We purchased this product because we installed an induction hob and our old Prestige pressure cooker was no use. We are very impressed with it. I don't know where the negative reports are coming from because there is no escape of steam from the seals. The controls are very simple to understand and to use. There is no valve which can fail and send the contents up to the ceiling. Any excess pressure escapes at back of the handle in a horizontal direction away from where your hands would be ie. to the back of the hob.

My new Smartplus pressure cooker works just fine. Cooks down meat and veg quickly and quietly and there is no escaping steam. The build quality is fine. I
t's a good little cooker that saves time and resources. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

I was given a 6L stainless Smartplus as a gift to replace the (very) old alminium Prestige model I'd inherited. I used the old one loads and had always found it trouble free. I was very disappointed with the new model which had many of the problems described in other poor reviews, it took a long time to come to pressure, a long time to cook food and used ridiculous amounts of water, often meaning the food inside became dry and sometimes burned.
On washing the lid after another disasterous attempt I managed to remove some 'material' from within the safety valve. It could have been food but I don't think it was. After this the valve moves much more freely within the rubber seal, it now falls open or closed as you turn the lid upside down and back. Previously (I think from new) there was more resistance to the valve moving and you had to use your finger to move it through the rubber seal. The pressure cooker now works brilliantly, if the contents are boiling before I put the lid on it comes up to pressure almost immediately, only a very low heat is required to keep it at pressure during cooking and virtually no water is used.
With it working as well as it is now I've not noticed any real difference between the 12 psi pressure and the old 15 psi of the aluminum model for the cooking I do. If you're having problems I'd suggest a look at the safety valve or maybe try a new one.

excellent product
Being used to using a pressure cooker, I found this to be an excellent, easy-to-use product - heavy (but not too heavy!) with a good base to prevent burning.
