I had a great experience with this pressure cooker, which was supported me through out my study time of 7 years. Still I am using this same cooker till date after 9 years of marriage. It means its last around 16 years and still continue.
It is very easy to use for who dont know the cooking also, I am one of them.
To be frank, the style & design of this model is not trendy like todays model. But in the sense of durability it is number one.
After the use of 16 years, I could not able to remember, when I simply change the gasket. Just forget about the maintenance. Purchase and use for a long time in fact 2-3 generation.
