Fagor Splendid 2-in-1 Pressure Cooker 5 Piece Set

The rapid results produced by pressure cookers make them a favorite among time-pressed cooks. The Fagor Splendid 2-in-1 Pressure Cooker 5-Piece Set includes four- and six-quart pots (one deep and one shallow), a pressure cooker lid that fits both pots, a tempered-glass lid that fits both pots, a steamer basket with trivet, and a recipe book. It offers features such as a visual pressure indicator, an automatic pressure release (which allows you to release pressure without running the device under cold water), and a triple-lock safety system that prevents burns.

The pots are constructed of durable 18/10 stainless steel with aluminum-clad bottoms for superior heat conduction. Just seal the food and liquids with the pressure cooker lid, then place the pressure cooker on a stove burner. The unit will bring the internal temperature up to 250 degrees, building up pressurized steam that begins to quickly break down the fibers in the food. This method preserves the food's inherent vitamins and minerals while keeping it juicy and delicious.

Dual pressure settings on the pressure cooker handle - one in a dial control and another on a valve - provide added safety. Other safety features include two pressure-release valves and a locking handle. A visual indicator pops up or retracts to indicate the pressure level in the cooker.

You may also use the pots for traditional stovetop cooking. The glass lid fits tightly over the pot rims to trap moisture and allows you to monitor the food's progress. The stainless steel gourmet steamer basket holds vegetables over steaming water or serves as a colander insert for pasta.

Designed in Spain, manufactured in China. UL-approved. This set is easy to clean and dishwasher-safe. Includes instruction manual, recipe book, and 10-year warranty. Pots are each nine inches in diameter and weigh 7.5 lbs (four qt.) and 8.25 lbs (six qt.).
