Our take on the Presto 6 Quart Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker

This is a stovetop pressure cooker, not an electric one. It is a 6-quart stainless steel pot with a tri-clad base (stainless, aluminum, stainless) that works on gas, electric, smooth-top and induction ranges. It cooks 3 to 10 times faster than ordinary methods and tenderizes lean cuts of meat. It suits cooks who want fast braises, beans and stews without giving up counter space to a plug-in appliance. Against electric multi-cookers it is simpler and more durable, but it has no timer, no preset programs and no keep-warm. Owners rate it 4.6 out of 5 across 1,124 ratings.
