Summary: nice product
Comment: nice product because i can use it to pressure cook my half pint jars of jelly i make from my apple tree. I can also use it to cook other types of meat and come out nice and tender. The clean up is a breese no sticking to the pan and basket.

Summary: The box said Fagor but not the cooker
Comment: I ordered the Fagor Professional Duo 10-qt. Pressure Cooker and Canner and was really looking forward to getting it as it had stellar reviews. The box was for exactly what I ordered but lurking inside was a Chinese made Kitchen Essentials cooker with a non-stick surface. I notified Amazon of this anomaly and they happily exchanged the product for a true Fagor product. Alas, the same thing happened the second time. I won't use non-stick and returned the second cooker too. I suppose Amazon cannot be faulted if Fagor is hiding inferior products in their boxes but it would have saved everyone a lot of grief if someone at the warehouse could have looked inside to see if the Fagor box contained an actual Fagor cooker or an imposter. I still would like to receive what I ordered but am afraid the result would be similar.

Summary: Product has packaging problem
Comment: The first order was as a Christmad gift for my son. when opening the package he found the pressure cooker had a broken handle. I had that one replaced and a second one shipped to him. Upon opening the package this one had a broken handle as well. Obviously there is a fundamental problem with the packaging.

Summary: Teflon version delivered in stainless steel packaging, TWICE!
Comment: I ordered the stainless steel 10q pressure cooker. The Teflon design, which sells for less, was delivered in the packaging made for the stainless steel design. When I had Amazon replace the pressure cooker, they sent another Teflon design in the stainless steel packaging. Apparently, Fagor has packaged its cheaper design in packaging designed for the more expensive version.

Summary: Great for cooking & canning
Comment: I'd been looking to do some canning and got this as a gift...
PROS
It's easy to use with a simple pressure indicator and lid lock.
The nonstick surface inside has been a cinch to clean after cooking!
I've canned quart jars, although I'm not sure if quarts are "recommended"
CONS
The handle on the main pot is only attached with one screw...no matter how much I tighten the screw down, it seems as though the handle comes slightly loose when dumping an entire pot of liquid (like after canning). This hasn't affected the functionality of the pot, but it did scare me the first time I tried to dump the water out (the pot is very heavy when filled, and although the handle only gave slightly, it still was an "oh!" moment!)
All in all, a very good product, and the included cookbook gives you a nice start on some basic recipes for the pot.
