Hawkins pressure cookers are good in both quality and expense wise.
My wife bought one Hawkins pressure cooker 2 years ago and trust me they are still in that very same conditions and still in good use. Generally all Hawkins appliances are really good by every way and very easy to handle, clean and maintain. You can get them in any size you like and according to the purpose of use and family size. Hawkins cookers can also be used for baking cake and it doesn’t spoil the cookers conditions as they are of very good quality which is usually not seen in many pressure cookers.
The worry of spilling of the liquid content is also taken care properly. And also its very handy. When hot the handle given is non-metallic which stops the transfer of heat and lets you handle it well. My wife is a house wife and she loves it. So I would say buying Hawkins pressure cookers is not a waste of time instead you will be avoiding to worry about it for the next 4-5 years easily if maintained well.
