Top of the String Canner, Great Service, Speedy Delivery
I have only received my Presto 23 quart pressure canner. I am delighted. It is exactly what I wanted and it can also double as a water-bath canner for quarts. The wonderful discount enabled me to purchase this canner. The raised bottom is also safe on glass and ceramic smooth-top ranges. I am looking unabashed to doing a batch of applesauce. I have more than one Presto canner, and have found Presto to be very reliable. My original canner is a Presto Model 7B. It is made from cast aluminum and is still doing a excellent job. I think that the later models probably heat up and cool down faster, and they do have all the latest safety features.

Would Buy Again
The outlay is good, and it performs. But the gaskets are very easy to blow out.

Good wishes, This canner did the job that I needed for it to do, but after the fact for a first time the inside turned a different color. I can't make it make since. I was gratified that I was not using it for anything else, If so I would have sent it back

Works fine fantastic!
Have never canned anything before now- conclude from the manual, easy to figure out. Had a hard time at first keeping the pressure steady- but that's probably due to our gas stove. Canner worked fixedly and effiently - canned 12 pints of chicken - super easy. Even after washing though, still retained a built chicken smell. Maybe that will go away? For price on Amazon, we got a great deal compared to other online and retail shops. Rat on around though for jars and accessories. Much cheaper at Walma**... than online. Happy Canning =)

Wow!!
This pressure canner is staggering. It is VERY large, VERY sturdy, VERY heavy, and it seems to be a quality unit. I've canned in it several times with great results. Having both the dial appraise and the weighted gauge is terrific (especially because I'm at a high elevation). If you have a lot to can at once, this is your canner (I'd consider one size smaller if you can less at one point). If you've never used a pressure canner before, the first time can be a little scary! Just make sure you follow the directions. It is wonderful and I highly recommend it if you love to can - it's worth the money and I'm pretty sure it will last forever. As always, it was easy and near to order this from Amazon and I received it quickly. As a side note, I ordered the Ball canning cookbook at the same age and it is awesome.

My kin-in-law loves us!
We crack this canner to my brother-in-law for his birthday. He has a garden & fruit trees & has already canned jellies! He just loved this largesse.

Lately read the instructions
This is a enormous size for canning. My husband does the fish canning and he loves it because he could can 16 pints at one tempo and when you are doing 100 lbs of fish at a time it went fast.
Just be sure and put vaseline around the lid each everything you use it we only did it the first time and it would stick each time if you did not put the lubricant on. Overall the price is a little high but it is a great way to can diet.

I was very blessed when I got this canner . . .
I have has this canner for about 20 years and it was far from new when I got it. I had always wanted a pressure canner, and doing inquire into on them back then (before the internet) was not easy. I saw "pressure canner and jars for sale" in a local "Penny Saver" type of paper. I tempered to it for several years and then a friend of mine moved to a retirement community and gave me her pressure canner. That is when I learned that ALL-AMERICAN is THE one to get. Hers has a gasket and there are truly times I have had to ask my husband to open it (oiling theh gasket as the ifafter I have processed a load of bread. I only use that one when I have so much food to process that I am using both canners. The ALL-AMERICAN is so safe, and so simple. Plus they continue to be thicker than many other pressure canners (set side by side the weight against the 23 qt. Presto for instance). If you are serious about canning then get this serious canner. And, you don't need to buy an enameled water bath canner if you have this because you can use it without pressure too--using steam which is easier and safer than having to practise with a large pot of boiling on top of a stove.

Elevated Purchase
Darling this cooker. It pressurizes quickly and reliably, has lots of room for my purpose. I've canned green beans and albacore tuna so far, and I dear one it. I was a little concerned about the lack of a gasket, but that was also a selling point. Other than the extra effort needed to certify the lid is level on the cooker, gasket-less pressur cookers are the way to go. My previous cooker did not have a pressure gauge. It is an advantage being able to monitor the pressure, I don't discern how I canned without one all these years.
