Where these two actually differ
- We flag Gasket and sealing material degradation and Stainless steel corrosion and leaching under acidic or salt conditions on the Presto and not on the T-fal.
- We flag Silicone gasket degradation and odor, Stainless steel corrosion and pitting and Pressure release valve blockage on the T-fal and not on the Presto.
- The Presto is stainless steel body; no nonstick coating where the T-fal is stainless steel body, no nonstick coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
