Product Description

Fissler Blue Point pressure cookers combine healthy nutrition with gentle cooking, since atmospheric oxygen is expelled and the cooking periods are quite short. Vitamins and minerals, as well as nutrients and flavor, are thus preserved. You can see and taste the difference. With Blue Point, you save up to 70% of the regular cooking time and as much as 50% of the energy traditionally used in cooking. Blue Point pressure cookers have two pressure levels, a gentle pressure level for cooking delicate food like vegetables and fish without destroying nutrients, and a speed pressure level for cooking meats and stews quickly. Blue Point pressure cookers are very unique in that they are completely silent. There is no unnerving rattling or hissing while pressure is inside. Once the oxygen is expelled and the valve locks into place, hardly any steam escapes into the air during the cooking process keeping the kitchen cooler. Because there is no steam, there are no cooking odors. Blue Point pressure cookers exceed the minimum safety requirements of Europe and the United States with patented innovative features such as the Euromatic safety valve, residual pressure block, interlocking lid, and automatic steam release. The CookStar all-stove base, comprised of a pure aluminum core and high-quality 18/10 stainless steel, ensures that the base that will never separate or warp. The energy-saving base also provides quick optimal heat distribution, diffusion, and storage without any hot spots. Safe for use on induction stoves and in the dishwasher. Limited lifetime warranty. Made in Germany.

I have to highly recommend this Fissler pressure cooker. This was my very first pressure cooker, I followed the manual washed it well and did the first run with the water and lemon juice, then fixed beans. Being a little afraid of pressure cooker stories, I didn't cook it as long as I should have. This has so many SAFETY features, it just doesn't seem like you could go wrong, unless you do wrong on purpose. Needless to say in 40 min's the pinto beans were about 88% cooked and I was very impressed. I'm making Garbanzo beans right now. It is so silent! So completely intact, and only takes a couple minutes to reach the second white band on the rod, then just lower the heat to keep it steady and set the timer and off you go to do something else! I love my Fissler Pressure Cooker, I truly believe it was worth EVERY PENNY it cost me. I'll be using this for years! Thank-You Fissler!!! For making pressure cooking a joy!

I have had a pressure cooker from Fissler for several years now. It is a great piece of kitchen equipment. Cuts cooking time in half and really brings out the flavor in food. I recommend not only this product, but any product made by Fissler.

This is the best pressure cooker I have ever owned. It is made with quality materials and so easy to use. It is virtually silent and no jiggling noises like the old ones. This is an item to pass on to the next generation. I would purchase other products from this company. Highly recommend.
