    Good Points: Used to cook well

    Bad Points: Falling apart.

    General comments: I have only had the Prestige Aluminium Pressure Cooker for a year and it has already fallen apart, both of the handles have come off, it`s just a good job nothing hot was in it at the time. I will see what prestige are willing to do about this and let you know. My last pressure cooker lasted me 18 years so it`s not the handling of it.

    I have used a Prestige Pressure cooker all my married life... that is for 47 years and never had a problem with it at all. It was a life-saver and I have even made steamed puddings, jams, complete meals including vegetables and stews i.e. oxtail, lamb, beef, neck of mutton etc.... in fact anything cookable. Reliable and hard-wearing. Highly recommended as far as I am concerned. I wouldn't call replacing a gasket or safety valve a bad point at all... it is just normall wear and tear. I think th ...

    I would generally say I am satisfied with Prestige pressure cooker, quite affordable but you do have to do some maintenance like changing the silicon gasket with something tougher for the job, try some vulcanized food grade rubber gasket. Friendly advice, when you're done cooking immediately dose off the heat with tap water, old school but it helps the life of the gasket.

    I bought my prestige pressure cooker in 1987 and only now need to get a new ring. I am surprised all the other reviews are so bad as I have used this cooker every week and have found it to be a life saver. I bought my cooker in South Africa and it has travelled with me to the USA and now the UK.

    Do not buy this Prestige Aluminium Pressure Cooker in the UK. The company is well established in India and that is the only reason I bought it as there were other pressure cookers available in the market as well but this product that they are selling in UK has been a disappointment to me.

    Pressure cooker was returned to prestige, but very disappointed with outcome. Prestige placed the fault at my door. I would not buy another Prestige pressure cooker!

    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 ...
