Fissler Vitavit Premium Pressure Cooker with Insert / 22cm

This German-made stainless steel pressure cooker cuts energy use in half and cooking time up to 70%. It is easy to use, with standout features such as a bumpy cooking surface for better browning, a traffic light–style pressure indicator, and three settings (high pressure, low pressure, steam).

---DETAILS--- Fissler, established in 1845, is a trusted German company known around the world for high-quality cookware. Their Vitavit Premium Pressure Cooker, made from 18/10 stainless steel that’s suitable for all hobs including induction, compresses steam to cook food 70% faster than a standard pot—stews, potatoes, curries, pulses, and a myriad of other foods are ready in 1/3 of their standard cooking times. The base of the pot features a Novogrill® cooking surface for excellent browning. Pressure levels can be gauged with a large indicator that signals yellow (coming up to temperature), green (pressure cooking in progress), and red (heat must be turned down). It has a high and low pressure setting, as well as a non-pressure steam setting and steamer insert, expanding its usefulness. The handle twists off easily with the press of a button; when securely locked, an indicator shows green. When the lid is securely shut and pressure has built, that same button acts as a steam releaser for when you want to quick-release pressure. It is designed to vent steam away from you—one of its many safety features, which also include primary and secondary pressure relief valves and a safety gasket. The handles and pressurised components are easily removable, so you can clean each part thoroughly.

---BENEFITS--- 'Fissler pressure cookers are as simple and intuitive as electric versions. They are also 25% faster and brown ingredients more thoroughly, due to higher pressure and closer contact with the heat source. They are more durable, since replacing parts is easy, and cupboard friendly, as the pot can be stacked with others.'
