6 Quart pressure cooker mirror aluminum Feb 19, 2009
If you have a glass top I would not buy this model
Amazon says the following in the description
15 lb. pressure control. Removable self sealing gasket. Safety fuse. Heatproof handles with reminder ring. Strong aluminum alloy. Rack and instruction booklet. Not recommended for canning.
It does not have a rack in mine, it does not have a 15 pound control, it is 10 pound by the instructions.
Amazon says nothing about cooking on a glass top, instruction Book says not to use on glass top stoves because the bottom has a concave in the middle that won't allow it to get up to pressure, Well I have a glass top and not wanting to send it back I tried it, came to a boil faster than a old (20 or more years)I own, Put the lid on and it locked fairly quick, maybe 5 minutes? steam started coming out of the top, I waited about 2 minutes and put the weight on, maybe 6 to 8 minutes it was bounceing like it should, so much for not coming up to pressure on a glass top stove.
The finish is super polished, Looks like stainless steel not aluminum. add photo does not do it justice.
After the test and using it once I found another DO NOT USE ON GLASS TOP,
so I sent a E mail to consumeraffairs@wearever.com today
here is what I asked
model 92160 6 quart cooker
Bought it on line at Amazon.com
the descripttion on their web site didn't say any thing about a glass top stove.
in the instructions saw that it might not come up to pressure on a glass top which I have,
I tested it with just water to see and it came up to pressure really fast, twice as fast as my old mirror 4 quart flat bottom pressure cooker I have.
so I cooked a resipe of rice pudding in the book and it did what it was suppossed to do, came up to pressure fast and cooked just like the book instructions time setting.
Then I was rereading the instruction book some more and I came accross this
Got it and in the page 2 of instructions and it says
do not use on flat glass top or glass ceramic ranges could damage cooker, this cooker has a curved concave bottom which will not make proper contact with the cooking surface which could result in damage to your pressure cooker.
what do they mean damage, is it going to blow up or what.
I can't understand why it would be any diffront than a electric coil wire stove top, it wouldn't contact the bottom any more than My glass top, in fact less ,,according to you to get proper contact you would have to use a gas stove only.
Is it safe to use on my glass top? 2-19-09
