 Limitations of the WMF Pressure Cookier August 12, 2010

I have cooked curries and stews regularly in my mum's 30 yr old pressure cooker but recently decided to buy a new WMF Perfect Pressure Cooker as the old lid was getting too hard to screw on and off. I found that there is a major limitation of the WMF cooker, especially if you like making curries and stews. This cooker has a 'safety valve' containing a metal ball. This is the small black dot on top of the lid. The theory is that once sufficient pressure has built up, the metal ball moves into the upper chamber, blocking the outlet and enabling pressure to build. So unless the ball moves, the pressure cooker won't build pressure.
However, when the contents contain a quantity of meat and other ingredients such as when making a curry, the ball simply refuses to move into the cooking position, with the result that all the steam is lost, and pressure does not build up. I never had this problem with my old pressure cooker. I encounter this problem even when there is at least 250ml water in the pot as per instructions. The only time the cooker works properly is when there is nothing but liquid in the pot, or it needs so much liquid that the resulting curry is very watery. Not all modern pressure coookers have this type of mechanism.
 Great cooker for about 1 year, then no support... February 13, 2010

I purchased one of these last year from The Viking Store and enjoyed it until the valve broke. I found the part listed online but the manufacturer, WMF, will not respond to my inquiries about how to purchase one. I was surprised that the Viking store would not even attempt to help me find a part or look into warranty info.
That's the last time I buy a "premium" product from the Viking store expecting it to last or have some support.

This is my fifth pressure cooker and purchased because I was tired of liquid vent evaporation and scorching difficulties. Both were resolved with the WMF Perfect Plus. You will not be disappointed with this pressure cooker. One word of caution: if you are used to the older style of pressure cooker, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS, or better yet, spend a few minutes on U-Tube watching how this cooker works. Although I felt well-researched before my first cooking experience, I still managed to keep the heat too high after it came to pressure. Once the cooker raised to the second red ring, it requires almost no additional heat to keep it under pressure. My old cookers required a setting of 5/10 on the burner, the WMF required only 1/10. This is the single most impressive piece of equipment in my kitchen. Buy one! WMF Perfect Plus 6-1/2-Quart Pressure Cooker

I purchased this item last year. At first I was extremely pleased, but after less than a year the TransTherm base separated from the pot. Since was still under manufacturer's warranty and I had always used it according to manufacturer's instructions, I contacted WMF America. I contacted them several times via email, but only got the run around. Finally I contacted them by phone, only to be told by the customer service rep that this rarely happens and when it does it is rarely covered by their warranty. However, if I wanted to ship it to them, they would be happy to look at it and then tell me they would not cover it. I contacted the CEO of the American division and never received any response at all. How disappointing. They clearly do not excel in customer service and do not stand behind their warranty.
