What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission warned consumers about Tristar Power Quick Pot pressure cookers, stating that the lids of the 6-quart cookers can open while pressurized, potentially expelling hot contents unexpectedly. The CPSC received 24 reports of these incidents, which resulted in serious burn injuries. The agency urged owners of approximately 393,000 units to stop using and dispose of the cookers. Tristar Products Inc. has refused to offer refunds, repairs, or replacements.
