PrestigeDeluxe Stainless Steel Deep Pressure Pan 5 liters

This might seem expensive but is so worth it!

Great purchase. No regrets and it arrived super quick too. Love it.

My two other pressure cookers are cylindrical and accommodate stacked inserts (so I can use them to pressure-cook several items at a time). This pressure cooker is a pressure pan, not designed for stacked inserts. I knew this when I bought it so I was not disappointed, although like other reviewers, I found this pressure pan somewhat smaller than expected. But it's a great size for about 2-3 cups (uncooked) of most dals. I like that you can prepare your sauces or spice base, add the uncooked lentils and water, and cook the whole thing directly in the pot. It also comes to full pressure very, very quickly. Overall very sturdy and cleans nicely in my dishwasher.

Smaller that I expected, they measure the volume including the amount taken up by the lid when closed. so much smaller than expected.

It was given to someone as a gift so we found about the damage after the 30 days return window. So now we are stuck with a broken piece of pressure cooker. It was a waste of money. I love prestige pressure cookers and I have a similar one in great working condition. However this product we bought for a friend did not meet the expectations.
