This is the one I have.
Irrespective of what cooker you choose, please read the manual first. A lot of bad reviews on amazon for pressure cookers are from people who had no clue of what they were doing.
You can usually tell if they're going to be quiet by the absence of a "jiggler" on top - although not a perfect gauge, it works pretty well.
Here's a T-Fal and a Presto that are inexpensive and highly rated.
As always, I have to throw in a recommendation for Hawkins - although their best value is in their hard anodized cookers like this one. The Futura line lets out a fairly constant quiet hiss when the flame is appropriately set. Their more traditional ones (appear like jigglers) don't jiggle, but give a periodic concentrated burst of steam. That's because these are "modified 1st gen" technology. But, I am a fan of the simple lid locking mechanism.
