BUYER BEWARE!! When I saw the bad reviews re: the noise coming from the pressure cooker I assumed it was coming from people who were inexperienced with pressure cookers. I have used and been around pressure cookers all my life. They make a whistling noise, it's normal. The noises coming from this pressure cooker were NOT normal!!!! I have never in my life heard anything so loud and scary. Read the reviews and take note...THIS IS NOT THE ONE FOR YOU!!! I tried to return but realized that the date to return had already passed. From all the negative reviews this can't be a coincidence or defective one. This pressure cooker just sucks. DO NOT BUY!!!!

I can't say enough good things about this product. I bought 6.5 liters, so I can cook in bulk and have it served for a few days. 1. The quality of the pressurized cook is excellent - mutton meat gets tenderized after about 6-7 whistles. 2. While cooking dal under pressure, it doesn't spurt out from the top, giving out clean whistles, unlike the prestige apple cooker that I own. 3. As the material of the cooker is made of hard anodized aluminium, I can easily saute and fry onions, tomatoes in it, for creating the initial curry paste, instead of using a separate frying saucepan. 4. Due to its design, the Hawkins cook at much higher pressures than the prestige series of cookers, and thus the food gets cooked/boiled/tenderized much more quickly and easily, saving you time and gas. Will update on the longevity of this product in the future.

There have been some reviewers who have complained because this pressure cooker is different from all of the others on the market in the way it opens and closes. While I agree that that does take some getting used to, it doesn't require a brain surgeon's intellect. I think it's ingenious. The pressure inside helps to create a pressure seal, and the construction is superb. If I were hypercritical, and I often am, I'd complain that the safety valve under the handle makes cleaning the lid a little more onerous, but it's also a safety factor since were the valve to fail, the handle would act as a shield, and the shape of the pot, with the curved top, makes cleaning it a little more difficult, but once again I must say that these are really trivial complaints. I own a large Fissler pressure cooker which Consumers Reports recommends as the best they've tested, and it is excellent, but I wanted a small one for small quantities of stuff, like stone ground oats for my morning breakfast, which take forever to cook even after soaking overnight. I can easily cook them in 20 minutes using this cooker. It really is, in my opinion, a well made and excellent choice.

The cooker is risky as I was just keeping it off the flame and it just got open and all the pressure just burst out. Thankfully I saved myself but it is too dangerous. Also, Because of the shape of the cooker it is difficult to clean as you can't see much on the upper side.

I don't review much, for which I apologize, but I took a chance on a 3 liter anodized Hawkins stovetop pressure cooker despite a few worrying reviews and remarks in reviews, and after using this to cook family-of-four sized portions of dried giant white beans, chickpeas and french lentils I wanted to circle back and make a couple of points. The most important is the idea, expressed in a couple of reviews, that it is impossible to put the lid on and take the lid off without dunking the lid into your food preparation. Without calling anyone out by name, I strongly suspect that reviewers who had this experience didn't bother to read the instructions. At least the model of cooker I bought is ingeniously designed, with an oval shaped opening. When you hold the lid handle at 90 degrees (perpendicular) to the base handle it is very easy to insert the lid into the pot. I would say at most it needs to dip down three-quarters of an inch into the pot, which won't bring it anywhere near your food unless you have majorly overfilled it. The second "issue" which I read about in at least one review, is the idea that the lid will fall into the food when you go to open the pot. Really, both of these issues stem from the sensible but unusual design of this cooker, which is that the lid, rather than resting on top of the pot as it would in a normal saucepan, fits under the rim of the lid. What this means is that the pressure you build up while cooking doesn't force the lid off the pot; in fact it enhances the seal between the pot and the lid. Intuitively this seems to me a much safer way to cook under pressure. However, it does take a very little bit of getting use to; if you release the lid once you are done cooking, after the pressure has diminished, it will fall into the food if you let go of the handle. Because the lid IS inside the pot. However, all you have to do is keeping holding the handle as you turn it perpendicular to slide it out, using exactly the opposite of the motion you used to put the lid on. It isn't exactly brain surgery. I like to eat beans and grains, but in summer I find chickpeas can take two hours or more to cook on the stovetop even after a good overnight soaking, and having the burner on that long doesn't help with the summer temperatures! I'm now cooking them in this Hawkins cooker in less than fifteen minutes. I can't detect any loss of texture or any other difference in the finished result, and I'm very pleased I bought this for quick smaller pressure-cooker jobs. I have a giant pressure cooker for canning, but there is no way I can be bothered to get it out every time I want to make a little hummus. This is a worthy and useful addition to my kitchen arsenal that is going to continue to get a lot of use.

This little pressure cooker is great for perfect rice and does fine with steel cut oats, those little potatoes, and small batches of dried beans even - if you compare to the price of one of those rice cookers, it's a steal, and frankly, those electronically controlled ones are overly complicated and expensive - and are huge pain to store too. As others have rightfully mentioned, you do have to pay attention to keeping the seal clean, and that you latch the lid with the seal seats evenly all around the top or there's a slight leak preventing it from coming up to pressure. It's amazing how fast, easy, and great rice comes out too...
