  • A good, solid Keeper of a small everyday pressure cooker
Size: 3 L Color: Black
I like the 3 L size: it heats up and gets to pressure fast - especially on my induction cook top - and it is convenient for cooking smaller recipes. I like that it is non-stick, anodized, and light-weight. I like that the sealing gasket is not exposed to food agents that might work to break it down. I like that parts are replaceable. It seems engineered to be safe, efficient, and affordable - and it looks nice. I like that it is easy to use: in the several times I've used it already, I've not had a problem opening or closing the lid, it has been easy to regulate the pressure, and food has turned out as I expected. The Manual is thorough, and it is essential to read it before using the pot for pressure cooking. With my induction cook top, it is possible to set a time and temperature program for heating up, venting, and consistent pressure cooking - and to walk away - as you would with an electric pressure cooker. (I recommend this process.) I doubt I'll use the Indian recipes in the manual, but there is a glossary and the recipes are educational. People have complained about the pressure valve; it is designed to melt if your pot gets dry and/or too hot. I have been sure to have enough water in the pot and to not let too much steam escape (the weight on the pressure relief valve helps to remind); it is for safe operation. There are 7 large holes in the pressure relief valve stem, and the chances of it ever plugging up completely are not likely - and it is easy to check and clean. The first time I used this Hawkins I was surprised at how fast it was and how little steam escaped from anywhere. It bears watching, though, and one can't be casual using it. That said, it's a Keeper, for sure. ... show more

  • Good size for one person
Size: 3 L Color: Black
I've had Futura 1.5 liter for about 10 years and like it but it is so small that sometimes things like rice or dry beans will foam up and blow out the top. (1 cup rice/2 cups water) I bought this Hawkins 3 liter to avoid that, with same amount of food in it. It solved the problem. One thing I like more about the Hawkins is that the lid is a little easier to get in and out. Less fiddling with the tight fit of the Futura. Still will use the Futura for camping though. I have the induction model and it seems to take longer to get to pressure than the Futura on a regular stove, but not a big problem. Just put it on and go do something, but stay in earshot to hear when the first blast of steam comes out. They call it a whistle but it is so sudden and loud that it makes me jump. I turn the induction hotplate burner down to 275 and it seems about right to get a blast every minute or so. ... show more

  • Forget the crock pot
Size: 3 L Color: Black
I had been looking for just a plain ole pressure cooker not an Instapot type cooker. I don’t need all the fancy electronics. Im just a simple man. This was perfect. I’ve cooked chicken to add to a soup and quesadillas. I cooked country pork ribs, beef short ribs, and adobo. Each meal took only about 30-40 mins to get perfectly tenderized and flavor infused meat. Fits more than you would expect. ... show more

  • Nice buy!
Size: 3 L Color: Black
Mainly bought it as needed an induction cooker. Works well, used it twice since I bought it. It's the perfect size for a couple/ small family and heats up quickly. No leakage of water. Has the same black coating on the inside as well which makes it smooth and easy to clean unlike the other cookers. The cooker is heavy specially considering that it's a small size, guessing due to it being induction based. On the whole, a nice buy! Note: The rubber gasket goes on the outside and the lid closes on being inserted inwards. Takes a while to get used to. Opening it also is a little cumbersome but guess would get a hang of it through repeated usage. ... show more

  • Top quality
Size: 3 L Color: Black
I've been using this on a boat, in a marine (salt water) environment for six months. The only corrosion I've seen is inside of the weight, and is not yet a problem. The rest of the finish is like new and very non-stick. The shape is very good for use on a moving vessel. It contains the food well. Cleaning under the lip is awkward, as is getting the last bit of food out. These minor inconveniences are an acceptable engineering compromise. The sealing system is foolproof, simple and reliable. I have to tell you. This is a great addition to the galley. It has worked-out exceedingly well. ... show more
