- How does the spring valve differ from a weighted pressure cooker?
- It holds a steady pressure with a spring-loaded valve instead of a rattling weight, and you release steam in controlled stages. That makes it quieter and easier to judge, but you rely on the indicator rather than sound.
- Is 7.0 L too big for two people?
- It is generous for two. It makes sense if you cook once and eat for days, make stock or preserve; otherwise a smaller Duromatic is easier to handle.
- Does it work on induction hobs?
- Yes. The stainless base is induction-compatible and also works on gas, electric and ceramic hobs.
- What is in the box?
- The cooker, its locking lid and a trivet or steamer insert depending on the set, plus an instruction booklet. Check the listing for the exact accessories included.
- Can I get replacement parts?
- Yes. Kuhn Rikon sells replacement seals, valves and handles for the Duromatic line, which is a large part of its long-term appeal.
- Is it dishwasher safe?
- The body and lid are best hand washed to protect the finish and the valve. The seal and valve parts should be cleaned by hand.
