Hawkins 12 Litre Classic Pressure Cooker, Best Inner Lid Cooker, Big Pressure Cooker, Silver (CL12)

I’ve been using the Hawkins Aluminium 3 Litre Classic Pressure Cooker (Tall Design) for a few months now, and it works exactly as expected. The tall design is perfect for cooking soups, dals, and small family meals without worrying about spills. The inner lid safety mechanism gives me peace of mind, and it builds pressure quickly.The aluminium body heats evenly, and the build feels sturdy — typical Hawkins quality. I also appreciate how easy it is to clean.If you're looking for a dependable, no-nonsense pressure cooker for everyday cooking, this one is a great choice.

Everything is good except that I ordered a small one.

The lid on this pressure cooker is incredibly frustrating to use. It doesn’t align smoothly and often gets stuck, making it a hassle every time I try to open or close it. For something labeled as “classic” and “best cooker,” I expected better quality and ease of use. The cooking performance is okay, but the poor lid design overshadows everything else.

Absolutely love this pressure cooker! It’s sturdy, well-built, and cooks food faster and more evenly than my old one. The lid locks securely, and the safety features give me peace of mind while cooking. Perfect for making dals, rice, stews, and even one-pot meals. Easy to clean and looks great in the kitchen too. Definitely a great value for the price , highly recommend!

Its a good quality. But the pressure is not working anymore. I don't know why.

Es mi mejor ayudante en la cocina.

The pressure cooker is very good — it cooks meat in just a few minutes and really saves time. However, you need to be careful not to leave it on the stove for too long, as it can cause burning. For your safety, there's a small hole under the handle, which I believe is designed to release pressure if the cooker overheats or becomes over-pressurized. The hole is initially sealed with some material that opens when needed.That said, the inner surface is a bit sticky, so you have to use it carefully to avoid food sticking.I ended up returning it after three months, and Amazon refunded me the full amount. I'm very happy with their customer service — they made the return process easy and stress-free.
