This review is from: Kuhn Rikon 3043 Duromatic 6.3-Quart (6-Liter) Stockpot Pressure Cooker (Kitchen)
I bought this pressure cooker from a local kitchen store (same price as Amazon) and love it. I had a jiggler type before and this changes everything. With my old PC I had to be very careful to add enough water so that it didn't run out. Also, foamy items caused problems by clogging the valve. The K-R maintains pressure not by a release but by temperature moderation. You can cook using very little water because the water has nowhere to go. Some of the highly rated, but less expensive cookers still use some steam release method, which is way worse. Since the steam is trapped inside the K-R the flavors and vitamins are as well, meaning you get tastier, healthier food.

It's a bit tricky to determine the right settings on your stove (ours is old and uses buttons, only 5 settings), but once you do the pressure cooker is super easy to use. I only used my old one for beans, but I have already cooked risotto (soooo much easier than the old fashioned way) and steel cut oats in mine. I haven't yet used it for meat or stock, but I'll do the stock this week. Edit: I have now used this to cook both veggie and chicken stock. I can't say that I'll never buy boxed stock again, but this makes homemade stock a simple and quick process. Any stock that you make at home is going to be much more healthy and better tasting than one that comes in a box. We will try to always keep some stock in the freezer for soup making, which can also be done in the pressure cooker.

The reviewer above noted the size issue. At 2/3 full (the limit) you'd have over a gallon of volume, which is a pretty big bunch of soup. At 1/2 full for rice or beans youd'd have 8 cups of either. This may not be enough for two nights for a family of 4, but it's nothing to sneeze at. As our kids get older, I can imagine adding an 8 or 12 liter cooker to the arsenal.
