Personally I’m still a fan of my old Tefal classic. It’s made in France not China, has lasted me many years, is easy and safe to use and get the job done for around $100.

Dennie- I found this on Amazon. Looks very much like Fagor……
Zavor ZPot 10 Quart 15-PSI Pressure Cooker and Canner – Polished Stainless Steel (ZCWSP03)
by ZAVOR
We have fissler blue dream almost 30 years, fissler is always gonna be a lifetime choice.
"in 2019, this list helped me decide for the best pressure cooker scafe.shop/pc2019?7e hope it helps you out too!"
The Amazon links do not go to the winners announced in the video.
From an email I received today from America’s Test Kitchen:
Our former Best Buy stovetop pressure cooker, the Fagor Duo, was discontinued when the Spanish manufacturer went out of business. However, the U.S. branch became a separate company called Zavor and is producing the same cooker. We purchased it and put it through its paces, using all the same tests. The new pot has minor improvements: The settings, handle lock, maximum fill line, and the spot where you align lid and pot to seal the cooker are all more clearly marked. Its cooking surface is slightly narrower and it didn’t reach as high a temperature as the previous model, but we had no difficulty with cooking and browning food. The rebranded model by Zavor is our new Best Buy. We recommend following the manual’s instruction to put vegetable oil on the gasket, which makes it easier to get a tight seal under pressure and to help the lid slide smoothly.

Could you do best pressure canner?
Great review, love your professionalism, it is such a contrast to the majority of reviews. I tok your advice on buyint the Fissler. Thank you very much
Excellent presentation & very informative video Lisa. Thanks!
Why on a pressure cooker is a disk bottom desirable, but not quite good enough when it comes to other pots and pans? I’m not being a smart ass. I have upgraded many of my decent disk bottom pots and pans to all clad and really notice a difference. I just mean is scorching on the sides of the pressure cooker just not an issue or are fully clad pressure cookers just not a thing?
Where can I purchase the fagor duo 8qt.? Please send a link.
The vitaquick manufactured for the US market have a max operating pressure much lower than those offered to the European market. I recently purchased one and it states the the cooking pressure at the 'second line' is 60kpa (8.7psi) with a boiling point of 237f. I'm very disappointed. The product tested in this video is definitely one made for the European market.

Be Aware – Fagor has gone out of business and finding parts is difficult, if not impossible. I bought a Fagor Duo based on this review. The lower plastic handle broke. I can’t find the part anywhere. So now my pressure cooker is useless. If you own one get extra gaskets while you can…Don’t buy Fagor no matter how cheap the price on EBay!
I"ve seen just as many fat women with tight belts. Why did you choose to pick on men?
Nice, I learn a lot to with your test.
The Best Buy Fagor 8qt is now a "fat guy with a belt" design. Also, the link to the best buy is now the Presto 8-qt, not Fagor.
I decided to go even bigger and get a 10.4 qt from fissler since I always cook in larger quantities. Excited to use it!
I found the best deal to order it was through bed bath & beyond if you use the 20% off coupon that occasionally comes in the mail. I was able to save almost $50. And they had the 10.4 qt for $250.
I could not understand the brand names she said at the end for the top one and two. Would someone clarify for me? Thanks
The link for the best buy is different than the one you recommend in the video.
ATK, for most things, is very knowledgeable about the content they present and the products they recommend.
However, I am retired and spend a lot of time with a friend that has a small appliance repair shop. We also take dead appliance drop-offs and appliances we find at yard sells, flea markets, etc.
Where ATK fails, in some cases, is the quality and durability of appliances. Sure, the appliance did well during their testing phase but how does that appliance perform after months of work?
A great example is Kitchenaid stand mixers. One was their top choice. One model even broke during their testing. Kitchenaid gears are terrible quality, even their all metal gears. Their worm drives will not last if put used under frequent or high stress. We have so many dead Kitchenaid stand mixers in the shop that we cannot take any more (fire code prevents storage stacking).
When we see someone get out of their car with a Kitchenaid stand mixer, we just laugh and say to each other, "another worm drive." We even recommend they toss the mixer in the garage because if we replace it, it will fail again.
Again, ATK has a lot of good pointers and tips on buying such things but they fail miserably on quality mechanics and the durability of working parts.
Does it work with induction heating stove?
Be aware people, the Fagor valve is made of plastic and tends to break after a few years and is expensive to replace or not in stock.
The fagor is out of business. The Zavor brand is it's resureccion sold at Bed Bath and Beyond and other places.
for that kind of money you can get an electric cooker
