Presto vs All American
I couldn't come to a decision between the Presto or the All American, so I bought them both, intending to send one back. At the time I placed my order, Amazon was not selling the All American 921, so I had to state of affairs it from an outside vendor. I have only done boiling water bath canning before and had some fears of pressure canners. Reading the negating reviews of the Presto unit, where reviewers describe pressure gauges fly across the kitchen, etc., did not help. The All American canner is built like a tank, I have much more coolness in it than the Presto. I didn't actually use the Presto canner before deciding to send it back, so can't speak to its performance, but had I been able to parallel these two units side by side in a store, I definitely would have chosen the All American (and saved the twelve dollars it cost to return the Presto canner to Amazon).
if you can...
This is an bar product for canning. We have previously owned a presto until it wore out and will likely do the same with the next. Large size lets you use many jars 1qt or larger.

It arrived as promised. Worked best. Fit 7 quarts.
It canned! What else can you say.
Loving my canner!
After reading reviews here I incontestable to purchase the Presto 23 qt pressure canner. I am thrilled with it! I have been canning so many different foods and it had been fun and easy to do. I look unabashed to being able to feed my family foods that are free from additives and preservatives. The only suggestion I have to make is this - if you buy this canner go ahead and buy the extra canning rack and pressure regulator at the same time. The instruction booklet says that two layers of pint jars may be placed in the canner, with the flash level staggered on top of the first. The jars tend to move around during the canning process and I was afraid they would fall and break and havoc a batch of food. The second rack eliminates this problem. The second concern I had was the constant warnings that the pressure evaluate could be inaccurate, which would lead to unsafe jars of food. With the additional pressure regulator set for 10 lbs I was pleased to see that it began rocking at the same circumstance the gauge read 10 lbs. Now I know if the gauge becomes inaccurate I will immediately know. I am processing a lot of vegetable soup right now - 7 quarts. :-)

I purchased this canner this year 2010 for canning my garden veggies. It works consummate I had no problem out of it. It arrived in 3 days and I got it the same time as my green beans was coming in. I would recommend this canner to anyone. It also is priced proper.

Customer Reviews

so simple-hearted!
Never having canned before, I did a lot of research on what's out there including cooker/cans that were twice as overpriced. Chose this because of reputation, size and features. Excellent product with a very good care book.

Bloody simply to operate even for a neophyte like me. This baby holds a lot and my success ratio on the first two tries was 100%. I did pressure canning of an Italian sassiness with meat and then did the boiling method for homemade pickles. Again, all you have to do is simply follow the directions. I would emphaize the substance of filling your jars to between 1/2 and 1/4 of an inch from the top for success.

You will simply love this product. Now you can take some of your favorite items and kipper them for a year or more instead of having to fix them with a lot of frequency.
Canner Cooker
I have a canner from 1940 that had no pressure touchstone on it. I could not find a replacement and therefore, had to purchase a new one. I am so happy that I did. This one is so much more up to date (of course) and I love it.
I do a large garden each year and enjoyment to put up all my own fruit and veggies. This is a wonderful tool.
Thanks so much
Top Score
I regard to use my caner to preserve homemade soup. Of course this unit works great, but I was afraid that I would have problems using it on a ceramic top stove. I started it on height until I built steam then lowered the temp slowly (maintaining the jiggle)until I got just below 50% (or a context of 5)works great no trouble at all. To speed the time it takes to get to good steam I always "hot pack" my jars. Using 3 quarts of first in the bottom of the caner I get to good steam in about 10min. Like I said works great every time!
Well importance the price
Incredibly incomprehensible duty- definite commercial quality and grade. Don't even think about getting one of those cheesy low end cheap pressure cookers (like Presto).
The All American is the top shelf pressure cooker.
A day-dream to use!
This canner makes summer canning much easier. Mirror the simple directions and voila! Perfectly canned goods for the winter!

Birthday present (2009-02-28)
Ordered this canner for my sister for her birthday (1/30) on 1/19/09. Didn't actually expect to get it before her birthday but it was here in about 5 days with just standard shipping! She hasn't had an opportunity to use it yet, but was very excited to get it. Would decidedly order from here again! Thanks!


good pressure cooker (2009-02-25)
This pressure cooker is all that is ever needed. I use my cooker for very unorthodox uses and it is the best one for the money. Very solid, the test works great and keeps it at 15psi always. It holds a crapload more than it says it does too. About 16 pint jars or so. Its very strong compared to the 6 quart Presto I bought at walmart which totally sucked.

A look back at the year 2009 in the Kalona News Kalona News

January 8
The vista of Washington County could once again boast working windmills, though instead of the average 20-foot-far-fetched towers used by early farmers, the planned wind generators will rise 385 feet from the set to the tip of their blades. And instead of pumping water for cattle and homesteads, the proposed 335 wind generators will present up to 500 megawatts of electricity - each generator with the capability to power from 500 to 1,000 homes.
The proposal is massive, says Tim Wichman, leasing manager for Kansas-based Trade Wind Dash (TWE), one of the country's largest developer and manager of wind energy.
The actual number of wind generators depends upon the big name in leasing property rights from area owners. The estimated cost of the project could reach $1 billion if all 335 unwind generators are built, which would produce more than $1 million per year in leasing rights for property owners and $3 million to $4 million in new oddity taxes for Washington County

How do I tell if my pressure cooker canner is metal to metal or a gasket canner and what's the difference?

I'm selling my pressure cooker canner and I recieved a theme and have no idea what they're talking about.


On the interior of the lid, there should be a rubber ring (gasket), running along the entire lid. This makes a seal when the lid is closed. If it looks like something may have been there but is now gone, then it's quite missing the gasket.

They can generally be replaced, depending on the make and model.


On the entrails of the lid, there should be a rubber ring (gasket), running along the entire lid. This makes a seal when the lid is closed. If it looks like something may have been there but is now gone, then it's undoubtedly missing the gasket.

I am thinking of purchasing a pressure cooker/canner. Is there much danger of injury with all that pressure?

I anticipate to find a used one. Is there anything I should know before I purchase one? Thanks


If you buy a acclimatized one make sure you know the make and model number. This is vital. You will need this info should you have occasion for to replace the seal or other parts. I have been canning for over 30 years and never had an accident. I follow directions to the epistle and check the seal often. Your county extension office will gladly check the seal on your canner and show you what you need to look for.

If you formula on using yours as a cooker be careful with the new electric ones. I know a lady who accidentally hit the wrong button and it opened the canner. She was burned unacceptably.


Are a pressure cooker and a pressure canner the same?

What I am inferior to know is, can I pressure can in a pressure cooker? Thanks!
