All our birds and their own chicks have flown the nest so our big pots and pans are of little use to us. We were unaware that pressure cookers are available in small sizes until we watched an Indian recipe video. Locating a supplier in Canada met with no success but Amazon.com offered this product Hawkins Classic Aluminum 2.0 Litre Pressure Cookerin a wide range of sizes and we selected the two litre cooker which turned out to be ideal. The 2 litre cooker allows ample servings for two persons and we use it for all sorts of cuisines and recipes, Indian, European, Chinese, and North American especially. Just a couple of drawbacks for aging hands and eyes the method of fitting and sealing the lid requires some practice, and the handle-locking device gets very hot and can deliver a nasty burn if you forget to use a mitt. Pressurizing and safety devices work well and the cooker is a breeze to clean and care for. We are delighted with results so far.

Hawkins Pressure Cooker is really good. I had a "Prestige" earlier in which the washer broke and got misplaced. So, I bought this one. Prestige was leaking out water every time it whistled and made a mess of everything. Hawkins never leaks, when it whistles. And it cooks everything thoroughly. So, it does what it is supposed to do damn well. And that is all that is needed. The only thing about Hawkins that is a little bit of a problem is opening the lid and closing it. It can sometimes be frustratingly difficult to do that. But, this is just a minor trick that you need to get used to. So, everything considered, this is a great pressure cooker.

Best Deals for Hawkins Classic Aluminum Pressure Cookers

I have 5 pressure cookers, ranging from 12 liter to 6, 4, 3 (one that cooks at 12lbs of pressure instead of 15) and one that is 1.5 L. The makers arePresto, Mirro, Fagor, and Hawkins, some have the pressure Fob and some don't. The 3L that cooks at 12lbs of pressure is useless in my opinion, it should cook at 15. I did not know that when I bought it, so when it did not cook as fast as the other pressure cookers, I called the manufacturer and only then found out that it cooks at 12 instead of 15lbs. I have a Hawkins 1.5L and absolutely love it, its great for one or two people. So I bought the 3L and its just a wonderful. In my opinion, anyone that spends more for their pressure cooker for what you can purchase a Hawkins for, is wasting their hard earned money. Also, I use my cookers at least three times a week, so I have a very good understanding of pressure cookers, and what works and what doesn't. I really like mine, and I hope you will too. BTW, I have no affilitation with them what so ever. Randy

Honest reviews on Hawkins Classic Aluminum Pressure Cookers

This is not the first Hawkins product that I have purchased but this one is fast. The one think that caught me by surprise was how the pressure works and the sound it makes during cooking. I was not accustomed to hearing that so it scared me at first because I thought it was going to blow the weight or gasket, instead of a constant whistle it made short burst of steam. Overall I am satisfied with this product.
