Review: Value for money. - I needed the smallest convenient cooker for my family and at 5litres this came in handy. First I got shipped a broken unit probably from a return which I promptly sent back. desertcart sent in a replacement in 48hrs. It has been a dream cooking with this, insanely efficient, easy to clean and less messy (they all do). On an induction cooker, it actually reduces cooking time thereby saving energy even further. A must-have. Good product
Review: Bad buy - Totla regret. This is not steaming any longer just steams from under. I will not advise anyone to get this. This is a waste of money.

BEFORE 10 MAY Check virgin media to adjust dd amount or CANCEL the £75 DD Check Birt gas payment account Check the council tax thing Review updated after further use: I’m new to using a pressure cooker, but I found this one easy enough to get the hang of. The instructions were mostly clear, and the safety features made me feel a lot more confident – the pressurised cooker is designed to be hard to open until pressure has been released (just make sure you don’t force it!) And there is a fast release vent. Please please read the booklet first to ensure you know how to use a pressure cooker safely. You must only fill it to maximum 2/3 full to prevent issues, and 2/3 is for things like rice. For stews only half full. It is large enough that for a stew it will make up to 6 small bowls or 4 large bowls full. It’s a good size for batch cooking meal prep or if youre cooking for a few people, and i found it easy to clean too. Overall, it’s made cooking stews much faster and I will be trying out more recipes in future. Definitely happy I gave it a try! Also, its worth looking up pressure cooker safety stuff online to find out which foods need to be handles carefully when cooking with a pressure cooker e.g. how to ensure thick foods like thickened stews should be handles and how things like milky recipes that might boil over should be handled. Notes: 1. You must press the lid on while sealing/closing it otherwise the seal wont close properly and you will not achieve any pressure. Make sure to push lid down when closing! 2. The gasket seal does smell a bit like rubber – I washed it several times but it still smelled a bit. Then I rubbed some vinger on it for ten minutes and this helped the smell go away. I used apple cider vinegar. 3. The only thing I thought could be clearer in the instructions was how the visual pressure valve thing works. Its actually v simple, but as I was new to pressure cooking I was a bit wary. You just have to lift it and slide the knob either to the high pressure or lower pressure setting. Also, when you want to slide it to the fast release setting, you can do it by hand because the steam will be released from the opposite direction. You can use a butter knife to move it if you are cautious. 4. Also, the small grey knob on the lid will be raised when there is pressure inside the cooker, and will go back down when pressure release is complete.
