Hawkins Classic Pressure Cookers (5 Litre)

Very good. A well made, solid and more traditional robust design. This 2L version is great for one or two people. Lid closing and opening is a little fiddly but once you get used to it, it's easy.

Bought it a couple of days ago for some quick cooking like lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans or rice. Works fine and is value for money. Noise level is minimal but don’t be alarmed but the sudden release of steam. It’s normal for this type of cooker to release steam at once after pressure is built inside. The cooker itself is lightweight and easy to use. Lid function can be a bit tricky for someone new to thus type of cooker and the lid nay seem to not fit in. There’s a trick to it. You have to insert the lid at a diagonal angle and rotate to lock it. Same while opening. Overall satisfied 👍🏻

This pressure cooker turned out to be a complete safety hazard. After facing issues, I contacted customer support and shared pictures and videos of the problem. Their team confirmed that the safety wall/component was broken, even though the product is still under warranty. The most horrifying part is that the cooker released tiny metal particles into the food during cooking. These particles were so small that they were not even visible to the naked eye. My children unknowingly ate that food before we realized something was seriously wrong. This is not just a quality issue — this is a serious safety concern. A pressure cooker contaminating food with metal particles should never happen. On top of that, the customer support experience was terrible. First, they asked me to send photos and videos. I did. Then they said the format was not working and asked me to send everything again in another format. I did that too. The third time, they again claimed the format was not working and asked me to resend everything yet again. I refused because the files were clearly working on my side. Suddenly they responded saying, “Yes, now it’s working.” What kind of customer support is this? Instead of helping customers with a dangerous product issue, they kept wasting my time repeating the same excuses. I would strongly warn families, especially those with kids, to stay away from this product. No customer should have to worry about metal contamination in their food from a pressure cooker. Extremely disappointed with both the product quality and the company’s safety standards.

Nice

Great product

Nice pressure cooker but a bit small I bought two for a choice and have kept the larger one

Love this. The lid is a little tricky at first but it's very easy once you suss out how to use it. It's actually very well engineered and works perfectly. I wanted it mainly for hard-boiled eggs and it works a treat. I bought the 1.5 litre. The eggs took 10 minutes. 5 minutes to get up to temperature and 5 minutes to cook. The shells are so easy to peel after pressure cooking. So glad I bought this.

Great for small amounts of food. You may get a bit of a surprise first time you use it when the pressure valve blows off. This is natural and lets you know when to lower the temperature. The new style of valve doesn't rock like the old style. After a couple uses you will love it. Hawkins products are excellent quality.
