No one hurt Made Jul 22, 2014, sent to the company Jul 30, 2014, published by CPSC Aug 20, 2014
The product, in the report: 8 Quart 8Quart Pressure Cooker .
I was using a Philippe Richard 8 quart pressure cooker that depressurized while in use. I believe the lid warped under pressure. A second guess is that there was a seal failure. This caused the hot water to instantly boil and spray to the side. This would have resulted to serious injury had I not moved quickly.
