Summary: Great pressure cooker
Comment: This pressure cooker really does the job great. It cuts the time you prepare a meal in half, or less. I have the best results with ribs. Tender every time. Roast, on the other hand, I need to cut back my time. My fault on that. Follow directions and you will have great results.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: NOT for use in CANNING
Comment: According to Presto, this 8-qt. cooker is NOT suitable for canning, because the last time testing was done for canning times in this size cooker was 30 years ago, and changes in scientific knowledge and in the types/acidity, etc., of vegetables make those times out-of-date and unsuitable for safe canning.
So . . . this is NOT a canner. Presto says the smallest canner they sell now is the 16-qt.

Summary: The Perfect Pressure Cooker
Comment: Presto 8-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker is perfect for the mid size family. We bought 1 for ourselves and liked it so much that we bought 2 more as gifts for family members. Priced at about $79., however with $30. back from Amazon, we only paid only $39.00 for our last purchase. Either way a great deal!
The last Pressure we had was also a Presto and that lasted for as long as I can remember...over 20 years. This one is sooo much better and everything just comes out perfectly. My wife is the cook in our family and she swears that not only does it cook fast and perfect, but it's also easy to handle and design of the handle makes it easy to lift and store. My sister-in-laws who got them as gifts, also concur with my wife's sentiments. We would consider buying this product again.

Summary: Look no further than this cooker
Comment: This cooker is a great value for the money and is helping us to prepare inexpensive, delicious meals very quickly. It is very durable and cleans quickly; if you're thinking of saving a few $ by getting an aluminum pot, please don't- stainless steel is a much better way to go.

Summary: does what it says
Comment: This is a quality item. Has a stainless basket and trivet inside and cooks beautifully. I bought it because I wanted to change from aluminum to stainless cookware, but was cautious about whether it would heat and cook as well as the aluminum. I was very pleased indeed with its performance. The bi-clad base is the key because the aluminum inside the two layers of stainless steel transfers the heat evenly. Using enough water for cooking, avoiding too high heat, and being careful not to run the cooker dry will avoid damage to the base. I am very pleased with this item.
