Johnson // Becker, PLLC Files Another Burn Injury Lawsuit Against Maker of Instant Pot Pressure Cooker

The lawsuit alleges that Instant Brands, Inc., the manufacturer of the Instant Pot pressure cookers, has misrepresented the safety of its pressure cookers. 

ST. PAUL, Minn., June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson // Becker, PLLC is a nationwide products liability law firm with experience representing victims of pressure cooker explosions.  The firm has represented over 500 clients who have been severely burned by exploding pressure cookers designed and sold by numerous manufacturers. 

Johnson//Becker filed this Complaint on behalf of Ms. Amber Durham, a resident of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, alleging that Instant Brands, Inc., the manufacturer of the Instant Pot pressure cooker, misrepresented the safety of its pressure cookers.

Ms. Durham's pressure cooker exploded on December 26, 2021.  As a result of the explosion, Ms. Durham sustained severe burn injuries.   According to the Complaint, the Instant Pot is marketed as having "safety mechanisms" which are supposed to prevent the unit from both building pressure if the lid is not closed properly, as well as the lid from being removed until all the pressure is released.  However, Ms. Durham alleges that the Instant Pot pressure cookers contain defects which allow unsuspecting consumers to remove the lid while the cooker is still under pressure causing the scalding hot contents to be projected from the unit.

This suit is filed by Michael K. Johnson, Kenneth W. Pearson and Adam J. Kress of Johnson // Becker, PLLC. Michael K. Johnson is a founding partner of Johnson // Becker, PLLC. Michael, Ken and Adam exclusively handle injury cases, with an emphasis on national products liability litigation, including cases involving burn injuries from defective products.
