The USDA recommends pressure canning as the only safe method for low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats, and poultry. The Presto 16-quart pressure canner is more than adequate for any home canning needs. It's a professional-quality tool, made of heavy-duty aluminum, with stay-cool handles and a strong-lock steel lid. An accompanying rack fits down into the pot to keep jars up off the bottom, so that liquid can circulate underneath. And it can do double duty as a large pressure cooker. It's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor.
The sturdy lid locks down during canning or cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam-release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. The pressure dial gauge gives an accurate reading so that pressure can be kept constant during canning. This pressure canner is also a cooker that's useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 50 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even sweets like English Plum Pudding and Brown Bread. Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork, or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture.
Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this aluminum pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The lid of the Presto 16-quart pressure canner is not immersible. In addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The dial gauge is delicate; detailed care instructions are found in the accompanying booklet. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures approximately 14-4/5 by 14-4/5 by 12 inches and carries a 12-year limited warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

The set up and directions are easy to understand and follow.
With over 30 years of pressure canning experience, I only bought this because my All American workhorse unit is too tall for the space in a secondary home kitchen. After using this as a canner a few times, I felt it was time to provide a review for the pressure canning characteristics (have not used as a cooker or hot water bath).
Pros: Light weight and reasonable price; compact size; portable; readily available replacement parts; heats surprisingly quick; good primer instruction booklet; dual pressure gauges are a double safety check; the weighted gauge ("rocker") is comparatively quiet (c/b a con also). A safety pop-up lock activates when under pressure (should be red color); No locks to tighten, just a twist of the inter locking lid. The etched volume lines inside the pot are somewhat difficult to see, but very practical and helpful. Maintenance is simple, minimal, and fast.
Cons: Only one weighted gauge of 15# (a 3- piece set is available for greater utility). Clamping the top securely can be a bit trying for small or weak hands because the short, slick "handles" require a kind of wide "lobster claw" pinch to close tightly; plus they do not provide much surface area to grip when lifting or carrying. The lid does not have a handle, so one is tempted to grab the dial gauge (don't). The "V" indicator on the rim is rather cryptic, and it would behoove the safety and function to be a contrasting color to the shiny aluminum.
Based on my experience so far, this is a great beginner's pressure cooker canner that won't break the bank; it is easily transportable and designed for "low-volume" production, but with a 7 qt./14 pint capacity, it is plenty for most family canning needs. The low-profile design and reduced height allows it to fit between a stove and overhead microwave oven. So far I am pleased to have this kitchen assistant that is actually getting more frequent use. It is easy on the arms and back muscles when carrying or maneuvering. Unless one prefers to buy a premium canner cooker, I would recommend this product be considered. An inner wire rack (12" diameter) that can lift/lower the jars is also a great accessory to canning operations.
Final note: Buyer beware: most pressure canner descriptions prominently advertise the volume capacity of the POT, not the maximum numbers of jars or food it will hold. Do not be mislead by this advertising that can be confusing.
Easy to use, fast, easy to clean, what else would you need?
It replaced my 20 YO 10 Qaurts pressure cooker, and it's good so far.
Top reviews from other countries
I am very happy with the pressure cooker. The instructions are clear and following them exactly will lead to great and safe home canning. I made 7 pints of BBQ sauce the day it came.
I decided to order the weighted regulator separately, which gives me the choice of a rocker at 5, 10, or 15 pounds pressure. Because finding a place to have the pressure gauge checked is next to impossible these days, I trust the regulator far more than the gauge. I ordered it from the US site, where even with the difference in exchange rates and shipping added in, was much, much less expensive.I had also ordered an extra canning rack from the US site. It is a perfect size for my tall stock pot, which is what I use for water bath canning tall quart jars, and is much cheaper than ordering from the Canadian site.
If you are new to home canning, and do not want to spend money on a book, I highly recommend you look for the USDA Complete Guide to Home Canning online. There does not seem to be a Canadian equivalent.
