The Presto 4-quart aluminum 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.

Fissler's Blue Point Pressure Pan set does it all. It grills, sears, frys, saute's, steams, braise, and pressure cooks. This set includes the 1) pressure skillet, 2) the pressure lid, 3) wire basket, and 4) glass lid. The pressure skillets' 10.2" diameter and 4.2 quart capacity makes it versatile enough to cook smaller meals but large enough to handle family dinners too. The interior of the skillet features the Novagrill surface. The honeycomb texture keeps food from sticking with much less oil than convential pans. But unlike non-stick pans, foods come out beautifully browned. The Novogrill surface works in conjunction with the CookStar all-stove base. The CookStar base guarantees even heat distribution without hotspots. And the CookStar base means the Fissler Pressure Skillet can be used on any heat source, including induction ranges. The Blue Point Pressure Pan exceeds the minimum safety requirements of Europe and the United States with innovative features such as the patented Euromatic safety valve, residual pressure block, interlocking lid, and automatic steam release. These ensure that any excess pressure is automatically released and that the steam released is never hot enough to burn. Fissler invented the very first pressure skillet in 1969.
