Contact: ALDI toll-free at 800-325-7894 from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, online at https://help.aldi.us/contact-form-product, by email to Tempo at serviceusa@tempo.org, or by going to aldi.us and clicking on "Product Recalls" at the bottom of the page for more information.

Why it was recalled

The pressure-cooker lid can be opened before sufficient steam pressure has been released, causing hot contents to escape and posing a risk of burn injuries to consumers.

Incidents/injuries: The firm has received 11 reports of incidents, in which the contents were expelled under pressure, including eight reports of severe burn injuries.

Which products are affected

This recall involves all Ambiano electric pressure cookers with model numbers 93550 (KY-318B), 96775 (KY-318A), and 98527 (6L-PC). The electric pressure cookers and inner cooker pots are either six-quart or eight-quart capacity. The brand name Ambiano appears on the front of each unit and on its permanent on-product label. The model number of the recalled pressure cookers is also printed on the permanent product label on the bottom of the cooker.
