People seem to be having a lot of trouble finding the right size for their cooker, before you order go to the Fagor website [...] and look up your particular model, then click on teh "Replacement Parts" link in the lower right corner. It gives a detailed explanation of which one you need.

I purchased this because the one that came with mine got damaged suddetly, I'm not sure how because I haven't had it long. I inspect it before each use though and noticed a big chunk of it missing. Hopefully I'll have better luck this time around.

My Fagor pressure cooker lid measures 10 inches in diameter. I ordered this gasket, which states it is for 10" diameter lids. However, the gasket itself measures 10 3/4". It is too big for the 10" lid.

Not all Fagor Splendid models use a 10" gasket. I bought this based on that review statement and it is entirely incorrect. My 6 Quart Splendid model uses a 9 inch gasket, not 10".

Turn you lid upside down and measure the outside diameter of the metal, not the gasket. If it's about 9 3/4", then a 10" gasket WILL NOT FIT. You need the 9" gasket instead.

I love my Fagor Pressure Cooker - and when I needed a new silicone gasket, they were readily available - The P* Cooker is very versatile, can cook a variety of foods, but I especially like "stewing" fruits', my favourite is pears, 5 pears, cut in halves', cut a whole lemon into thin slices, including the skin, add some ground cinnamon & ground cloves, 4 sachets' of Stevia* - absolutely delicious

I think the reason people are being sent the wrong size gasket is related to the problem in the description. I have a 6 quart Spendid and it takes a 10" gasket -- as do all Splendid models, except for the 2 in 1. So, this gasket is not only for 8 and 10 quart single models, but for others, as well. Be sure to check the fagor USA site before you order a gasket, and be sure to get two. Example: My dog had surgery so I needed to pressure cook him some meat so it would be soft. Stupidly, I left the lid next to the cooker on the stove and burned the gasket. I did not have a spare. This is the only time in my life I ever put a lid on the grate of my stove - I know better. So I had to cook the meat for like 6 hours. When this burns, it turns into white powder, by the way.

This item is a replacement gasket. Per the other reviewer, if you received a 12 in gasket instead of a 10 in, then send the wrong item back. I have ordered three gaskets in the past three years and I have received the correct item. Please note that you should replace your gasket at least once a year to ensure proper seal.

The issue is one of sizing. There is a 9" seal and a 10" seal. Measuring the lid does not give you a clear indication of which to use. I.D? O.D? Bought the 9" which was wrong. Once I got thiis....Great replacement seal

My 10 quart Fagor pressure cooker is still new.
My past experience with pressure cookers caused
me to order a spare ring/gasket. Very happy
to find a source on Amazon.

It looked to me like this size gasket would work on all Fagor pressure cookers smaller than 8-10 quarts, but not so. Mine turned out to use a NINE inch gasket, which isn't available here. I wound up getting one from another source.

I have the Fagor pressure fryer model and mistakenly ordered this gasket. The correct gasket for the pressure fryer (Pro-Selections, Pressure Magic and Magic Chef models) is NOT a hoop but rather an open ended length of silicon tubing. I was not able to find it on Amazon. Amazon of course handled the return without hassle.
