I'm a fan of pressure cookers, although I use old school pressure cookers.
I like Hawkins pressure cookers. It's an old school British design that is still made and used ostensibly in India, yet is just a great design that has stood the test of time.
The main design feature of a Hawkins pressure cooker is its oval shaped lid which fits INSIDE the body of the cooker. The cooking pressure keeps the lid on, and the seals don't wear out like an outside fitting lid does. A simple weighted valve regulates pressure.
A very simple and sturdy design.
In Australia, and I guess everywhere in the Western World, you find them at Indian grocery stores.
