These pressure cookers are awesome
By Rich
I have two of these pressure cookers, the 2.5 L frying pan and a 6L pot and I use these routinely, especially the frying pan.When I get home from work, I can fry chicken in about 10 minutes from the time it hits the grease.I 'steam' potatoes (peeled and quartered) for 5-10 minutes, then use the cooked potatoes for mashed potatoes. Since they have never been immersed in water, they have the absolute maximum of flavor and nutrients. Everybody raves about these mashed potatoes, especially if they are made with something like Klondike potatoes. It just about as fast using the pressure cooker as it is to make instant mashed potatoes in the microwave.I cook pot roast, chicken cacciatorre, stews, soups and especially bean dishes and brown rice. I turn the heat up to high until the second ring is exposed and then turn the burner down to the absolute minimum. It really does save a considerable about of energy and time. If you have a family of 4, get the 2.5 L frying pan. You'll never regret it.

This is a perfect size for a small family/single/couple
By Linda
This is my FOURTH K-R Pressure Cooker. I bought this one because it's such a great size for smaller meals/vegetables/soups. Also I really love the Duromatic Top®, it's a real improvement over the older style as it is so much easier to read the markings at a distance and it is effortless to release the pressure as you can just rotate the knob and walk away. I just love cooking in my pressure cookers.

Our Favorite Cookware
By Bella
We have three Kuhn Rikon pressure cookers and we use them almost every time we cook - it's the main cookware we use. It's fast, easy, and it saves energy because it takes less time to cook. And the food's great - I like eating at home better than any restaurant.
