Could not be happier

 

Upgraded to a scanpan and it works so much better than my old encore pressure cooker ever did. Sorry I did not upgrade years ago. Hope I will still be able to buy gaskets even though this model has been discontinued. I did not know at the time of...

Having sealing issues

 

I purchased this pressure cooker when I arrived in Australia and have had nothing but problems with it. I would have returned it but living in country WA the hassle of sending it back to the shop was just to much. I have tried to get the seal to work...

The seal does not hold and pressure is never reached. Not really a pressure cooker.

Design Fault Dud, cant work

 

As other reviewers have said the seal bulges from a missing bit of the rim of the lid that is referred to as a "Safety Window" in the manual. I suspect that this is because the rest of the product is of such low quality that the company does not trust...

Looks nice

Not a pressure cooker as doesn't hold pressure.

Good but sealing rings don't last long

 

I love cooking with a pressure cooker - they rule. I got this one as a gift and for a while I was on cloud nine. It was all fun and games until it failed to seal/cook on the day I had guests over. I have been through two sealing rings despite cleaning...

Good size

Only comes with high pressure regulator (low pressure one needs to be bought separately), bad seals

Never worked from new

 

Faulty seals, works great as a pot but I might as well throw the lid away. I would never buy one again and should have read these reviews before buying a pressure cooker. My mum always used a pressure cooker and I brought this to show my wife how well...

Nothing at all. At best it is a good pot to boil dog food in

It is meant to be a pressure cooker not a pot. A very expesive pot at that

Shonky workmanship

 

Do your research before buying a Scanpan cooker. As other users have said, it doesn't seal properly. Valves not working and moreover, the handles also fell apart! Shonky workmanship... Buy a Fagor or a Sitram or even an Aldi number and they would work...

Doesn't seal properly, valve issues and handles fell apart after first few times.

Excellent Cooker - I love it

 

I love this pressure cooker and have had no problems at all. Some other reviews say that there are problems with pressure leaking but I have not had any issues at all. I love, love, love it! The manual could be a bit better as I cannot for the life of...

Everything, its fast at cooking and works perfectly. And we didn't need a second mortgage to purchase it

Don't scrimp on one of these if you want a pressure cooker.

 

til this point I hadn't seen at all. Whilst I started having some success with the unit and the new found seal, my Mum (a veteran pressure cooker chef of 30+ years) still wasn't particulary impressed with it. The large main lid seal consistently bulges...

Don't scrimp on one of these if you want a pressure cooker.

 

Per some of the previous reviews.... Initially I bought mine, my first pressure cooker, as a discounted Myers shelf/display model and as it turns out the washer had been lost prior to my first attempts with it. Of course it took me some frustration,...
