I am not sure why pressure Cookers have dropped out of favour. I think they suffered bad press about 20 years ago when a combination of safety issues (very hot liquid at pressure) and a general feeling that this kind of cooking was "mumsy" made them uncool. I've always had one, but mine was an old one. The new one is similar in terms of being a large stainless steel pan with a pressure valve to create the pressure. However it is very sleek, economic and shiny. The biggest difference is the 5 safety features to reduce the risks of steam escaping.The Tefal Secure 5 Neo also offers two cooking programmes depending on ingredients used and result desired. Those 2 cooking modes are the vegetable mode or the meat and fish mode.

I bought this to replace a Smart Plus pressure cooker that leaked constantly from the day I bought it.The Tefal is a much higher quality cooker, it has never leaked at all - brilliant.The lid and main pot are easy to close and open.The silicon lid seal ensures a good leak proof joint.Being made of stainless steel it is easy to clean with a little lemon juice.It is quite heavy when full but the handle on the opposite side of the main handles makes it easy to move around.I use mine on an induction hob and it works very well, comes up to pressure quickly, and cooks in a fraction of the time it would take using conventional saucepans.There are a number of safety devices to stop the pressure getting too high,

Our pressure cooker memories are of ugly aluminium devices with dodgy valves and a tendency to explode; we haven’t had one for well over thirty years. A passé image and potential danger perceptions caused their demise in most modern kitchens, but Tefal’s introduction of their ‘Secure 5 Neo Pressure Cooker’ range has put these issues and images firmly in the past.We have a number of recent Tefal cooking aids in the kitchen and have found all to be well made, robust and durable. The Secure 5 continues this trend and is a quality, modern looking product finished in stainless steel with black handles. The seemingly foolproof, 5 layer security features have consigned the dangerous elements to history.

Not used a pressure cooker before but I do remember my mum rustling up some great meals with her old Prestige one. She would often use cuts of meat you wouldn't use today as well, lambs heart anybody? Her's was aluminium which I believe there were some health scares about, however no concerns with this one as it is made from heavy gauge stainless steel. It is very well finished and has the feeling of a premium product and is supplied with a vegetable steaming bucket, an instruction booklet, and a 10 year guarantee (although this only applies to the metal parts, the plastic bits are guaranteed for 1 year only).It is quite heavy but has a handle at the front to make it easier to lift,

Using pressure cooker is nothing new to me. Normally they last donkey years. I needed a new pressure cooker after we updated our cooker to an induction cooker. After looking for reviews, I have decided to go for Tefal Secure 5 Neo. And to be honest I am pleased that I did.Most of the old pressure cooker I used had weight and they used to make a lot of noises. Which is a very noticeable difference in these new silent pressure cookers. This pressure cooker is very shiny as you can see my pictures.This pressure cooker comes with two programmable settings. Low pressure (7PSI) setting took vegetables and high pressure (12PSI)

This is a great pressure cooker and for the price I'm sure can't be bettered. It replaced a 20+ year old prestige model that (in its day) was a huge improvement over the old fashioned type of pressure cooked I'd used before with weights you put on top. This represents as big an improvement over the old model as my replacement did 20 years ago.What's better:- it comes to pressure much more quickly- it is more energy efficient: a much lower setting is needed in the cooker to keep it at pressure- it loses less liquid during cooking through steam escaping- it is much quieter at pressureMy main concern was that (like all modern pressure cookers) it cooks at 13 PSI rather than 15 PSI.

I am a huge fan of pressure cooking and this cooker is mostly to thank. It feels very sturdy and is very easy to use and clean and is not particularly loud. The pot has a sturdy bottom, which prevents stuff from burning (although beware if yo make tomato based dishes, they are tricky to pressure cook). It comes with a steamer which is useful for vegetable cooking and desserts. The pot strikes a sweet spot between weight and performance. I wouldn't call it light-weight, but it is not particularly heavy either.If you, like me, are considering whether to get a pressure cooker or a slow cooker, go for the pressure cooker. You can do basically the same thing, but in a fraction of time and so much more flavour.

This has to be one of the best purchases I have made in a long time.It is well made and ultra easy to use, almost fool proof.I love cooking and I have enjoyed doing so for many years. Every now and again I would come across a recipe or advice from other home chefs that involved the use of a (dreaded) pressure cooker.I have terrifying memories of my Mam using one when I was a child, lots of steam, whistling and my Mam conducting it all with the prong on a fork.Well after many years of putting it off I did the research and bought this. It is so good and easy to use I bought one for my son and my Father (to replace the steam whistle).I do highly recommend this to anyone venturing in to using a pressure cooker,

I kid you not, this really is an eye opening utensil. It opens up so many possibilities.I can cook quick meals such a bolognas sauce, chilli con carne, casseroles, stews and much more in a fraction of the time, and to top it all, they taste and look like they were slow cooked.Things come out tender and tasty. This thing is a revelation.I can highly recommend it. Easy to wash too...no problem. It looks like the only part that would changing is the seal, but it looks like a consumable part that you could re-order easily and cheaply.This will be in the family for years and has made me so much more productive in the kitchen.Tip - buy the large size (this one) over a smaller one.

I used a Tower pressure cooker for years to make casseroles, whole meals; and' to deal with softening fruit for jam and chutneys as well as for bottling fruit and veg that I don't want to freeze. However, my old pressure cooker was looking a bit the worse for wear and was not suitable for a ceramic hob. This one is simply brilliant. It is very easy to use, doesn;'t hiss when it's working and, as well as being suitable for all hob types, including induction, the pan goes into the dishwasher. The only thing that coiuld have been better would have been for there to be a separator for the veg/teamer tray. However, baking foil can be used to separate contents if this is really necessary.

Like many others, I've had to buy a new pressure cooker as I'm going the induction hob route. Over the last 40 years I've had two high dome Tower pressure cookers - the latest with a calibrated weight to set three pressures. First impressions of the Tefal is that it looks a bit flimsy (I'm used to the heavy gauge needed for aluminium). However, the first couple of trials have been very satisfactory. The 12 psi max cooking pressure doesn't seem to slow down timings much (the Towers achieved 15psi). Without the clear colour bands of the Tower's weight, it's a bit trickier checking whether you're at pressure. The trick seems to be to back down the valve very, very slightly. If the hissing immediately increases,

Never considered a pressure cooker before I got this, but since getting it I've discovered much faster cooking with more flavour than I have before, a stew with cheap cuts of beef cook to tender almost falling apart In about 15 minutes.Tried oxtail for the firs time today, 45 minutes and it was falling off the bone and so moist.Pulled pork in 1hr10 minutes!Even simple things like boiled potatoes, done in 10 mins, the texture they have is completely different than boiling them for 15 minutes.This is easy to use, easy to clean, although the shiny lid does scratch up after the first use but I'm not bothered.Use it on a gas hob on full till it builds pressure then change it to the smallest burner

I am one of those people with terrifying memories of the early 70's and the silver monster in the kitchen! It made the most awful loud hissing like it was going to explode and the weights jangled loudly together while my Mom ran across the kitchen with it to put it under a tap! It used to scare me as a child half to death each time.So it was with a lot of trepidation that I researched and then eventually bought my own pressure cooker. Even then when it arrived I was too nervous to try it at first!Anyway- I did and I love it! My new pressure cooker isn't loud or frightening at all!! Casseroles and lamb shanks are cooked to perfection in no time. It's easy! My message is- if I can do it,

I have not used a Pressure Cooker in many years. In fact when I was growing up in the 1970's I can remember my Grandma's cooker blowing up and the meal ended up on the ceiling. This cooker incorporates 5 different security systems and it is therefore so much better made than those my Granny used. It has 2 cooking programmes, which you can alter and you can use it on all hobs. The quality of this product is outstanding and it is clearly very well made, coming with a 10 year guarantee.So the quality of the cooker is exceptional and therefore as I would have expected it cooks food with ease and speed. Overall this is a super pressure cooker and I am happy to highly recommend this item.

A good solid pressure cooker. Could do with better instructions for times for different dishes. I am still using the instructions from my old one. It has taken me a while to get used to the 'whisper' when it is up to pressure - it is hard to be sure it is 'doing'. The instructions say the valve assembly should be removed each time before use so as to check the hole is not blocked. This is a pfaff and I suspect I will 'forget' to do it soon. I find that a lot less liquid evaporates than with my old one but that may be because the old one had a dodgy seal. Generally very pleased with it. Shuts and opens well but best cooled under a tap before letting the steam out.
