Faster weeknight meals – thanks to pressure-sealed cooking

Pressure traps steam and raises internal temperature, shortening conventional cooking times by up to 70% and lowering energy use to around 18p per hour according to the manufacturer.

Stews, joints and dried beans finish far sooner than with regular methods, freeing time in the evening and reducing running costs.

More nutritious results – thanks to sealed cooking that locks in nutrients

A sealed environment reduces nutrient loss by retaining moisture and volatile compounds, helping to preserve up to 90% more vitamins compared with other methods while concentrating flavours.

Vegetables keep colour and texture and stocks taste richer, so meals are healthier and more satisfying without extra effort.

Versatile family cooking – with 6L capacity and included steamer basket

The 6L pan accommodates four to six portions and large joints; the supplied steam basket and support stand enable steaming and straining while the bonded steel base spreads heat evenly across all hob types, including induction.

Good for one-pot family dinners, joint roasts and steaming vegetables without needing additional pans.
