Which brand is better, Kuhn Rikon or Fissler Pressure Cooker?

Through research it is my understanding that the Kuhn Rikon is the very best available. However, I did not even consider the Fissler brand so I can't honestly answer your question other than to say I am more than pleased with the Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker. It is beautiful to look at,easy to use and works perfectly every time!

I don't know about Fissler, but when I was planning on purchasing the Kuhn Rikon, it would be my first pressure cooker as I was always afraid of them. I can tell you that I did a ton of research over the course of a few months before deciding on this product. With nothing to compare it to, I will tell you my experience with it: 1. It is a stunningly handsome piece and quite sturdy. 2. It is very easy to clean. There has been no scrubbing needed to date. I just do a hot-water soak and clean with a regular non-scratch sponge. 3. The pressure valve is extremely easy to understand and use. There are 2 lines which are like "low" & "high" settings. Pressure builds up inside, which pushes the valve up to reveal the first line. If this is the setting you desire, you'd adjust flame to keep it there at this point. If you want more pressure, don't adjust the flame yet and the pressure will continue to push the valve up, revealing the second red line. Then, you adjust the flame to keep it there. If there is too much pressure building still, the pressure/steam will release automatically. When you want to release pressure manually, grasp the valve, lift slightly, and pivot the valve 90 degrees. Steam will escape at the valve so be careful. 4. I have a KR garlic press and a KR side-opening can-opener as well and love them both. They're nicely balanced, feel great in the hand, and work much better than any other garlic presses and can openers I've used before. TL;DR I don't know about Fissler, but every Kuhn Rikon product I own has blown me away so I'm a big fan.

It is made in China, but Kuhn Rikon is a Swiss company who is very particular about quality so you can be sure it's made to their high standards. This garlic press is really about the best out there from what I know and have read.

I'm sorry I do not know, the only pressure cooker I have is the Instant Pot.

My Fagor stainless pressure cooker set works not only exceptionally well on inductive coil stoves, but I went ahead and purchased an inexpensive inductive free standing "hot plate" style unit for the plate's timer portion for turning the coil on and off. It is the fastest water boil I have ever had!

I did some research to this question,(as I am not familiar with induction cook stoves).What I read is that Kuhn Rikoncan be used on any type of stove,as it is stainless steel and the bottom has an aluminum core,sandwiched between stainless steel.Hope this helps your decision,this pressure cooker is truly the Rolls Royce of cookers! great product!

Kuhn Rikon DESIGNS products in Switzerland. The only make some products in Switzerland, and they tend to be very expensive. This product is made in China.

I doubt it. I could not even get ahold of the company regarding my warranty (it quit after three months use) using the number on the warranty card. If you have not purchased this yet, I would seriously encourage you to get a different model. I purchased the Elite pressure cooker from HSN. I have had it for over a year with no problems and love it. Hope this helps you.

My favorite PC cookbook is the Great Big Pressure Cooker Book by Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough. They tested all the recipes on this model, so I recommend it as there is some variance in cooking time.

I would buy the exact same pressure cooker that I have which is the Kuhn Rikon 3342 5 1/4 Quart. Just used it yesterday to make a boneless leg of lamb and it came out great. This pressure cooker has been performing consistently for the 1+ year that I've had it.

I am not sure whether you ask about the product in amazon or in general. In prestige model though, we have a 10-litre and that's the max i guess. Please visit http://prestigesmartkitchen.com/home/search?q=pressure+cooker

Yes it does cook at two different pressure settings. 15psi and if I remember correctly 10psi. The book does an excellent job of explaining settings and has good recipes. I love this Kuhn Rikon and recommend it without hesitation.

I am not aware of any recalls. The company website is www.fissler.com and has quite a bit of information. I used mine last week for the first time and it worked really well. It was much quicker than my old pressure cooker from the 90's. I would suggest reviewing the you tube videos as how to use as this was beneficial to me in addition to reading the instructions.

Hello I have a Viking Residential/Commerical gas stove, it worked extremely well. That was my first time using a pressure cooker. I would strongly recommend purchasing this canner.
