The Ambiano Electric Pressure Cookers are the product being recalled. The pressure-cooker lid can be opened before sufficient steam pressure has been released, causing hot contents to escape and burn consumers.

You should immediately stop using the recalled pressure cookers and contact either Tempo USA or ALDI for a full refund. Consumers can return the fully intact pressure cooker to any ALDI location for a full refund.
