Can both pieces be used with a 6 QT stove type pressure cooker? The header says for electric PC's.

It didn't fit in my 6 qt stovetop pressure cooker, but was perfect in my Cuisinart electric.

You can use them both in the stove & electric cook top. I use it in the gas stove, Once the pressure is reached turn the gas to low maintaing the pressure head up or to the line indicated in the pressure cooker.

Hi Monica...I did not notice that it is not the electric pressure cooker...the ring is for the electric one. More then likely not the same.

Hello, B. Hetland. The size pressure cooker you choose should depend on how you intend using it. When I purchased my first pressure cooker I also was looking at the 6 & 8 qt. After researching, I decided on the 8qt, and was very pleased with the decision. You see, the qt capacity is to the brim of the pressure pan. However, it should not be filled past 2/3 full--and with some foods, not past 1/2 full, this means that in an 8qt cooker, the most you can put into it will be less than 6 quarts for the 2/3 full and, and for the 1/2 full rule, only 4 qts. I like to cook in large batches, so about 6 months ago I decided to also get a 10qt [Fagor]. Pressure cookers are extremely versatile appliances. In addition to cooking under pressure, they can also be used as regular saucepans, replacing other cookware. If you really get into using it frequently, and for its many applications, the larger 8qt size will give you more options, because it will accomodate a greater variety of inserts. Here is one that I have found extremely useful: Wolfgang Puck Stainless Steel Dessert Maker Insert. This is also available brand new at eBay for a very reasonable price. I understand your concern for space limitations, and while the 8qt does have a larger footprint, I think you will be happy with that choice in the long run. I too have limited space in my kitchen, I managed to make room for 3 pressure cookers [6, 8 & 10 qt]. Because these are the pans I use most often, one is always "on display" on the cooktop. I also have a 4qt Presto, which I recently put with our camping gear. Because you are new to pressure cooking, you will probably be looking for useful information on how to get the most from your new pressure cooker. I recommend this cookbook: Miss Vickie's Big Book of Pressure Cooker Recipes The author also has a website with discussion forums www.missvickie.com

Hello Yolanda,Geez I don't know. I purchased this for the Splendid 6qt pressure cooker by Fagor and it fit. They don't make the replacement very simple. Hope you find what you need.Tamara

Not a good idea. The burner is quite small (5 3/4" diameter). You would risk having your pressure cooker fall off. I'd suggest a larger unit.

Did you not get a 6 qt. pot with the pressure cooker? Mine does not happen to be stainless steel...it has a sort of Teflon coating, but better! Therefore, I cannot answer your question. Perhaps you might try to contact the company and ask! Hope this helps!

While I have used mine with a small 4qt pressure cooker I would not recommend a larger one as I think it may be too heavy for the unit considering the weight of the cooker plus the water and jars.

you should be fine, this is rated for 2000watts and your cooker is less at 1600watts. You have 400 spare Watts.

Thank your interest in our GW22602 Pressure Cooker. 4qt is a good choice, it all depends on how much you plan to cook (4 qt = 16 cups, 6 qt = 24 cups). Either one would be a great gift. Hope this helps.

I have an electric pressure cooker, test the bottom of your cooker to make sure a magnet sticks STRONG. If it does I don't know why it would not work ????

B.Hetland, Congratulations! I think you made a very wise decision. You'll probably get really good use from both those size cookers. As you become more comfortable with pressure cooking, you'll find more and more ways to use the cookers. You mentioned regular cooking corn on the cob. I now do corn in the PC. In fact, we're having that today. I put the corn into the steamer basket over a cup of water, bring up to pressure, time for 4 minutes & quick or cold water release...perfect! So quick and easy. Many people believe that vegetables turn to mush in the PC, but not if you know how!

The cooking surface is about 11" in diameter and as long as the material of the pressure cooker is magnetic, I don't see why it wouldn't.

Not if you only purchased the pressure cooker. I suggest checking your order details.
