Maybe a limited audience for this one, but I was hunting a new slow cooker and ended up deciding I needed a pressure cooker. Good price for what I can find.
Good reviews here (aside from an explosion or three)

It actually has high, medium, and low settings jv
This one or the Target one?
Target one.
OK may be a bit confusion when I said the Target one.
I didn't mean the Philip I mean the Bellini one which is $69 on special at the moment.

I bought the Philips one yesterday and it's a great machine.
Thanks, just bought this one!
I've had this one for a few years. It gets used at least 1-2 times a week, every week.
Do you have a link to the Target one? This model looks to have quite a few good reviews on it, including from Choice.
I went through the same discussion a few months ago when the target one was on sale at Harvey Norman. I'm loyal to breville but ended up getting the target one cause of a few reviews I read. The target one is awesome. I'm sure this one is good as well.
I thought you meant the Phillips one.
Link to tbe Philips one please

The Philips one looks good, fast and slow cook unlike the Bellini pressure cooker only.
Been happy so far with the Bellini. Good pressure cooker. Now our daily rice cooker! No need to buy a separate rice cooker, this Bellini does the job well. You may have to reduce the water because rice gets soggy, but it could be tge rice as well.
Is the Bellini pressure cooker only?
Also functions as a rice cooker - it's in the manual
This one comes equal first with the Sunbeam Aviva on Choice reviews.
I have this, use it all the time. Great price
I've had this one for a few years now, easy to use and even easier to clean. I love it.
I end up buying the pro version.
Yeah,I momentarily considered it too.
However I started off looking for ~$50 slow cookers, which then progressed to $150 pressure cookers. I had to draw a line somewhere lol
Do you know what advantage/extra features the pro version has over the BR200?
Yes, it has the Pro name to it. It sound better and I am willing to paid double for it :)
I have one of these. Good device. Recommended.
There was a recall last year, anyone recently purchased through this deal and can confirm its not defected? I was so close to buying one entered in the code but wanted to see the specs, sigh.
They say it's just a faulty lid gasket to prevent leakage.
More information as below.
I can't comment about the unit that's on sale, but I did purchase one with the fauly gasket about 10 months ago and I can confirm that the replacement gasket fixed the leakage.
Yep fixed mine too :)
From memory they sent out a replacement within a week.
Picked it up today. Has a sticker on the top of box saying new top seal fitted or something. So obviously not an issue now
I can vouch for this as well. This gets used every day at my house. Pretty much an essential appliance when you're vegan and there's a lot of beans that need cooking.
How do you know when someone's vegan?
^ underrated comment ^
But yeah have this appliance, use pressure feature mostly and done probably 80 meals so far no issue..
I have this also, great product and a good price :)

This guy said:
"Thank goodness I was cooking bone broth outside. After 30 minutes, I heard uncharacteristic hissing followed by a massive pop. The scalding liquid clearly exploded out about 10 meters away from the machine, Had the machine been inside the explosion could have caused serious injury, not to mention a huge clean up job :("
That's the review that made me buy the phillips
I mentioned that in the deal post.
It is what it is. Want risk free cooking?… Do a hangi :)
Does it do Medium ?
