For a first steaming they seem to be better than my set. Mine were perfectly steam tight, but a little stiff as if the O ring was slightly oversize. They seem to be getting better as they are run in, and I am sure that they will be requiring less steam, so that instead there is extra pressure which will more than compensate for the extra stiffness.
