AWS.ECommerceService.NoExactMatchesAWS.ECommerceService.NoExactMatchesMy Mom has used a pressure cooker for years…one of the old fashioned ones with the jiggly weight on top. I had never given one much thought until recently. So after much research I bought this set. Now I wonder, “What took me so long?” The modern ones are so much more safe and the stainless steel ones are much lighter than the old cast aluminum ones.
This Fagor U Cook set is well designed and well thought out. It is the best of all pressure cooker worlds, everything is included you will probably need. Dual pressure, well made, large and small pots, can be used as a regular pot w/ glass lid, has the rack and insert baskets (one of which is also a grater), and the large pot fits inside the small one for storage. The included recipe book is a good for starters, but the internet is full of recipes, too.
Yes, it has a learning curve, and yes, you better read the book before you start. No, it won’t replace my microwave, crock pot, or oven, but it will always have a place on my stove. My results, so far, have been good.
I only have a couple of “cons”: First, the main handle is a bit too short and oddly shaped. I find it a bit awkward to hold with my ham hands. It is also a bit awkward to try and hold the spring latch and turn the lid to open it. Second, they recommend storing the lid upside down on top of the pot. The shape of the lid is such that it doesn’t really sit upside down well,
Overall I would buy this set again, and I would get it from Amazon again. I recommend it highly.
