Another big recall has been announced that deserves your attention.
Sensio is recalling about 860,000 electric and stovetop pressure cookers.
The pressure cooker’s lid can unlock and be removed during use, causing the hot contents to unexpectedly splash out, posing a burn hazard to consumers.
Sensio has received 63 reports of incidents, including 61 burn injuries, some of which involved second- and third-degree burns to the face, torso, arms, and hands.
This recall involves Bella, Bella Pro Series, Crux, and Cooks electric pressure cookers, and Bella stovetop pressure cookers.
The stainless-steel electric pressure cookers are six-, eight-, and 10-quart, while the stovetop are five-, eight-, and 12-quart.
The item or model number is printed on the on-product label or imprinted stamp on the cookers’ bottom.

The pressure cookers were sold JCPenney, Kohl’s, Lowe’s, Macy’s, and Target stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com and other websites from September 2015 through September 2020. The cost was between $30 and $70 for the electric pressure cookers and between $8 and $18 for the stovetop pressure cookers.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled pressure cookers and contact Sensio for a refund, the company and U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission advise.
