wearever. Only fools like me buy brands on clearance!! You either buy what you like or
like what you buy, its that simple.This is my first ever cookware purchase from Amazon and my last.

Cut cooking times up to 70-percent compared to conventional cooking methods with this 8-quart pressure cooker. The unit combines steam, heat, and pressure--while retaining all the nutrients and flavor of food--for delicious home-cooked meals like pot roast, chili, vegetable stew, chicken and rice, and more. Simply add food, secure the lid, turn up the heat, and it takes care of the rest. The pressure cooker features durable stainless-steel construction with an encapsulated aluminum base for fast, even heating and thorough cooking. To help ensure safe operation, the unit's tight-fitting lid comes equipped with locking handles, a sliding lock-release mechanism that keeps the lid secure during cooking, and a pressure-monitoring gauge that prevents the lid from being opened while still under pressure. Additional highlights include an over-pressure release valve on the underside of the lid, which relieves pressure if the vent tube experiences blockage, as well as an over-pressure gasket-release window that serves as a backup in case both the vent tube and the over-pressure release valve become blocked. The 8-quart pressure cooker measures approximately 12-1/5 by 18-4/5 by 12-1/2 inches and cleans up easily by hand.

Vasconia 4-Quart Aluminum Pressure Cooker Review

Vasconia 4-Quart Aluminum Pressure Cooker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I bought this pressure cooker, my goals were: (a) learn how to quickly prepare healthy meals, thereby avoiding fast food; and (b) not blow up my kitchen. Price was a major consideration, as my salad shooter, electric cheese grater, ice cream maker, and electric frying pan don't need another expensive companion in the "haven't used it in years" cabinet above the refrigerator.
Since I only paid $19.95 for the pressure cooker, I figured my first meal should be frugal as well. I bought some fresh broccoli, peas, mild chilies, and carrots on manager's sale at the local grocery. I sautéed a small onion and a diced tomato in the bottom of the cooker , then added the vegetables, three cups of rice, pepper, and a 26 oz. container of chicken broth. I clamped the lid on, cranked up the burner until steam started coming out, then put on the steam valve, lowered the heat, and cooked the whole thing for about 5 minutes. The result was a very tasty vegetable paella.
Here are a few hints for anyone buying one of these cookers. First, the master steam valve cap comes in a very small unmarked brown box in the bottom of the big box with the pressure cooker. It's very easy to miss, and I actually had to go fishing through my recycle bin to find it.
Also, there is a safety lock on the handle that engages when the cooker is under pressure. It is a small metal rod that protrudes down into the cooker and rises when pressure builds. You have to be careful not to over fill the cooker, or the valve can get stuck. If this happens, all the steam will escape through handle and you'll end up with a steamer instead of a pressure cooker.
I tested my pressure cooker by filling it with a few cups of water, letting the steam build, and checking the valves.
I couldn't find an answer in the directions, but I think you are supposed to hand wash these cookers; not put them in the dishwasher.
Overall, a pretty handy gadget for well less than the cost of a family dinner. For now, I'm keeping mine on the kitchen counter, close the the drawer with all the fast food menus. I'm hoping it stays there, in use, for a good while.

Average Reviews:

I bought this set because I did not know if I wanted a 4 quart or 6 quart pressure cooker, this set solved my problem. When I got this set I was impressed with the quality as it was heavy SS inside and out. My pressure cooker set had only two settings, one for 15 psi and another for 8.5 psi, not three that this listing said. I also ordered the steam basket and trivet ($20), extra gasket ($12), and a SS top ($20) for either base from Magefesausa.com who told me that their pressure cookers only have the two pressure settings and that description of 3 settings was in error.

Mirro 22-Quart Polished Aluminum Pressure Cooker/Canner Review

Mirro 22-Quart Polished Aluminum Pressure Cooker/Canner
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I know about canners. I can A LOT, and run two canners at one time. It is really getting hard to find a canner like this with a "jiggler" on top rather than a pressure gauge. I cannot stress enough that a weight system like this is just SO MUCH BETTER than a gauge if you are doing any volume of canning. If you are canning meats, you need to monitor your canner for 90 minutes, and if you have to babysit a gauge, you will get sick of it really fast. With a jiggler like this canner has, you can just listen, and know the pressure is correct. As long as the weight on top is just gently jiggling, everything is a.o.k. and you can read, or go the the restroom, or whatever you need to do. Plus, as years go by, I find it really hard to trust a gauge. You know the weight on this one will stay constant. I have one of this model of canner, and I'm buying another one today, to replace a perfectly good machine with a gauge.

The Mirro 22-quart pressure cooker can certainly be used for cooking extra-large batches of stews, soups and chili, but thanks to its extra-large capacity it really shines as a pressure canner. It can hold up to 16 pint jars, 14 wide mouth pint jars, 30 half pint jars, or 5 quart jars. Made of rust-proof, heavy-gauge aluminum, the cooker has a stay-cool, locking handle, and it features three knobs that hold the internal pressure at one of three options--5, 10, and 15 PSI. Mirro pressure cookers are designed with safety in mind, and its Triple Safe Design includes a safety release plug, sure-locking lid system, and side gasket pressure release. It comes with complete instructions and a recipe booklet.

Back to Basics 286 5-Piece Home Canning Kit Review

Back to Basics 286 5-Piece Home Canning Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am brand new at canning, and did my first batch prior to ordering these tools. It went okay, but I was immediately sold on the idea of a jar lifter. I looked and looked locally but couldn't find one, and this set was available for immediate shipment.
The jar lifter is fantastic, and ultimately I think it alone is worth the price of admission -- not because it's worth it in and of itself, but because it's a total necessity, so I would have purchased it at any price that wouldn't break the bank.
The other pieces are either already part of a moderately well-equipped kitchen, are nice but not necessary, and/or are not all that well constructed.
I'd opted to return a relatively expensive set of plastic funnels when I purchased this set, but the included funnel here melted a bit under the heat of the boiling brine I poured over the pickles-to-be. Same for the plastic surrounding the magnet when I used it (quite effectively) to grab the jar lids out of a simmer sauce pan. The lid wrench I'm just not sure I see a use for, since jars aren't supposed to be super tight and they tend to loosen when cooled anyway (or am I misunderstanding what this is for?), and the tongs, well, who doesn't have tongs?
Anyway, in researching for this review, I've come to feel like something of an idiot, because the pieces are available separately and eligible for the free shipping promotion of your choice. Unless you don't already have a funnel, or don't mind the possibility of plastic in your canned food, I recommend saving five bucks and just getting these two pieces:
Back to Basics 284 Jar Lifter
Back to Basics 174 Magnetic Lid Lifter
If you need more than those two pieces, though, this set will do the job.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received a Perfect-Plus pressure cooker as a Christmas gift. I have used it several times a week since then, because it is so fun to use & experiment with. I have been interested in cooking with a pressure cooker for a while - but was intimidated by them.
I was given a 4.5 quart cooker, which was too small for some of the recipes in the recipe book that comes with the cooker. I exchanged it for a 6.5 quart cooker, and that has been a useful size.
The Perfect Plus is incredibly easy to use. It has a very clear pressure gauge that makes it easy to adjust to medium & high pressure. It does not make any noise. It is very easy to release the pressure gently, without letting out a blast of steam.
I have let the cooker get too hot a few times. It makes a clearly audible "hooting" noise, and you just remove it from the heat.
It is heavy and seems very well made. The handle clicks on, making it very easy to take apart and clean. I have not used any other pressure cookers, but it is hard for me to imagine that they are any easier to use. The Perfect-Plus is a great pressure cooker, and very simple to use.

I've bought several Fagor pressure cookers through the years and they always work fine. In fact they work great! This pressure cooker is no different. The only thing that's kind of tricky is getting the lid lined up so the pressure cooker is sealed. The Splendid and Duo models are a bit easier to line up but it's not a problem.
I do love the short handles used to make this pressure cooker set which is why I bought them. You can store the pots using less space.
As always I highly recommend the Fagor pressure cookers. They work well and are our far cheaper than their pricier counterparts.

Pressure cookers are gaining momentum as the new healthy, time-saving, and energy-saving way to prepare food. Pressure cooking also retains up to 50-percent more vitamins and minerals, and it requires less fat and oil when compared to other cooking methods, which means healthier, lower fat meals. While not a new method, the technology has certainly been transformed over the years to be easier and safer than ever. This six-piece set makes it possible to save up to 70 percent of the time and energy traditionally used in cooking rice, meat, and vegetables. The set includes a 4-quart pot, a 6-quart pot, a pressure-cooker lid that fits both pots, a tempered glass lid that fits both pots, and a stainless-steel steamer basket that rests on the inner ridge of the 6-quart pot, making it easy to prepare two dishes at the same time; the steamer basket can also be used as a food grater or a support trivet. Use the pots as pressure cookers with the pressure-cooker lid or as regular stockpots with the glass lid. An instruction manual and a "Tastefully Under Pressure" full-color cookbook with over 90 delicious recipes are also included.
For safety, the pressure cooker features a triple valve safety system, a visual pressure indicator, and an auto-locking handle that prevents the lid from opening before all the pressure has been released. The user-friendly dial format of its spring-type mechanism offers two pressure settings--low (8 psi) and high (15 psi), and its easy-cleaning auto pressure-release valve reduces food-particle build-up. Constructed from 18/10 stainless steel, the cookware not only makes a beautiful addition to any kitchen collection, but it also ensure long-lasting, high-quality performance. Even more, its plastic, side loop handles and lid knob stay cool to the touch, and the 6-quart pot fits inside the 4-quart pot for compact storage. The cookware can be used on all types of domestic stovetops, including gas, electric, ceramic, and induction, and all parts except for the pressure lid are dishwasher-safe. Fagor covers the set with a 10-year limited warranty.
Founded in Spain, Fagor manufactures home appliances and cookware with a "green" focus on environmentally sound working conditions for employees and energy efficiency for consumers. In Europe, Fagor holds environmental stewardship awards, and in the U.S. is a participant in the Energy Star program, a government-backed program to help protect the environment.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great gadget, and much quieter, than any of my other models. I received it and immediately started putting it through its paces. First the water test, it went perfectly, probably did not even "lose" one tablespoon of water. Then made chicken soup, steel cut oatmeal, then black beans, all from scratch; all the food came out perfect.

I could not wait for them to come out with a smaller cooker and was so happy that this came out. As soon as I saw this little baby, I ran down the hall and got my credit card. I am so glad I did.
I foresee no problem using this unit, for me it is the perfect size for many of my recipes. This is my third electronic model, I have several larger ones from other brands, only because there was no smaller electronic choices. I also have had four stove top models which I now rarely use due to the greater ease and safety of the electronic versions.

This model has a DIY, do-it-yourself, option where you can set the cook time for up to 99 minutes (very nice for pull pork or pull chicken). No need to reset the time as with my older, larger electronic cookers). It also has a preset button, which is a delay timer (for up to 9 hours) and a keep warm (for up to 24 hours). All very handy.
The only problem I have had with it is the power cord going into the pot. If it is not firmly pushed in, it will still look like it is plugged into the pot, but it can get disengaged very easily. So if it looks like you have no power, double check that connection, and all should go well for you too.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I LOVE this cooker!!! It saves me time, work, money, nutrients, cooks 3-10 times faster. You can put food in even if not defrosted [although microwaves help that issue]. They make the best stews, soups, sweet and sour ribs, chili, puddings, cheese cakes etc. You can buy a really inexpensive cut of meat, put in your spices, some water and wine, and in less than 20 minutes it is fork tender. Whenever I have a recipe that calls for cooked chicken [like enchiladas], I buy the less expensive whole chicken, put it in the cooker and in 15-20 minutes it is falling-off-the-bone tender.
This one comes with a double locking system and two levels of pressure; one for veggies and grains; the other for more dense foods like dry beans, meats or squash. I would never be without one again. I'm going to order the companion 6 quart that Fagor makes for those larger meats and veggies!

Easy, safe, healthy and time-saving, the pressure cooker is a busy cook's best friend. This cooker allows you to select from two pressure settings without changing valves and it has a visual indicator on the handle to tell you when all pressure has been released. You can cook everyday recipes in 1/3 less time while retaining important water soluble vitamins and minerals. Want some examples? Okay, how about a cup of dried black beans ready in about 15 minutes, or an entire 3 lb. chicken ready in about the same? Risotto, done in 7 minutes or a 2 lb. lobster, cooked in 3?

Kuhn Rikon 6-Piece Duromatic Duo Pressure Cooker Set Review

Kuhn Rikon 6-Piece Duromatic Duo Pressure Cooker Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We tried so many pressure cookers over the years as Indian Cooking demands heavy use of pressure cooking for making lentil soups and curries. We even tried few models from India but none could last more than a few years. Either they have problems with safety valves, handles, or they would become loose too often that requires tightenening of handles. If they last well, they were too bulky and takes almost forever to open and close the lid. Most annoying of all, they all make crazy sound that scares both my kids.
Kuhn Rikon pressure cookers sure have expensive prices but once you see them and feel them, you will find every reason to agree that they are well worth the price. This particular 2 set model is so lovely that my wife decided to get rid of most of her cookware as they both compliment each other so well. They can be used for almost everything we cook for our daily needs. The lids are interchangeable. This makes it so convenient to pressure cook veggies and lentils and then continue to use it with glass lid to make the final curry without having to transfer the cooked veggies and lentils to another cookware to make the curry. You can cook meat much faster and tastier without having to marinate for long.
The small one is so convenient if you have small babies and would like to feed them fresh boiled veggies, rice, or lentils. It saves lot of cooking time and the cook book that comes with it is wonderful. It gives you so many nice and simple receipes for everyone.
Couple of our guests got so impressed with this that they bought it right away from Amazon.com without waiting to get an incredible deal for it in their Amazon.com GoldBox like I did.
