not thrilled Jan 06, 2009 Sent it back before I used it. Did not like the seal. Too easy to lose. Too maintenance needy. I like my previous pressure cooker. I am a low maintenance person.
fagor splendid Dec 30, 2008 I haven't owned a pressure cooker for more than 15 years. I decided to purchase a Fagor after reading many positive reviews. I was not disappointed! I like the ease and the safety features of this model, much better than the older 1970 pressure cooker. The Fagor heats very evenly and quickly. It appears very durable and well balanced. I would certainly buy another fagor.

Not what I am used to Dec 02, 2008 I am used to a pressure cooker that I could hear the regulator rocking from the pressure to let me know that it is cooking correctly; therefore, I scorched and overcooked food because I was expecting to hear the regulator. If that part wouldn't bother you, it would probably be fine. I am sending mine back.

Made in china Nov 24, 2008 First I guess my biggest dsappointment was that this item is made in China. I am trying to avoid items made in China. Fagor advertises their
product is European made in Spain. Secondly the instrucitons say to put olive oil on the seal. Well the day I put olive oil on the seal it burnt
so I need to replace it after only 5 uses. I am still debating whether
it is worth the extra money to constantly replace seals. Maybe I will just use it as a sauce pan for I do have a lid that fits. Haven't decided yet. Money is tight. Otherwise it did cook the items fast
but don't think it is worth the extra money to replace seals all the time.

Fagor vs Presto Jul 24, 2008 I have a Presto 4 qt. pressure cooker which I like a lot, but wanted something bigger so I bought the Fagor 6 qt. The inside diameter of the Fagor is 8 3/4" vs 8 3/8" for the Presto, 3/8" difference which may not seem like much, but I cook mostly with stainless steel inserts, bowls and the like, to get the double boiler effect, and it's easier to get the bowls out of the Fagor, a tricky job when they are still hot. But the Fagor makes a hissing sound at a pitch I didn't like at all. So I went back to the Presto which makes a nice chuga-chuga sound with the little cap rocking back and forth, a sound I actually find pleasing (I'm a violinmaker, so sound matters to me). But then I found an old aluminum cooker at Goodwill, which I scavenged for the vent tube and cap, and installed it on the Fagor. Voila! A Fagor-Presto. It has the size I like and now the sound also. If you're not handy like that, I would go with the 6 qt. Presto, nice simple design, and that comforting sound heralding a good meal.
