Review on ๐Ÿ”’ Presto 09906 Pressure Cooker Sealing Ring/Automatic Air Vent Pack: Efficient Seal for 4 & 6 Quart Cookers by Heidi Willis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits Presto 6 Qt 1972. Pressure cooker

Old stainless steel pressure cookers were designed to be tough. But her Achilles heel was the rubber lid gasket and rubber relief valve plug. Luckily these were of high quality too and while mine was still fine the lid gasket started to crack and became stiff. Presto rushes to the rescue. I've matched my stove's model number, which is stamped on the bottom of the pot and on the metal label on the handle, to this set and now I can use it for another 40 years. This ring isn't exactly the same thickness (it's the right diameter) as the original, so the seal is a little leaky, the condensate drips for a while until it gets hot and I start to build vapor pressure. After all, it seals completely and works like a charm. THANKS to Presto for continuing to offer these cookware replacements after all these years.
