Is it same as the 3.8L Medicine Cooker W/ Stainless Heater By Sunpentown which is $3 more?

I believe so, yes. I have bought several over the last few years and notice that the price fluctuates by several dollars. It is a great cooker - so good I just purchased one for a friend.

It's a 6qt pot. My Cuisinart EPC-600 6qt pot is interchangeable with the Deni pot with each machine's pot working fine in the other cooker. Not sure how Deni got to call this a 6.5qt pot except maybe they rounded up. Many of these similar cookers are sold aboad as 6 liter pots and rounding 6 liters up to the nearest half quart gives you 6.5qt. FWIW, the sealing ring on the Deni and Cuisinart are also interchangeable.

Absolutely. The one I purchased online is exactly like the orignal. Just be sure you order 3 quart if that is what you had.

I am also looking for a lid to this cooker. Where can I get one and how much?

I personally feel that the 2 quart will more then handle reasonable servings for two people. That being said, I have found that I tend to over fill the pot with the 2 quart and wished I had a 3 quart so I would not have to worry about reaching the max.I should also add that having only to pay $9.99 - $11.99 for the 2 quart it was a simple no-risk purchase. I do plan on getting a bigger slow cooker with more control in the near future. The 2 quart has been a great little no-frills tool.

Stock# 01365 & 01362 are both Stainless Steel 6 quart cookers that operate at 15 PSI, the difference is in the design.Stock# 01365 has an one additional feature "the pressure relief valve". This is a warning device that is designed to provide both visual (the blue cap lifts and steam comes out the sides) and audio (a fast, steady release of steam, often times accompanied by a continuous unpleasant sound) signals to indicate that the vent pipe has been blocked and is no longer regulating pressure and there is excessive pressure in the cooker.Please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-877-0441 or contact1@gopresto.com if you have any questions.

The heater that is pictured is a Lakewood Jr which I have had in the past (seems to last only for a year). I wanted to order it again but at that time it was called Homebasix which I ordered in September of 2013 and it is the same kind and size heater but with a different name. I always liked that heater as it is a perfect size for my needs, but it also gave out after a year! I tried to find it again but haven't so far, but apparently you did so maybe I will look into that one. Hope this helped you...

Scott,second reply! Yes.there are three, the third one you can see way up there in the back when it is glowing on high heat! Heating tubes(pr) $18.00, PN-1780- Order-866-747-4328. Lifesmart Tech Spt--1-888-542-5953 Unit throws out moderate heat! ROD

The heat is the difference plus the cleaning. When I have cooked with the SS one that I had it handled the heat better without scorching. The aluminum has a lower heat rating(not mentioned anywhere just what I have observed). Also cleaning the residue from cooking from aluminum to SS different. But I am happy with my aluminum pressure cooker. There are a few small adjustments. The difference in price and size was important in getting a new pressure cooker for us. But If you don't have price in mind go with the SS. If price is a consideration/size the aluminum is a very GOOD purchase!!

Nope, this is the wider one. The one with the hour glass shape is also on amazon, should cost you around $12.

I'm not sure, but I believe that Presto only makes one 8-quart stainless steel pressure cooker. This one fits mine.

I have this and the Nuwave (the infomercial I think you're referring to). The Nuwave is bigger and much more powerful and cooks about 20% - 30% faster than the Sunpentown SO-2002. The Sunpentown seems better built (ie, glass bowl). FWIW, I use the Nuwave and love it. The Sunpentown is in reserve should the Nuwave break. It CAN cook multiple items but they all need to be on the same rack and you need to know cooking times for different items to know when to put them in the oven. They need to be on the same rack so as to get direct heat. If you use multiple levels the lower levels take FOREVER to cook as they don't get direct heat.

Unaware that one is available for this product. I think Instapot is the only pressure cooker with a stainless steel insert which is for a 6 qt. and they do offer a separate one for purchase.

I do not have posession of this cooker; I purchased it as a gift for my sister. Check out the Presto website. This type of inforrmation should be there. All I know is she loves it.

I have no idea. When I called T-Fal about replacing it, they sent me to SmallAppliance.com. Their customer service is horrible, unlike T-Fal who only wanted to help. The website didn't say they were backordered, so after waiting a month, I called and found out the truth. I canceled my order immediately as they said it would be months before more came in. The pots they had were $29.95 as well. If you have a link to the pot you are referring to, post it please. I'd like to have a look. Wish I could be of more help.

It's the same, but there's a pasta cooking chart that comes with it....tells serving size, water level, and cooking time. It's for many types of pasta, spaghetti, linguini, fettuccini, lasagne, macaroni, shell pasta, egg noodles. I like this pasta cooker, unless I'm cooking a very large amount.
