Very helpful!! My lid fell off the counter and the venting thing came off, and yes, I thought I had broken it. I'll give this a try! Thank you!

[@brianapatterson6179]

Wow! I was worried that I broke it. Thank you!

[@michekids]

Thanks, mine got lost and now I need to get a new one but appreciate your help

[@Barnee1897]

Thank you! I’ve been trying to find out how to remove the valve for cleaning.

[@jjj1981jj]

Mine won’t go back on securely. It’s all wobbly and just pops off. I don’t think this will work

[@queenrae91]

Did you get it to work? Mine is the same way.

[@jjj1981jj]

@@queenrae91 apparently that’s how it supposed to be. All loose like that. The pressure will create a seal and tighten it while cooking.

[@queenrae91]

@@jjj1981jj thank you for responding. And I guess you’re right. Because mine is loose but it still works.

[@jjj1981jj]

@@queenrae91 while I have your attention, what is your fave thing to make in the instapot?

[@alins4313]

​@@jjj1981jjI'm glad I found your comment. I was about to give up and throw everything into the oven. It's just too out here for all that! I'm a bit nervous trying this thing for the first time. I tell my kids to never believe everything they read on the internet, yet here I go! 😂 I hope you're right!

Oh god I’m using it tonight. Hope I don’t put a hole in my ceiling

[@ninadillingham7574]

Can still use without the release knob?

[@yeetghostrat]

You cannot pressure cook without the nob. Doing so will turn the machine into a bomb. Many people have been killed by faulty pressure cookers

[@LeahGrabowski]

Thanks! Wanted to make sure I didn’t break my Instant Pot. The valve came off when I was cleaning the top 😬

[@caseymajor4803]

Was it ok? Lol

[@jeffh3376]

Pressure seal missing

[@MarissaLopez-bp4qr]

Is it supposed to be kind of loose?

[@chancetolbert4852]

Any response to this?

[@checor]

yes it's kind of loose

[@chancetolbert4852]

Mine feels really loose in that is that normal?

[@DIYLifeTech]

Yes I find it’s usually quite loose

[@chancetolbert4852]

@@DIYLifeTech shortly after asking it sealed up properly I was concerned. Thanks!

What is that valve called? How to replace?
