Blue Point pressure cookers exceed the minimum safety requirements of Europe and the United States with patented innovative features such as:
Euromatic Safety Valve: With the perfection of the automatic Euromatic valve, every Blue Point pressure cooker offers a high degree of safety with convenience and reliability. The valve only engages once the handle is properly locked and it ensures a safe build-up of pressure and opening of the lid by automatically closing once the oxygen has escaped. The valve also automatically releases any excess pressure to maintain a safe level at all times.
Residual Pressure Block: The cooker can only be opened if it has been depressurized completely.
Interlocking Lid: The stainless steel lid locks into place, creating a tight seal, and pressure can only build if the lid is put on correctly and locked. It is impossible to open the lid with pressure inside.
Automatic Steam Release: If the temperature in the cooker increases too much, the automatic steam release function in the main control valve permits steam to escape and keeps the inside pressure at a safe level.
These days, our lives are so busy that it?s particularly important to make sure that we cook healthy and time-saving meals. Fissler Blue Point pressure cookers combine healthy nutrition with gentle cooking, since atmospheric oxygen is expelled and the cooking periods are quite short. Vitamins and minerals, as well as nutrients and flavor, are thus preserved. You can see and taste the difference. With Blue Point, you save up to 70% of the regular cooking time and as much as 50% of the energy traditionally used in cooking. Using Blue Point pressure cookers is a great way of achieving a balanced diet while saving time and energy!
Conventional cooking methods cause many vitamins and minerals to be destroyed or released into the cooking liquid, which is often drained. Blue Point pressure cookers require less cooking liquid and cook faster, preserving food?s nutritional value.
Blue Point pressure cookers have two pressure levels, a gentle pressure level for cooking delicate food like vegetables and fish without destroying nutrients, and a speed pressure level for cooking meats and stews quickly.
No Sound, No Steam, No Smell
Blue Point pressure cookers are very unique in that they are completely silent. There is no unnerving rattling or hissing while pressure is inside.
Once the oxygen is expelled and the valve locks into place, hardly any steam escapes into the air during the cooking process keeping the kitchen cooler.
Because there is no steam, there are no cooking odors.

- CookStar All-Stove Base: the Fissler Difference
- High quality cookware is an investment that should last for lifetimes. Yet, the most important and overlooked part of a pot is the base. With other cookware, problems with warping, hot spots, poor and uneven heat distribution, and lack of heat storage are common whether it occurs at first use or over time. This can be attributed to the fact that aluminum expands with heat at a higher rate than stainless steel, thus warping the outer layers. Fissler has the solution to this problem with their internationally patented CookStar all-stove base, which is comprised of high-quality stainless steel and an extra-thick 6mm aluminum core to ensure even heat distribution and superior heat storage. The layers of the base are heated and bonded by an impact of over 1,500 tons, creating one single piece without any holes as opposed to three separate layers that are glued or welded together. CookStar bases are also slightly concave to ensure that the base is perfectly flat WHEN heated and feature expansion joints that allow the aluminum to expand without ever affecting the stainless steel. Fissler offers an unlimited guarantee that each CookStar base will stay perfectly flat and even on any kind of stove forever.
