Predicting the needs of consumers...

Founded in 1905 in Eau Claire, WI.

It is a respected producer in the housewares and small electric appliance industry.

The company created the first saucepan-style pressure cooker in 1939.

Its first electric appliance came in 1948 with the Presto Vapor Steam Iron; the first steam iron to use tap water instead of costly distilled water. In 1956, Presto introduced a complete line of fully submersible electric cooking appliances employing the first removable heat control. Other notable innovations include the PrestoBurger hamburger cooker in 1974, the FryBaby electric deep fryer in 1976, the SaladShooter electric slicer/shredder in 1988, and the Pizzazz pizza oven in 2000.

Predicting the needs of consumers...

...and then fulfilling those needs through consistent product innovation and quality manufacturing has been the objective of National Presto Industries for over 100 years, and it will continue to be in the years ahead.

Pressure cookers have experienced renewed popularity over the last several years because cooks have rediscovered what some cooks (particularly grandmas) have known for a long time--they're really fast. And it's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. Presto's 8-quart pressure cooker is a multi-purpose pot that can stand in as a conventional soup pot as well as perform the kitchen magic that pressure cookers are famous for. Chicken Cacciatore cooks in 8 minutes! (The USDA recommends pressure canning as the only safe method for low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats, and poultry.) This professional-quality stainless steel pressure cooker is a handy addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools.

The heavy-duty lid locks down during cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. This pressure cooker is useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains 75 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even desserts like Petite Pumpkin Custards! Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork; or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture.

Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this stainless steel pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The Presto 8-quart pressure cooker is fully immersible; in addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 10-1/2 inches in diameter (15-1/2 inches including handles) and 8-1/2 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

Amazon's logarithms are PSYCHIC!
Amazon's Artificial Intelligence is operating at, like, a psychic level now!! i'm astoundedi needed a stainless steel pot with a lid to make a moonshine still with, so i thought i'd take to Amazon to find one, which i'd need to drill a hole in somehow so i could put my tubing through.i was very concerned, how the heck was i going to get a tubing-shaped hole in my pot, & while trying to put in said hole, would a piece of the pot possibly come flying off & get stuck in my eyeball or something?enter the Presto 01370 and Jeff Bezos' and Amazon's ASTOUNDING GENIUS-NESSi ordered my pot, which had been previously purchased then returned by another Amazon customer as damaged.well as i went to unbox new pressure pot.... PIECES OF THE PRODUCT BROKE OFF IN MY HAND, AND BEHOLD!!! a /PERFECTLY-SIZED/ HOLE appeared in the lid of my distiller-to-be!!omg i was THRILLED!!! gone were my worries of "how'm i gonna drill a hole in this" and "if i hit it with a hammer or something to get the hole, is a piece of plastic gonna break off & wreck my eye"HOW did they know this was the perfect pot for me, &.... did they actually arrange for the pot's previous owner to do the hard work & take all the safety risks for me?what AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! this level of anticipating then going way out of their way to meet customers' very specific needs brings Amazon to a whole crazy-new level.THANK YOU GUYS!!!!VERY VERY VERY VERY IMPRESSEDxoxoxo!!!
