FAST Cooking and Beautiful
By Betty Morgan
Fast Potato SaladUsed this to cook potatoes for a summer potato salad. Used Yukon Golds, filled insert basket with 15 potatoes, 2 cups of alkaline filtered water, brought to pressure with two rings showing for 4 minutes, quick release and the potatoes were PERFECT. Cooled them on countertop, peeled and created my potato salad.Quick Green Bean SaladDecided to try a bag of Trader Joe's Haricot Green Beans... 2 cups alkaline water, put them in steamer tray, brought to pressure with two rings for 1 minute, quick release, ice bath, drained, added dressing and refrigerated for 30 minutes.Presto Pressure CookerI also bought the Presto Stainless Steel 6 quart Pressure Cooker, but the Fissler Vitaquick is LIGHT YEARS ahead of traditional pressure cooking.BUY the Fissler, it's well worth the added cost for the ROLLS ROYCE of Pressure Cookers, the Fissler Vitaquick!Read my review and recipes at chezbettayDOTcom.UPDATE: Several people have ask about the right size to purchase. For two people this one is perfect, but I would recommend a larger 8.5 or 10 quart size for the added room. Especially if you want to cook 4 giant artichokes at one time or mashed potatoes for 8 diners. Spend the extra $$ and buy the larger size, I promise it will be a wise investment!

Wow!
By Linda
I own several Kuhn Rikon pressure cookers which I always thought were the best. When I read the Cooks Illustrated review of PCs I was intrigued by the top-rated Fissler Vitaquick. I bought the 6.4 qt. model and now I can see why it is top-rated. This is one beautiful PC. And mounting the lid correctly is SO simple. And the full-size disc bottom is a step up from other PCs. It heats up fast and it's easy to see the pressure rings.Easy to clean. I love this cooker. In fact, I just ordered the smaller 4.2Pressure Pan Set! Cooking with pressure is a big part of my life and I use my PCs several times in an average week. This one is a real keeper.

Fissler Vitaquick is awesome!
By princess & the pea
I'm so impressed with this cooker. It's really high quality workmanship and it works like a champ. My old jiggler-style pressure cooker blew the gasket once but the main thing is the noise was really unnerving. I didn't like to cook with it so we rarely used it. The Fissler 6 qt is gorgeous, sturdy, and does its job quickly and quietly. We just made the BBQ pulled pork recipe from the included cookbook and it's the best pulled pork we've ever had (and we lived in NC for years). It was tender and delicious even without adding BBQ sauce. Tested it out boiling water and have also steamed beets. I was reluctant to go the pressure cooker route (I'm a slow foodie) but my family wanted the option of quick meals of beans and rice so there you go. I read the reviews in Cook's Illustrated and after comparing this to the lower priced option decided to go for the Fissler. Really glad I did. It arrived quickly and in great condition.
