Pressure cookers have experienced renewed popularity over the last several years because cooks have rediscovered what some cooks (particularly grandmas) have known for a long time--they're really fast. And it's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. Presto's 4-quart aluminum pressure cooker is a multi-purpose pot that can stand in as a conventional soup pot as well as perform the kitchen magic that pressure cookers are famous for. Chicken Cacciatore cooks in 8 minutes! This durable, polished-aluminum pressure cooker is an economical addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools.
The heavy-duty lid locks down during cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. This pressure cooker is useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 65 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roast--even desserts like Oatmeal-Apple Crisp! Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork; or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture.
Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this polished aluminum pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The Presto 4-quart aluminum pressure cooker is fully immersible; in addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 9 inches in diameter (14 inches including handle) and 7 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for every kitchen!
If you don't have a pressure cooker and have been considering it, you really can't go wrong with this one. I own Presto brand aluminum pressure cookers in three different sizes, this 4 quart being my most recent purchase. The 4 qt. does not have the additional "lip" on the opposite side that the 6 qt does (which in my opinion makes it easier to handle) however it is a bit smaller so it's not that bad. Just be careful when lifting it into the sink to apply cold water before letting it cool down to open.This 4 qt size is perfect for a single person, or making small meals. I used it the day it arrived to cook chicken in. The chicken was cooked to perfection, and falling off the bone in just 25 minutes!If you haven't used a pressure cooker before, and this will be your first time, I offer the following tips: Get your food in, seal it up, and set it on the burner you want to use. Turn the burner up to high. It can take up to 15 minutes for the knob on top to start rocking. Once it does, turn down the heat about halfway. It may be a little noisy to some if you are standing right next to it, but it is nothing to be alarmed about. It's normal. Don't turn the heat down until after the knob starts rocking or you will either delay your cooking time or end up with less than tender meat. I didn't know this the first time I used one of these, and of course I was cooking a very thick roast. Still even with the "refire" a roast that would have taken several hours in the oven only took about 75 minutes to be perfectly done.My first purchase was of a 23 quart for canning/jarring. Second was of a 6 quart a year after which since I purchased I have used every single day. And most recently this 4 quart which I used the day it arrived, and will use several times a week undoubtedly.If you have a busy lifestyle like me you really cant live without these. They greatly reduce your cooking time while still producing a fabulous meal. I've always loved to cook, and really cant fathom why I didn't incorporate these into my life years ago. I've gotten rid of several of the pots I had prior to purchasing these because they double as pots too. I could truly get by with these, and just one square griddle. I wouldn't hesitate to buy more, and will likely replace the ones I have with the stainless steel versions at some point. I will say that the aluminum versions do tend to rub black all over you for several cleanings. Also they tend to stain a lot easier. While the stainless steel are double the price if you can afford it they are worth it. If you cant at least get the aluminum for the convenience, and just upgrade to the stainless steel when you are able to.In closing I recommend you stop thinking about it, and just get one. They aren't that expensive, and they pay for themselves quickly. Because of course time is money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Will Do In A Pinch
Didn't know what size to get but careful reading of instructions and what I make I determined this was the best size for me. Couldn't decide between a 4qt and a 6 qt. I wanted a 6 qt but Bolo forced you to buy Bolo Prime if you wanted the 6 qt and I didn't want that FORCED on me as I don't want Prime Membership right now and didn't want the hassle to quit later.But as it turned out the 4 qt is more than enough for one or two people or even if you have a small child. It's well and simply made and very cheap compared to others out there. Was not sure about the crude rocking cap but it works, is reliable and simple to see if the pressure is correct by it's gentle rocking.One decision to buy this was the gasket and other rubber seals are cheap to replace. The other one I looked at and really liked, the gasket and rubber replacements would cost me nearly $18 dollars a year to upkeep paying for another of their Pressure Cookers in only 3 YEARS!!The aluminum used is soft and scratches and stains easily and is not hardened i.e anodized. I wish it was but the cost would go higher too. But the manual gives a way to remove stains. Have not tried it as the light stains don't bother me. I also did NOT detect any aluminum taste with dishes that contain acidic ingredients. A well-known site tested for aluminum and said it leeches .0025 of aluminum, but said when you take an antacid, one tablet contains 250 mg of aluminum! Drinking from soda cans can give you 1 or 2 mg of it.If that still bothers you go get a stainless-steel one. But the shape changes compared to the aluminum one even though they have the same capacity. I think the SS model is flatter and not as tall.I bought it mostly to cook beans in it and it excels at that. I tried their bean recipe and it's good as any. Completely satisfied. I also use it to cook soups, stews and am still experimenting. I don't know which is better at the moment for doing the latter as I only had this for a few months. Whether traditional cooking, i.e. Crockpot (failed at beans unless you buy it canned) or traditional stove, coil or gas.I can't seem to get the full flavor nuances on the latter when using the Pressure Cooker, however, strangely, we did gobble up everything made by it. Cabbage in soup gets overcooked, though, as this is powerful and and has only one setting at 15 lbs. Perhaps delicate herbs and flavoring get smothered by the extreme pressure? Maybe not either, as I'm still experimenting in amounts and may take me a year or more to determine the truth, as I don't use fresh herbs and tend to customize my recipes on the fly.I might add, also, it has a strangely very comfortable handle.See you in one year. ;)
Excelente olla de presión!
Me gusto mucho esta compra; el tamaño es perfecto para mi marido y para mi; el material es fuerte y resistente.
So easy to use, every kitchen needs one!
I’ve had mine for more than a year. This brand, presto, is quickly becoming a favourite of mine. Their products are reliable and good quality. I foresee many more years of use of my pressure cooker. I cook lots of grains and meat with mine. Chicken has never been done so fast and so soft in my kitchen before. The only thing I might do differently if I had the choice to buy a pressure cooker again would be getting a stainless steel one by Presto as well. Aluminum was the obvious choice at the time money wise and to allow myself to learn how to use a pressure cooker before committing, but I definitely would recommend getting a stainless steel one instead if your wallet allows it.
Bestest!
Best cooker ever!
