Holds nicely at 15lbs of pressure and have a heavy bottom so easier to brown meats before pressure. It steams continually which was different from an instant pot so the first time I used it I thought the seal was broken. It’s become my favorite pot for sauces and Indian curries.

Just make sure you turn the heat down once the pressure has been reached or you will burn the tar out of your food. This cooker is worth it. But monitor your heat so you don't burn dinner. I don't recommend this cooker if you dont' do well under pressure. But, you know what they say. If you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen.Great product in my opinion. But who am I? Hells kitchen?

As a huge fan of Fagor pressure cookers, I was relieved to find that Zavor had risen as the replacement brand. However, my experience this cooker has been abysmal.The cooker would not hold pressure when it first arrived. When I contacted Zavor about it, they ran me through a rather infuriating step by step process before they finally, and seemingly grudgingly, made me ship it back to them, where they took a week to fix it, and then shipped it back. All during this time, no offer was made to simply replace the cooker. Or at the very least, the lid.Upon its return, while it does EVENTUALLY hold pressure, it requires such a high heat that everything inside burns. I've tried using extra water and meticulously un-lidding and stirring repeatedly (losing pressure in the process) while it's coming to pressure at high heat, in an attempt to keep dinner from burning.And as a final straw, the pressure control dial is completely flakey. It gets clogged with steam, making it seem like nothing is happening, until it's manually jiggled and then it spits out a burst of hot water and steam, and returns to 'normal' operation. It means I can't ever trust that the sound coming from the cooker is relevant to what is happening inside. This is even after thorough cleaning as recommended to me by Zavor.

We have selected the 4.2 Quart size for our small household. The pressure cooker is robust, easy to use and clean, and works reliably.

This was a good size for me. This is a good size to do a pot roast in. I have only used it once for vegetables but it was wonderful compared to a pressure cooker that was about 25 years old. This uses less water to cook with and everything is built into the handle. The pressure release is easy to use, just make sure the release valve is pointing away from you so as not to get burned. This one is rated for induction tops which I have. Very easy to clean after use. The quality of the Zavor is quite good as well. Completely satisfied with this purchase.

Terrific little pressure cooker. I own the ten quart version of this cooker, and wanted something that holds less than a vat of food, for days when only two of us are at home. So, after much pondering, I bought the 4 quart pot. It makes enough soup for three people to eat a hearty meal, with a little left over. It's also a great pot without the lid. The size is so convenient, and it fits the burners on my glass top stove exactly.If I had a complaint, it would be that the handle drips water occasionally. I think I have the gasket slightly misplaced, because it doesn't happen all the time or even most of the time. When I get that figured out, this will be perfect.
