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.

This pressure cooker is gorgeous, looks like it'll last at least a couple of lifetimes, and is completely silent unlike the jiggle-top cooker it replaces. Amazon isn't giving these things away, but it's worth the money on esthetic and practical grounds.



Update two years on: As solid as these look, the plastic parts get brittle with repeated use, and will require replacement. Fissler commits to making parts available for ten years after the purchase date, so the expected lifetime of the cooker is probably not much more than that. I still like this, but I can't consider it a good value for money.

When you do need to buy replacement parts, I advise you to buy from fisslerstore in North Carolina - they are businesslike. The warranty agent in Los Angeles is unreliable.

This review is from: Fissler 021 674 10 000 Blue Point 10-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker (Kitchen)

I purchased a Fissler pressure cooker about twenty years ago. I use it daily. It is the only piece of kitchen cookware that has stood up to the many years of use. I will probably get another twenty years of service from it. I would recommend it to anyone who is not afraid that their cookware will outlive them. If it is used heavily the rubber gasket will need replacing ever two years or so. By the way the retail price has doubled in twenty years.

I have used this pot almost everyday since I bought it. I attended 2 classes on pressure cooking before I made the investment, so when it arrived I was ready to cook. This is essential in the South in the summer, you can have an entire oven dinner in less than half the time and your kitchen doesn't have to heat up. I love it!!!!
