Have four Hawkins pressure cookers and have to say they are excellent value for money! Significantly cheaper than comparable brands and with one unique safety feature that no others I have seen. (The lid seals from inside the cooker instead of on the outside. So the greater the pressure the safer the lid seal!.
[...]Makes superb rice, Dahl, soups and casseroles. (to name but a few dishes that can be made super quickly with a pressure cooker.

I bought the aluminium version of this pot and decided to upgrade not longer after. I love cooking with this. So easy!

Just received the HSS3T Hawkins 3 Liter Tall Pressure Cooker today. Already tried it out on two test runs and it worked flawlessly. I am writing this review to dilute some of the negative reviews I have read.
The 3 liter ‘tall’ is a good choice if this is your first pressure cooker. It is a great size for small and large meals for 2 people. We started with the 2 liter size but honestly the 3 liter ‘tall’ is more versatile.
As for the negative reviews. I realize that there can be manufacturing defects in any product and a flawed unit is not what a customer paid for. Buy from Amazon direct or any vendor that will accept returns free of charge in case this happens.
Hawkins Pressure Cookers are a unique and well designed piece of equipment. The design of the lid is absolute genius and very safe to use!
“The pot’s edge makes the cooker hard to clean.” It is not hard to clean.
“The safety valve ‘blows out’ making a mess.” Well that is what it is supposed to do when you run out of liquid and/or the interior temperature rises well above the designed 250 F degrees (122 C). Operator error.
Order an extra seal and safety valve to have on hand. The same safety valve fits all Hawkins Pressure Cookers and are easily replaced. The seals are dedicated to the size of the lid.
“The lid does not seal and leaks.” You have to be accurate in centering the lid when closing up the cooker. Practice makes perfect.
“Cannot build pressure – steam leaks at the vent weight.” Remove and rinse the vent weight and check that the vent tube is clear every time the cooker is washed. Check the inside of the vent weight for food particles. There is no way the vent weight and vent tube cannot maintain the 15 psi (103 kPa) pressure as designed.
“The cooker ‘whistles’ too much or is too sensitive to vibrations.” Turn down the heat after the initial blast. A soft ‘hiss’ is all that is needed to maintain pressure.
“Count the number of whistles to time the cooking.” You cannot count the number of whistles to time the cooking. Use a timer.
“Hard to remove the lid without the lid touching the food.” There is too much in the cooker. The pressure cooker should only be 2/3’s full max. Read the instructions.
“Rust.” 18/8 stainless steel is perfectly acceptable for food safe cookware. After washing the cooker, we towel off the pot and lid, put the lid in the pot loose and store it in the cabinet. We have never seen any rust on our cookers.
“Food burns.” Well it is stainless steel, we use alot of cast iron around here. I’ll give that complaint 3 stars. The complaint is justified as the bottom disc is a little small relative to the cooker diameter.
“Inside of pot turns black.” Again, this is a ‘patina’ on the metal. It is not a chemical reaction in the metal. Easily removed with a ‘non-abrasive’ cleanser every now and then.
“Loose handle.” The handle is loose on purpose to assist in centering the lid. It is part of the design.
Well that is about it. Unless you received a unit with obvious manufacturing defects or there has been some damage in shipping, you probably have one of the best made pressure cookers on the market. Enjoy!

My mom just loved it.
[...]Price is little high otherwise it’s perfect for gas & induction.

On time delivery and nice quality.
[...]The product is Good and workshop well on induction based cooktops. The only thing to be taken care of is, since it is steel, it gets heatet quickly and whistles might be often than a traditional aluminium cooker, But after using couple of times you get an Idea of how this needs to be used. Also, food can burn easily in steel based cooker so it might need a little extra attention initially to accustom the usage of cooker.
Some initial hassle for stainless steel cooker as it is different from aluminium but product wise no complaints.

Super Teil!
Lowtech die sehr gut funktioniert wenn man sich darauf einlässt.
Das Kochverfahren ist das Gleiche wie bei 300€ Töpfen und ich finde es braucht keine Digitalanzeige auf dem Deckel, wenn man einen kleinen Timer/Küchenwecker besitzt.
Die kleinen Größen von Dampfdrucktopf sind toll:
3l (tall/hoch) finde ich die bessere Größe als 2l… aber das kommt auch immer darauf an was und welche Mengen man kochen will… (2l Topf ist z.B. für kleine Mengen Kartoffeln super)
Bedenke nur: der Topf sollte nur bis zu 2/3 genutzt werden…
Kichererbsen (nur 1/2 voll) erzeugen einen “Schaum” der gerne etwas aus dem Ventil spradelt wenn man den Topf zu voll macht; aber mehr passiert auch nicht… man lernt schnell nach dem ersten Anheben und “Abblasen/Pfeifen”des Gewichts, durch den entstehenden Dampfdruck, die Temperatur herunter zu regeln… und dann ist auch alles gut und der Kochprozess findet ruhig unter nur leichtem “zischeln” statt.
Nach der der zweiten, dritten Nutzung hat man schnell heraus welche niedere Temperatureinstellung des Herds die beste ist, daß sich der Druck hält aber nicht zu viel ist (weil sonst wieder von Zeit zu zeit das Gewicht kurz hochgeht und abbläst/pfeift…)
Die Edelstahlversion find ich toller als Alu… auch weil:
In der Gebrauchsanweisung steht zwar: nicht Spühlmaschienengeeignet… aber bei der Edelstahlversion sehe ich da nichts was dagegen spricht… sollte der bakelitähnliche Griff das in ein paar Jahren nicht vertragen… gibt es alles in dem Indischen Ersatzteilkatalog ;)
Hatte ihn ca. 30 mal in der Spülmaschine… ohne Dichtung und Dampfgewicht (Handreinigung)… und das funktioniert gut.
Super für kleine Mengen Gulasch (600g-1kg) im 3Liter Topf; lässt sich im Edelstahltopf auch gut anbraten.
Mein neuer Favorit: Kichererbsen; über Nacht einweichen dann ca. 20 Minuten im Hawkins.
Wichtig ist nach dem ersten kompletten Druckaufbau (Pfeife/Gewicht lässt Druck ab) die Temperatur/Flamme runterdrehen.
Grundsätzlich: Da ich keine Großfamilie bin, hab ich die beiden 2 und 3 Liter Hawkins Töpfe lieber in Gebrauch als meinen großen 7l Fissler…
Also für 1-2 Personen (auch mal 3) von den Mengen her ideal.
Wenn Du Dich tiefer in das Thema “einarbeiten” willst… schau dir mal auf Y..tube indische Beitrage an… sehr interessant und auch ein bisschen zum schmunzeln…
Ein kleines Kochbüchlein/ Ersatzteilliste in Englisch/Hindi liegt bei…
Made in India… super! :)

I bought this to use on my sailboat. Space is at a premium so the compact size of this pressure cooker is a real bonus. Excellent build quality too

I’ve no points for dislikes, as I’m veteran user of Hawkin’s cooker. Previously we had aluminium cookers, and suddenly one good day wifey asked to get the stainless steel one. So we had our eyes set upon two distinct beands namely Hawkins & Vinod. Finally, went with our trusted old brand Hawkins. It’s pricier than almost all other ones, but the quality is impeccable. Cleaning is more easy compared to aluminium ones. Will buy 2 to 3 more & keep stocked, as the prices soar each year by 10% almost. The base is thickest than all and it oozes premiumness. No stickiness & feels extra durable. Size 3 ltrs is enough for our small family of five. Easy to use just like any other conventional cooker.
