 Best addition to the kitchen since my wife November 3, 2008
Walter J. Eichler (Clintondale, NY)
I have been using this almost every day since I received it. My wife and I have made some great food, enjoyed many leftovers and have begun to lose a little weight.
We have made stews, soups, Coq Au Vin, Citrus Chicken, custard, and bread pudding. Plus a couple of home made shots in the dark and all of them have been delicious, and not a preservative in the lot.
The prep time takes longer than the cooking, so I finally dug out the food processor again, that shortened up the prep time. Now things will flow more quickly.
I bought the dessert setup by Fagor, it works, but not well. The silicone baking dish and cover is so flimsy they do not mate. This was quite a disappointment, but I'll find a better dish for the desserts.
All in all a great purchase so far and I look forward to using it for many years.
Great for cooking not so good for canning October 30, 2008
D. Sharples (Surrey, BC Canada)
Loved the way it cooks but for canning people should be aware. Since this has a low pressure for 8 lb and high for 15 lb everything must be done at 15 lb. Great if you are at very high altitude but if your at low altitude you will be over processing everything you can. For beginner canners please buy a Ball Blue Book of Preserving so you know what to do and what not to do before forging on with canning. The manual and cookbook is lovely but the canning recipes and also the instructions are vage. For one thing you have to vent a canner before canning not like in cooking. No where in the book tells you this so unless this product is different you could end up with safty problems with your canned goods.
Fagor 12 piece pressure cooker and canner set October 22, 2008
slimpat (Grand Blanc, MI USA)
Got this P C and dearly love it is nice and large for the big things and you can also can in it. I have not canned as I got it too late in the season but plan to use it when I make soups and stews. I have heard only good things about this P C on a PC group I am on and everybody loves it. I have used it to make several large meals and everything turns out great. You can not go wrong with this PC I have waited for it to go on sale and it finally did.

Great duel purpose product, for small amounts of canning and large amounts of pressure cooking. Fagor always makes a quality product.
great for my glass top stove September 28, 2008
E. Deaton (Ohio - USA)
I can some of my faviorite foods. My new glass top stove would not stand up to the weight of my old 16qt pressure cooker. I did some reaserch and purchased this product last year. Easy to use as a canner or a cooker. Processes up to 4 jars at once. This is a great purchase for a first time canner or new homemaker. I use my cooker about 2 to 3 times a week just for cooking. Foods taste so much better. I enjoy mine so much that I am buying two more to give as gifts.
If you don't have a big freezer, canning is the way to go. You need a pressure cooker to can any low acid foods such as meat. I can my own
spaghetti sauce with meatballs, vegetable soup, tomatoe juice, chicken, beef and more.
With my old canner, was hard to find replacent parts. When I made this purchase, I ordered 2 extra sealing rings and 1 extra lid.
