I bought this 6-qt stainless pressure cooker and have been very pleased with it.The bottom is triple clad, and heavy-duty.It is 'induction' ready, too, for those who cook by this method.This pressure cooker is well worth the money and works well, cleans up well, and can accomodate the same stainless trivet and "little pan" that goes into the 8-qt stainless pressure cooker (which I bought before I got this 6-qt one.)
Rating:  - nice pressure cooker
good price and it works fine, i like the look as well, easy to clean and use.

I learned to cook using a pressure cooker - save time and fuel in addition to making healthy tasty meals.Soups and stews that use dried beans can be accomplished in minutes rather than in hours.I have cooked with Presto 6-Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker for a number of years.I use it at least 4 days a week.I am very happy with the product.It is not as expensive as some other makes but it does the job well.I have had to replace some of the rubber parts that wear out once in a while.Other than that, there is no maintenance.I am using a 6 qt cooker.It is big enough to hold two smaller flat (handle-less) stacked vessels such that I can cook two different dishes.You can buy these cooker-inserts in Indian grocery stores.

Mother in Law liked ours so much......SHE TOOK IT for herself!...aaarrgghh!
We liked it so much WE BOUGHT A SECOND ONE for ourselves! HANDS OFF MOM!
Go to the Presto website and order the drop-in basket; it helps keep the veggies in one place and makes them easy to get out of the cooker.
Rating: - Great pressure cooker-highly recommended
This is not my first pressure cooker. I was looking for a replacement for some weirdo one my hubby's ex left him years ago. I have a giant-sized Presto pressure canner and love it. So I like Presto and liked the size of the ex's weirdo canner. (weird because it had handles that came off all the time, no instructions, no visible brand I could find and was a strange operator.)
I wanted stainless steel--easier in the long run, to clean and to cook in. Six quarts is just about the perfect size since I rarely cook for a crowd anymore.
This is a nice, solid, reliable cooker. Presto does a good job on the owners manual, some basic recipes, etc. The cooker has a little rack so you can keep your meat off the floor of the cooker.
This is not a canner. You could (and I have) use it as a little baby canner for a small load of small jars. I have used it as a canner for about 4-5 pints. The instructions do not say this is a canner, and you probably should know what you're doing if you plan to can with this. It takes about the same amount of time whether you can in this or in the giant cooker, so why not do a large load, I say.
Pressure cooking doesn't necessarily save time depending on what you're cooking, when you consider it takes a while to build the pressure. This takes some practice, and knowing your food and your stove. I like it because it cooks meat really tender quicker than any other method.
It takes very little experience to get to know the proper pressure without a guage. It makes a rythmic rocking noise, not too fast,not too slow.
I find clean up a breeze. This baby is dishwasher safe. I soak it a couple minutes, if needed, then pop her in the DW. Take the rubber gasket off first. You should always hand wash the gasket.
