Hawkins 5 Litre Pressure Cooker, Stainless Steel Cooker, Induction Cooker, Silver (HSS50)

An excellent pressure-cooker. A far better sealing system than those that use steam pressure to inflate the gasket.

I’ve been using this pressure cooker regularly for over a year, and I can confidently say Howkins is a solid brand, and this model lives up to that reputation. I cook everything from lentils and beans to chicken, mutton, and more, and it gets the job done quickly and efficiently. As some have mentioned, the sound of the whistle might startle kids or pets, but that’s just a common feature with pressure cookers, not specific to this one. My only complaint, which others have also pointed out, is that the edge of the cooker is quite sharp. If you're hand-washing it, be careful, as I got a couple of minor cuts in the beginning. Other than that, it’s a great product for fast cooking.

Yes a very good product, it's small but highly recommended

Great thank you

Very good pressure cooker. Simple to use.

Please exercise caution. The stainless steel coating peels off, which may be dangerous to health if it contaminates food. The seller or manufacturer should urgently review this product and suspend sales until a proper evaluation is completed. I hope this issue is limited to the single item we purchased.

Pressurised well, happy with purchases.

If you have small children or pet's don't buy this, every now and then when you'r cooking it would disperse out a lot of steam which will scare your little one's and pets if you have any.

Great cooker works great for indian cooking

Good product for cooking lentils, would recommend everyone

I received a garbage and used thing probably used for years. In invoice there was 120 $ for shipping.Just a question, did they work for 120$ shipping and handling?

Good

La marque indienne HAWKINS produit des autocuiseurs qui utilisent une pression d'1 bar (différentiel entre pression atmosphérique et celle interne). En conséquence, l'inox utilisé fait de 2 à 3mm d'épaisseur. De la sorte (1 bar), la température interne atteint 122°C ce qui permet une cuisson plus rapide (si l'on ne tient pas compte du temps de montée en vapeur). Les autocuiseurs d'autres marques se cantonnent à une pression de 0,6 à 0,7 bar... soit 110 à 115°C interne. Ces autocuiseurs existent déjà depuis 1946 et étaient commercialisés sous la marque Miss Mary aux Etats-Unis. Ici, il s'agit d'une version en inox compatible induction. A noter aussi que ces autocuiseurs n'utilisent pas un bouchon-tourniquet pour laisser échapper la vapeur, mais un poids qui se soulève . Lors de la première utilisation on est même surpris de la puissance du bruit provoqué par la sortie de vapeur. Pour l'annecdote, SEB n'a commencé à produire ses cocotte-minute qu'à partir de 1953
