I bought Cornell Red pressure cooker and it lasts till now, but the secret is to open the bottom cover and put a cheap silicone pad between the bottom of the pot and the plastic box which holds the circuits. With my super high usage my unit is still ok because the circuit doesn't overheat. You can do the same with Phillips or whatever model.

But if I'm buying now, I would buy a model with Induction Heating (IH). There is a good one on Taobao for 400 Yuan. Or buy the Korea brands like Cuchen but over 1000 ringgit. Induction doesn't make kitchen hot and save a bit of power.

By the way buying a induction soldering iron on taobao really open my eyes to the incredible technology it is. Instant red hot. Unfortunately they don't sell anymore....

This one, RM 1.80. Stick to the bottom of the plastic box with the circuit with UHU Glue. Cut to size. Basically those electric pressure cooker never has problems except circuit overheat. This video shows the box. Basically glue the mat between the white box & the pot bottom.

Still good. The only problem is to install the silicone rubber inside properly after cleaning up. Or else the next round you use, the water vapour will start escaping from the sides. I got a burn & dried up soup a few weeks ago sweat.gif

Yeah, my silicone gasket is about 6 years old, when it flops out, it makes it difficult to close the lid. So I think it is a flaw./ design feature haha.
Haven’t had any mishaps with failed dishes.
Just wished it was wider to get things in and out easier.
Tefal version, the gasket is inside the lid and no separate floating metal piece. Excited to getting it later.

how fast the philips pressure cooker cook rice?

Save many time?
*
Using pressure cooking time if 7 minutes for rice, plus the about 10 minutes to reach pressure. 17 minutes for 2 cups of rice.
A lot faster than 45 minutes with my Tefal rice cooker.
