I have the same problem. It worked fine in the first 6 months but now it stops working without holding down the pressure.

I ended up throwing mine away virtually no customer service fron nesco I ordered a diffrent brand from hsn and absolutely love it. Posted all over the web reviews about horrible nesco pressure cookers I will never buy another Nesco product.

Contact nesco directly. They will ask you to ship it to them to repair. Mine was repaired and has been working fine ever since.

I'm currently having the same issue. I bought a hand held gas detector & discovered that my new stove has a slight leak from one of the rings! I am waiting on a part from the stove manufacturer to be available (by next week) and will see if it changes the situation! I will recalibrate as directed by the supplier of the hood and will follow up here when I feel either all is okay or status quo!

Sorry but I cannot help because it was cash in the trash. The info posted is inaccurate. I bought two for my sister's pressure cooker based on the size of her cooker and what was advertised. They both went in the garbage because by the time they arrived,, it was too late to return them and two it never made sense because it would cost us to return them.

Depends how old it is and what brand and if it is for canning or a regular pressure cooker. Let me know and I will see if I can help.

The unit is still in for repair. The tank pressure gauge didn't work when I first pulled it out of the box. I would be very interested to see if I get an after market replacement gauge when I get it back.

I must be doing something wrong. My rice in pressure cooker is awful. But then I usually only make brown rice.

That was just the opposite of my experiences. Mine were constantly hard (undercooked) no matter how long I cooked them, even tried soaking them overnight still no success, so it stays in back of my cabinet and took out my old pressure cooker and gone back to my old ways!!!

No success so far. I have same problem with rice cookers. I positively will not buy non-stick, still looking for alternatives. Peter

It has not happened to us. Maybe the computer chip is defective. Contact Cuckoo. It is possible to unplug the cooker and wait 10 seconds then plug in and restart. If that does not work then contact cuckoo.

I have a Presto pressure cooker. I would suggest looking at the bottom of your old pressure regulator and see how it's constructed. This one has an "open clover-leaf" type opening with four sections.

The pressure cooker should have a model number on it somewhere. It's usually stamped on the bottom. Try searching Amazon or Google for the model number with the word "gasket" (example: "A403A gasket"). Good luck.

I love mine, the T-fal P2510737 unit. This unit is really only for pressure cooking, NOT pressure canning. The new types are so much easier than the old ones that could overpressurize. One thing that is really important, let the unit vent steam for several minutes before closing it to make sure you get a good seal. The instructions were not a clear on that but i knew to do it from pressure canning.

Did some web checkng and am not finding anything. A site called replacements.com used to carry. Perhaps it's time to buy an updated model. I know--this is a great slow cooker. Don't know why they stopped making them. Sorry I couldn't be of help.
