Summary: Learning to cook again
Comment: I am still a little intimidated by this wonderful device, but I have purchased a couple of pressure-cooking specific recipe books and I am studying the books that came with the cooker. It is a completely different approach, and it takes a some work, but on my first attempt, we had a wonderful, tender, tasty roast with tender (not mushy) potatoes, carrots, celery and gravy. I made mistakes, but it is a forgiving appliance. Spend the money for the quality and safety features - you will save it long-term by cooking good food quickly at home.

Summary: Changed our culinary life!!
Comment: WOW! have been using our Kuhn Rikon for about 5 years & can't imagine life without being able to make bean dishes anytime I want after work. Goodbye soaking, goodbye planning ahead. Hello spontaneous & speedy black-eyed peas, split pea soup & hummous from scratch.
Had been scared of pressure cookers. Lived in France in high school & remember ours exploding every couple of months - spewing soup everywhere. Heard they'd "modernized" the cookers & then researched the heck out of all the ones on the market. Took the leap w/ this one because of the redundant safety features. Was terrified to try it the first time, but have never ever ever had it explode - even when I've forgotten to turn it down after it got up to pressure (thanks to the automatic safety pressure-release).
And when you first taste how deeply spices penetrate curry dishes, soups and beans -- you'll be hooked. Not one ounce of regret for spending the extra $$ for this ultra-safe "BMW-quality" cooker.

Summary: Mercedes of Pressure Cookers
Comment: There's a good reason why the New York times reviewed this product and tagged it "The Mercedes of Pressure Cookers". This efficient piece of cookware is precision engineered and made in a modern Swiss factory where the best cookers have been made since the safe Durotherm was first developed here. On a visit to the factory we saw a clean, efficient facility which employs re-settled Tibetan refugees and uses robotics to shape these precision pots. The Duromatic factory adheres to high standards of European green manufacturing methods while producing a product as precision made as a Swiss watch.
The proof is in the cooking. We love our Duromatics, and have several in our home. For one thing it is quiet compared to older versions of pressure cookers, and safer due to several safety-release valves. When we cook things like split pea soup and roasted chicken we get perfect results with much less energy, heat, and cooking time than any other method of cookery. Once you cook artichokes this way you will never go back to your old method.
This particular size is ideal for most households and produces a family size meal in minutes. At the end it is all dishwasher safe.

This ample-sized cooker allows you to prepare a whole chicken, up to a 4-lb. roast, soups, stews - even a cheesecake for dessert. You'll find it's the perfect size for serving 6-8 hungry guests or family members, especially when you're strapped for time. This Duromatic cooker decreases cooking time up to one-third without sacrificing flavor or nutrients. In addition, the spring-loaded valve takes away the guesswork of cooking by offering visual indicators for you to see the exact pressure so you can plan your cooking accordingly. Unlike pressure cookers of yesteryear, you'll never experience noisy steam escaping or mushy food! The integrated lid-locking system offers no fewer than five safety release systems. Perhaps most important is that you can cook high-fiber, low-fat foods in record time while preserving essential vitamins and nutrients - and conserving energy! The 18/10 stainless surface won't interact with food; interior fill lines prevent overfilling. Comes with a Quick Cuisine cookbook that includes delicious recipes for everything from savory dishes to desserts.Part of the Kuhn Rikon family of products, Duromatic pressure cookers are made by experts with more than 50 years experience in their field. Each cooker combines the latest technology with top-notch quality. Their safety design has set the standard worldwide.
