I LOVE this pressure pan! I purchased it to replace my old aluminum 6qt cooker.  I love the stainless steel! It is easy to clean and lighter weight than my old one. The other thing I love is how easy the seal ring is to take out and put back for cleaning. That is awesome! Replacing the seal used to be so frustrating! No real cons other than the fact that the first time I went to push out the little rubber button on the lid for washing I cut my finger on the hole. My husband was able to remove the sharp burr that cut me and I haven't had a problem since.
