Excellent pressure cooker
By Ed
I purchased 3 pressure cookers from Amazon. A 4 qt Fagor Futuro, Prestige stainless, and this Kuhn. I am not very pleased with the Fagor. It is the correct capacity, looks nice, built solid, but leaks steam around the handles so that it takes a long time to get a seal. The Prestige is very nice, seals tight, and comes up to pressure quickly. However, the handles looks and feel cheap, and you have to maintain your burner at higher temperatures as the cooker vents steam when it reaches high pressure. The Kuhn takes the best properties of the other two pressure cookers, and efficiently cooks your food. However, I have noticed it frequently drops pressure so you have to turn up the burner for a few minutes. It requires more attention to keep it at pressure by increasing and decreasing the burner settings. That is the only reason I took off a star. Otherwise it is the best pressure cooker that I have tried.

One beautiful cooker!
By Linda
First of all, this PC is gorgeous to look at! It also is a very nice size for one or two people and for cooking all kinds of vegetables, small meals, etc.It is SO easy to use! I'd never used a stove top pressure cooker before and in less than five minutes I had all the information I needed to be able to cook on my range with ease and confidence.If you've used the old rocker-style cookers you'll love how completely quiet this unit is.I'm amazed at how easy it is to prepare quick meals that taste as good or better than those cooked the conventional ways.Edited to add: Since I purchased this cooker I have ordered THREE more Kuhn Rikons in different sizes.I have used this small cooker almost daily since its purchase and I don't know how I managed to cook for so long without it. The smaller size is fabulous for vegetables and smaller meals.I've cooked beets, carrots, chicken Marsala, Lentils, Red Beans and Rice and countless other dishes. Everything has been just wonderful. I love having the larger sizes for stocks and stews and soups as well but this one is my go-to cooker, it is a kitchen essential for me.

By Rebecca Crowell
This Kuhn Rikon braiser pressure cooker is the best thing in my kitchen. I love it to pieces. I bought a larger P-cooker before this one, a very inexpensive one that, granted, does the job fine, but this Kuhn Rikon is perfection to me. It's beautiful to look at and it is easy to use. It works so quickly that once it comes up to pressure and is cooking along (silently, I might add, unlike the cheaper one with the jiggler on the top), I sit right next to it on my stool and watch it to be sure it doesn't go down in pressure (I cook on a glasstop electric stovetop). As soon as the little pressure button pops up and I can see the lines marked on it, I turn down the heat to low and pretty much leave it there for the duration. I have cooked beef stew in this - perfect for 2 people for 2 dinners, but this pan is so heavy and wonderful, I use it on the stovetop, with a plain glass cover, all the time just for making anything else. It's perfect size for a family of 2 like we are and we always have leftovers. I give this 5 stars but would give it 10 if I had the chance...
