Amazon.com Review
The Durotherm pressure cooker combines the best of pressurized and conventional cooking in an elegant vessel. Kuhn Rikon makes the cooker in Switzerland of mirror-polished, double-walled 18/10 stainless-steel construction, with a heat-efficient aluminum core in the base. Two stay-cool side handles and a clip-on insulated base allow you to carry and place this beauty directly on the table for elegant serving. Two lids are included: a two-handled pressure lid with its new-generation spring-loaded valve for safety; and a thermal-insulated lid with stay-cool handle for highly efficient, self-basting conventional cooking. Thanks to the insulated lid and base, the food inside the cooker can stay hot for two hours after it's done, a boon to a family on a staggered eating schedule. Also included is a steam trivet that sets inside the bottom of the pot for virtually water-free and therefore highly nutritious cooking. Swiss company Kuhn Rikon has been making and improving upon pressure cookers since 1949. The Durotherm and Duromatic cookers are quieter, safer, and a smart option in today's world, given how quickly one cooks and how much energy it saves. Pressure cookers are rapidly gaining in popularity, and the Durotherm is an exceptional model. You'll find such foods as rice, grains, stews, poultry, and vegetables cook in just one-third the time of conventional methods, and retain vital nutrients. By saving 70 percent of the gas or electricity normally used in conventional cooking, the pressure cooker can pay for itself in just months. Kuhn Rikon covers the dishwasher-safe cooker with a 10-year warranty on materials and workmanship, and guarantees parts will be available for 15 years. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box

Durotherm is wonderful December 5, 2003

I had a set of these pans years ago when I lived in Switzerland, and have wanted to buy a set after moving home again, but didn't think I'd find them.
You can steam vegetables in these without any water but what clings to them after washing. Robust natural flavors really come out when cooking this way. The pan itself is remarkably light because there's a hollow core between the two walls of the sides (which insulates & keeps food hot after you take it off the stove). Best of all, they all come with snap on bottom/trivets, so you can take the pan directly to the table from the stove.
