Pros

Splendid has an attractive price compare to other brand in the same size

The pressure cooker is very easy to use - one pressure setting and no more removable thing on top that jiggles (which can easily be misplaced or lost).

Clean-up was easy. Just wash out with warm water and mild detergent.
