MAGEFESA Star 10.6-Quart Pressure Cooker, Works on All Stovetops (Induction Compatible), Safety Lock & 8 PSI Cooking

I have purchased two of these. I uses them with oil and pressure cook chicken. They work very well.

Best bang for the buck in pressure cookers. I use their 12 quart in a commercial kitchen, and just purchased their 4 quart for home use. Straight-forward design makes for reliable operation. The ONLY downside to this simplicity is that you really need to CRANK DOWN that top lock for it to pressurize nice and tight.

The first times I used it, I did not tighten the knob hard enough, steam escaped and the pressure did not build up. Later on, I figured out that the knob has to be turned tight all the way, and it worked fine ever since then. It requires some force that I hope I will still have when I am 80. Other than that, I am quite happy with it.

La mejor!

Use only 6 times and the air is leaking due to the seal. Bought new seal and still the same problem. Never have problem with Preston. Don't ever buy this beautiful pressure cooker but not working. Water leaking out on the surface of top cook. Terrible oroduct

I picked this pressure cooker because it lis like the one my mom used when I was growing up in France many years ago. I saw many meals prepared in that pressure cooker and it lasted for many many years. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles but i didn't want them anyway because most of the time they end up breaking or just unnecessary. I wanted simple, easy and safe to use. I am definitely so happy with this pressure cooker. It is so sturdy, simple and it heats the food so fast. It is just what I wanted. so thank you for this quality product, it definitely is made with quality materials and very well made.

This is my second Magefesa. The first I purchased in 1991. I have never used it for canning. I own a large All American Canner for that. I teach food preservation, water bath and pressure canning, so I am familiar with a quality item. Frankly, my Magefesa is my personal cooking choice. The original was very secure and safe but was destroyed in a house fire in 2014 and I was advised that it's structural integrity may have been compromised so I bought a new one, which I received yesterday. I discovered this morning that the rim/clamp called the "orejones" is warped/ bent preventing the lid from sealing securely. This is a serious concern as pressure builds. Please inspect all ridges and sealing components carefully, as this superior item can prove disastrous if faulty. These Magefesas are constructed to withstand a great deal of pressure.

The performance of the product is first rate. I pressure-fried chicken that would have impressed the Colonel. The downside is in the shipping. The first one arrived with a broken handle. Warily, I didn’t ship it back until the replacement arrived. Guess what? Another broken handle. I just removed the remaining unbroken handle and used it on the first unit. Other reviewers have also mentioned broken handles. One suggestion for users of this pressure cooker is to make sure that the lid is properly seated before using. It is very easy to lock down a misaligned lid, causing the unit to fail to come up to pressure.

My trusted 9 Litre T-Fal pressure cooker finally failed me this Fall and when I went to buy it again I was sad to notice that the new models are no longer made in France like mine had been…now they’re all made in China. So the search for a new one was on! I’ve had Lagostina before too but the only model available is for 7L, which just doesn’t work for us, being a large family of 8. I came across this brand and found the reviews were great- it’s larger than my last one and it’s made in Spain. I’ve been using this every other day since I bought it and it’s just marvellous!! The meat is so tender; I’m able to cook my largest batches of stew and soup without having to use another stock pot!! But be warned…it’s very loud. I included a video because there was none available before I bought it and the first time I used it, I thought I had missed a step somewhere. It scares the beegeezus out of my dog but he loves the contents afterwards just like the rest of us. I’m in love with this thing! It’s a great investment and worth every penny!

La compre para cocinar rápidamente y vaya que cumple con su propósito principal, una muy buena marca para productos de cocina. Es la segunda ella de esa marca con la que contamos en casa y nos encanta.

We are very happy with item which we use to make soup mainly. Was very well packed and arrived in a reasonable time frame. our old unit of over 30 years is also back in use with new gasket. So can now do 2 batches at a time, Thank you Magefesa for such good production and Amazon for the marketing.

Great product and convenient size. For Ease Of Use and Consistent Results Nothing Beats a Magefesa Pressure Cooker. Would be better still, if a spare silicone gasket was supplied with pressure cooker.
