4 out of 5 stars Pressure Cooker   December 1, 2007
Gin (South GA)
Presto 01241 4-Quart Aluminum Pressure Cooker

Great for standard pressure cooker needs, not larger enough for those really big jobs.
Only issue I have is that the finish dulled completely when put in dishwasher

Extremely easy to cook in. Extremely easy to clean. In short, a delight for a single person who doesn't wish to spend too much time scrubbing and standing by the gas.


1 out of 5 stars Cheap and That's What it's Worth   October 19, 2007

There is little good about this Presto 4qt Aluminum pressure cooker. It...

Cannot keep the handle tight, I have to tighten it down about every other use.

Cannot form a steam tight seal, steam leaks out around the handles, making them hot to touch, and through the pressure stem indicator that is supposed to seal off...it doesn't.

Cannot keep the broth (fluid) inside from spewing out the weighted rocker pressure regulator even though the fluid level is well below the 4 guart level.

Has no opposing handle; so picking it up while hot and full is problematic when trying to move the cooker to a faucet to cool it down.

In a word, we got what we paid for...the cheapest and worst made pressure cooker on the market.

good for the price, but it is not so easy to make out the "right" rice comapared with my former ones. Anyway, it's good!

I'm used to cooking slowly, and waiting forever to get my food... Now I don't know what to do with all the extra time! I am going to buy another one so that I can cook a side dish quickly as well.
