Features

• Vitaquick pressure cookers are completely silent and steam-free under pressure, so less water, energy, and time are needed.
• The handle automatically locks with an audible click when closed properly and features a visual indicator window that changes from red to green when securely locked. Pressure cannot build until the lid is properly locked and the visual indicator is green.
• Vitaquick has a conical pot shape, so that cookers of the same diameter may be stacked for space-saving storage without scratching or wedging.
• Cleaning the maintenance-free main control valve simply involves rinsing the lid under running water, and does not require removal for cleaning in the dishwasher.
• The lid handle can easily be removed if desired with a simple thumbscrew.
• The internal measuring scale is a fast and easy reference for pressure cooking beginners and pros alike.
• The completely redesigned lid has a positioning aid and simplified rim to ensure easy operation with one hand.
• The CookStar all-stove base, made of an extra-thick aluminum core and high-quality stainless steel, ensures that the base will never separate, warp, or develop hotspots, even on induction stoves.
• Suitable for gas, electric, ceramic, and induction.

Perfect Size for High Altitude Rice or Potatoes
By Harlan
We live at 6200 feet and use a pressure cooker for foods like rice or boiled potatoes almost daily. i decided to try this brand after seeing a review in a food magazine that said that food would not stick.The review was correct. Even when we let rice get a little too dry it did not stick badly. The base is very heavy, and must have great heat distribution.The lid and locking mechanism are very easy to understand and use. The pop-up steam pressure indicator took some figuring out.The size we purchased (4.8qt) is perfect for rice, boiled potatoes, and vegetables. if you are doing soups or meats for a family you would probably need a larger size.The overall quality is excellent, and it seems like this pressure cooker will last for a long time. This manufacturer also makes a model that can be used as a regular stovetop pot in addition to a pressure cooker.

Perfect for everyday cooking
By K. M.
The 4.8 qt size is perfecto for me. It is not too big or heavy, so it is easy to use and clean. It definitely is big enough for cooking for 4 people or so. (You would need a bigger one if you want to steam a lot of vegetables or cook a whole chicken.)The quick pressure release feature is convenient and works well. The cooker heats quickly and evenly; you can sear or sauté the ingredients and then pressure-cook, which is hard to do with an electric pressure cooker. (I have an electric unit, but I don't like it at all.) I wonder how I lived without it for so long!
