motherduck's Review of Prestige Aluminium Pressure Cooker
23rd Mar 2007
Overall Rating
- Value for money
Cheap. Easy steam release.
Bad Points
Very bad design. The safety plug has a tiny little ring which can easily be lost in the washing up and it costs £5 to buy a new valve.
General Comments
I have owned this for a year and it cost me around £18. I have already spent £13 on replacement parts, i.e., a safety plug because I lost the ring and have just ordered a new gasket because steam seems to be escaping, although I don't know if the gasket is the problem. Very dissatisfied with this pressure cooker. I have been using pressure cookers for 40 years and have never had to replace parts like I have on this one.
I would give this one a miss. I'll never buy this type of pressure cooker again.
