1. Recall Summary
Tempo International (USA) Inc., in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), has issued a recall for Ambiano electric pressure cookers. The recall was published on October 9, 2025. The firm has received 11 reports of incidents in which the contents of the pressure cooker were expelled under pressure, including eight reports of severe burn injuries. The products were sold exclusively at ALDI retail stores nationwide between January 2016 and December 2019 for approximately $40. The units were manufactured in China.

2. Affected Products
This recall involves all Ambiano electric pressure cookers with the following model numbers: 93550 (KY-318B), 96775 (KY-318A), and 98527 (6L-PC). The electric pressure cookers and inner cooker pots are either six-quart or eight-quart capacity. The brand name “Ambiano” appears on the front of each unit and on its permanent on-product label. The model number is also printed on the permanent product label located on the bottom of the cooker. Approximately 46,660 units are affected by this recall.

3. Hazard Information
The hazard associated with this product is that the pressure-cooker lid can be opened before sufficient steam pressure has been released. This can cause hot contents to escape from the cooker, posing a risk of burn injuries to consumers. The firm has received 11 reports of incidents involving the contents being expelled under pressure, which includes eight reports of severe burn injuries.

4. Consumer Action Required
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled pressure cookers. Consumers have two options for action:
– Option A: Return the fully intact pressure cooker to any ALDI retail location for a full refund.
– Option B: Submit a photo of the pressure cooker with the unplugged power cord cut, along with a photo showing the model number and date code, via email to Tempo at serviceusa@tempo.org.

5. Official Remedy
The official remedy for this recall is a refund. Consumers who return the intact unit to an ALDI store will receive a full refund at the point of return. Consumers who choose the photo submission method will receive a refund after Tempo processes the submitted documentation.
