Review: Sturdy, stainless steel entry-level pressure cooker - Sturdy, good quality pressure cooker. It's the first one that I have ever bought. It arrived promptly with the packaging intact. It is easy to use and clean but note that it is not to be cleaned in a dishwasher. It is very effective in terms of cooking beans / chickpeas in no time. There are two things that could be improved somewhat. 1. The plastic knob on the lid that controls the amount of pressure in the pot is a bit flimsy and has fallen off a few times. It feels like it's made of cheap plastic. It's easy to put back on in any case and easy to clean as a separate part. 2. The plastic / silicone seal for the lid also feels a little insubstantial. This is my first pressure cooker so I don't have a lot to compare it to. The rest of the pot is excellent and very sturdy. I was concerned about the base that has an aluminium component but I think that the aluminium is encapsulated in steel so that aluminium does not come into contact with your food. The instruction manual is very comprehensive and useful. There is a strange smell when using the pot for the first time and the manual does recommend boiling some water in it first. After that, the smell does go and food tastes brilliant! Some steam can escape using the highest pressure setting for the pot but I think this may be normal. I would definitely recommend this product as an entry level pressure cooker that was good value for money and does the job.
Review: Very good product - Love using my pressure cooker. Very versatile. Good size and appearance.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the Tower T80244 pressure cooker suitable for an induction hob**
A: Hi

This is suitable for all hob types including induction.

Kind regards
Tower

**Q: Does Any brand's gasket (ribber ring) of 6 litre fit in case this is worn out or needs Tegfal only, does anyone know ?**
A: I would suggest that you only use a Tower brand rubber gasket on a Tower T80244 cooker. A Tefal rubber gasket maybe of different width and thickness and not seal either correctly or at all!
I hope this helps.
Good health, Bill

**Q: Hi I have lost the pressure valve, is it available as spare? Thanks**
A: go direct to the manufacture for a new one

**Q: I am somewhat nonplussed because there is a mention of a 1000 W wattage in the product spec. Is this an electric pressure cooker?**
A: This is a stovetop pressure cooker, not an electric one. No idea why the product spec mentions wattage. It must be a mistake.

Love using my pressure cooker. Very versatile. Good size and appearance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tower Pressure cooker
*by D***S on 19 November 2020*

Using a pressure cooker will save money and time. To cook vegetables takes only 4 to 6 minutes and only 0.5 to 0.75 pints of water used which collects all the vitamins form the vegetables and can be used to make the gravy. Cooking with the pressure cooker enables the cooker to continue cooking when the steam pressure has been reached and hence the vapour is contained in the cooker and not released to the kitchen, causing condensation. What is missing from the Tower pressure cooker is the bottom steamer plate. This sits on the bottom above the water and allows potatoes to sit on this and the vegetable basket can sit on top with the green vegetables and sliced carrots. The steamer tray can be bought as an extra for a couple of pounds on Amazon. Also the steam basket is now more shallow and vegetables are not as secure as with the previous deeper basket. I have kept my old baskets and these can be stacked for larger families. The Tower pressure cooker is easy to use and I would recommend it for all families that want to reduce cooking time, save energy, stop kitchen condensation and retain all cooking vegetable juice for sauces and gravy.
