Prestige Deluxe 10 Ltr Aluminium Pressure Cooker

The Prestige Deluxe 10 Ltr is a cornerstone appliance for the traditional Indian joint family kitchen. Launched in 2020 by the TTK Group, a brand with decades of heritage in India, this model addresses the need for high-volume cooking without compromising on speed. In an Indian household, where dal-roti or rice-sambar is a daily ritual, this 10L cooker significantly reduces the time spent over a hot gas flame; what takes nearly an hour in an open pot is ready in just 15-20 minutes under pressure. The body is crafted from polished virgin aluminium, which is the most popular material in India (commanding over 60% of the market) due to its lightweight nature and excellent thermal conductivity. While it is lightweight at 2.1 kg, it is robust enough to handle the high pressure required for tough grains like rajma (kidney beans) and chole (chickpeas). The standard lid design is intuitive for those used to the 'whistle-count' method of Indian cooking, and the pressure indicator adds a layer of modern safety by showing when it is safe to open. It features sturdy bakelite handles that stay cool on 3-burner or 4-burner LPG gas stoves, which remain the primary heat source for 70% of Indian homes. Given its size, it is perfect for preparing large quantities of biryani or boiling 2-3 kg of potatoes at once. Backed by a 5-year product warranty and Prestige's extensive service network across India, this cooker is a reliable investment for big households, though users should note it is not compatible with induction cooktops and requires manual cleaning to maintain its silver polish.
