Great product, but I bought this for pearl barley, beans and pulses, and for those who may wish to know, there are some things that actually cannot be cooked in the duromatic - barley included :-(the manual (2012) p56, states that you cannot cook:-'apple compote, cranberries, porridge (oat flakes), barley or other cereals (other than those listed on p73), peas, pasta, macaroni or rhubarb' as they all foam too much and could block the valve.the cereals that you can cook in this are:- (p73 of manual 2012)rice (parboiled), rice (risotto), rice pudding, brown rice soaked, brown rice unsoaked,brown rice (parboiled), wild rice (soaked), wild rice (unsoaked), semolina, corn meal fine (polenta),

I decided to buy this because I cook a lot of stews with cheaper cuts of meat (beef feet, oxtail, goat etc). The cooking time is greatly reduced. What used to take 3 hours can now be ready in 20-40 minutes. Incredible. As other reviewers have mentioned there is no scary hissing noise. The handles are ideal because you don't need to worry about long handles taking up room. The design is sleek with no extra grooves and fiddly bits to clean. I find it a good weight. It would be described as a heavy bottomed pan. With a slick of oil it is almost non-stick. My only quibble is the aluminium base doesn't extend to the edge of the pan. This means you do have to be careful that your flame isn't licking beyond it otherwise the stainless steel will discolour.

I am new to pressure cookers, but I figured that once I bought one, I would have it for many years to come, so I decided to go for a good one. And this is a good one.I've made a few meals now and it does a very good job for recipes that normally take a long cooking time such as stews and curries. You need to add some of your ingredients in a slightly different order, such as adding thickening agent at the end of the cook, You also absolutely can't 'look in' to see how your recipe is going. But after reading a few recipes in a pressure cooker recipe book that I got at the same time, you get the idea of how you do things. I also saw some YouTube videos which gave me a steer of how you go about cooking with it.I am happy with my purchase and,

I haven't had a pressure cooker since the days of the super-heavy long handled ones with gaskets that quickly didn't fit and lots of scary hissing. But watching Heston got me interested in having one again. This pressure cooker is great!!! It's light and astonishingly easy to use. At first I was worried that the instructions were too brief (they are, scarily so, and no recipes) but in fact that's because it really is very simple to use with a very effective valve which registers pressure clearly and responds quickly when you lower the heat.Whilst it is a big investment I am really pleased with the quality of the materials and with the design - from small things like sensible handle design which

I bought this after being introduced to the Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker at a cooking class. It was a little tricky to get the hang of using at first but there is a great help line for Kuhn Rikon and they talked me through how to use it. At first I was using a heat diffuser, as advised by the cooking school but this meant it took longer to build pressure and as long as you use it on an appropriate sized ring on the gas hob, there should be no discolouration of the sides. It has been easy to clean. The pot itself is very solid and substantial and I can also use it for other things - I bought a clear glass lid for that purpose.

Never had a pressure cooker before as was scared of them due to an incident when I was young. I do alot of cooking and wanted to start eating more pulses but they just take too long to cook. Friend recommended buying a pressure cooker which she uses all the time. I was coverted especially after reading a review online about second generation pressure cookers which are 100% safe. I decided to go for the best and purchased Kuhn Rikon Duromatic pressure cooker. Now eating more pulses which taste much better than tinned products. Also I like the fact that meat dishes only take a fraction of the time to prepare and still taste good. The Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker is very well made, high quality product.

I was unsure about whether or not to go for a pricey one or if they were all the same and I would just be wasting my money. I came to the conclusion it was a tool and I've never regretted spending a bit more on spanners and sockets and the like. Nothing worse than cheap tools, especially when quality ones often make the job a pleasure to do.My thinking has proved sound. It's a pleasure to use and the mechanic in me can see that it's perfectly safe. Quite cleverly so, actually.As far as pressure cooking in general goes, I can't believe I've left it this long to get one. It's so quick and uses so little gas. I may buy another one of a different design to expand my options.

This is a good family sized pot. I can easily batch cook for the week - and also make supper quickly!! I really like that cooking times are much reduced - beef stewing cuts takes 10-15 minutes to become tender as apposed to 2 hours! We use it a lot for currys and stews and with the nights drawing in thats happening more and more. It seems to take a bit longer to get to pressure than my old tefal but no complaints so far. It came with a small tray - not quite a trivet - that rests on the bottom not used yet. Kuron have an app that gives recipe suggestions and timings. It hs uickly become a staple tool in the kitchen - as trustworthy as the 20 yr old le creuset pots its sits next too.

I LOVE my new kuhn rikon pressure cooker, looks sleek, beautiful and makes my kitchen look like a professionals. Made some amazing beef and lamb dishes which were oh so tender and this really feels safe. I have used instant pot before and they are hard to clean and bulky. I prefer using this as you have the safety feature and can put it away after. However, I've noticed the base is not so clean after scrubbing with a green sponge, apparently cannot use metal scourer so what do I do to clean the base? I'm kinda disappointed the base isn't just stainless steel that you can use a scourer with....that part was a little misleading.

I was considering buying an instant pot (one of those electronic slow cookers) but in the end went for this as it had an epic guarantee on it. It's built like a tank. So many easy meals. Just throw everything in, close the lid and get an amazing soup, stock or stew. Mashed potato is fantastic (fast, no lumps when you mash it). I did a mushroom soup yesterday by just throwing in mushrooms, onions and garlic, pressure cooking for 20 minutes and then using a stick blender. Another family favourite is chicken soup, where you just throw in chicken and whatever vegetables you've got.This is my favourite kitchen implement. I love it.

I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to spend so much money on a pressure cooker, but I was swayed by the reviews and I'm glad that I did. My memories from childhood are of a terrifying contraption that hissed violently and was always on the verge of exploding.This pot is really simple to use and depressurises with a simple pressure of the button on top. I have used it loads since I purchased it. I find that dishes that I used to have to plan to make because they took so long, such as curries, can now be popped on to cook when I take the kids upstairs for their bath and milk and are ready when I have finished!

This is my latest and probably last pressure cooker. I have cooked with these for about 50 years and this has been the easiest and best. My own is now ten years old and looks as good as new. I have just bought one for my daughter as a special present and she too is thrilled with it. THE original method of ‘healthy’ cooking, it cannot be beaten. They no longer come with an inner basket (I use an old one) but you can use the basket to put different veg to cook on top of the lower ones and all the veg be done at once. Good fifty years ago, perfect for BIG healthy family dinners in this latest century.

Had this pressure cooker for a week now and just love it. So easy to use, just turn the lid and go. Takes a few uses to work out how to maintain the pressure but its all part of the fun of getting to know the cooker.I remember my mum's cooker used to rattle and hiss, this is so calm I wonder if anything much can be happening. I am completely new to pressure cooking and after research decided to invest in a Kuhn Rikon model as these come with some great reviews. I am so pleased with my choice.My beans which used to take hours to cook were done in ten minutes - heaven!

Been using this pressure cooker for a month now and it's my favourite toy in the kitchen so far! Casseroles, ham, chicken - you name it - all come out succulent and tender. I never had such outstanding results using any other cooking pots. It saves time enormously, especially you feel it when you get home from work and cannot be bothered about some complicated meal, cannot face takeaways and want just some homemade, healthy, hearty meal. Taking into consideration that it also saves me a little fortune on electicity bills it's no wonder I love my new shiny Kuhn Rikon?

This is an excellent product. Like many others I was initially scared; my mother covered the ceiling with boiling rice in my early youth. But this is easy to use and safe to operate.Be careful about the capacity you need. I have a 6 litre one. But you can only use these things 2/3 full so that's 4 litres. I use it almost exclusively for making stock so that 4 litres yields about 2 litres; less if you're going to use ice filtration (thanks Heston). So making 4 litres of stock takes two batches which overall, seems to go on forever. Maybe I'll get another.
