Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Fagor 12-Piece Pressure Cooker and Canner Set

Customer Review: DON'T BELIEVE ERRONEOUS REVIEWS
Summary: 4 Stars

AFTER DOING A BIT OF RESEARCH I WENT AHEAD AND ORDERED THIS SET DESPITE THE 3 TERRIBLE REVIEWS. I'VE DECIDED 3 REVIEWS AREN'T ENOUGH DATA TO MAKE A JUDGEMENT. I WILL ALWAYS READ REVIEWS...BUT ALSO INVESTIGATE MYSELF AND THEN DECIDE.

FIRST, THOUGH ONE REVIEWER CALLS HIMSELF "DR.", HIS INFORMATION IS INCORRECT. HE SAYS IT IS NOT STAINLESS STEEL, BUT IT DEFINITELY IS 18/10 STAINLESS STEEL. STAINLESS STEELS ARE MADE OF VARYING ALLOYS AND HIS MAGNET TEST IS SIMPLY NOT A VALID TEST...SOME ALLOYS ARE MAGNETIC AND SOME ARE NOT. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT COOKING ACIDIC FOODS IN THIS COOKER.

SECONDLY, ANOTHER REVIEWER STATES THAT THEY ARE UPSET ABOUT THE "COOK'S ESSENTIALS" RATHER THAN "FAGOR" LABELING. THIS COOKER IS MADE BY FAGOR AND THOUGH IT IS NOT THE VERY BEST PRESSURE COOKER SOLD...[SOME ARE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS]...IT IS MADE TO FAGOR'S SAFETY STANDARDS...I GUARANTEE THAT LIFTING THIS LARGE COOKER WITH A FULL BATCH OF FOOD WITHIN WILL REQUIRE TWO HANDS...IT IS NOT A "LIGHT WEIGHT" OR POORLY CONSTRUCTED.

IF YOU ARE WORRIED SOMEONE IS GOING TO INSPECT YOUR PRESSURE COOKER AND DETERMINE THAT "HORRORS! IT'S COOK'S ESSENTIALS!"...THEN YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT THINGS THAT MATTER VERY LITTLE TO ME...BUT I DO THINK AMAZON SHOULD USE "COOK'S ESSENTIALS BY FAGOR" TO DESIGNATE THE COOKER...NOT JUST IMPLY IT'S A FAGOR IN DESCRIPTIONS.

AS FOR THE CANNING MATERIALS INCLUDED...THEY ARE THE SAME AS A SET OFFERED BY FAGOR. IF YOU ARE A SUPER CANNER YOU SHOULD GET ONE OF THE HUGE CANNING COOKERS SOLD AT AMAZON.

THIS PRESSURE COOKER SET FOR UNDER 30 DOLLARS IS A BARGAIN AND IS PROBABLY ONLY MARKED DOWN BECAUSE OF AN ERRONEOUS REVIEW. PRESSURE COOKER MEALS CAN BE SO DELICIOUS...CLEAN UP IS OFTEN EASIER...AND COOKING FOODS IN PRESSURE COOKERS VIRTUALLY ELIMINATES THE POSSIBILITY OF FOOD POISONING IN THESE DAYS WHEN WE HEAR OF FOOD RECALLS ALMOST DAILY.

I HOPE THIS REVIEW HELPS YOU.
