Why IMUSA Pressure Cookers May Be Unsafe

Stovetop IMUSA cookers rely on manual pressure regulation. When defects occur, they can become dangerous. Common risks amongst pressure cookers in general include:

• Faulty lid locks – Lids detaching while under pressure.
• Weak gaskets or seals – Allowing steam and boiling liquid to escape suddenly.
• Broken or clogged valves – Preventing safe release of pressure.
• Material weaknesses – Aluminum or steel cracking or bursting.
• Inadequate warnings – Instructions that don’t emphasize safety risks.

Pressure Cooker Burn Injuries in Florida

Floridians injured by defective IMUSA cookers could suffer from any of the following if their cooker is defective:

• Second- and third-degree burns
